Reading  Isaiah 65: 17-19 & 25
Read by Eilidh Robertson

Common English Bible

New creation and new Jerusalem

17 Look! I’m creating a new heaven and a new earth:
past events won’t be remembered;
they won’t come to mind.

18 Be glad and rejoice forever
in what I’m creating,
because I’m creating Jerusalem as a joy
and her people as a source of gladness.

19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad about
my people.
No one will ever hear the sound of weeping
or crying in it again…

25 Wolf and lamb will graze together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox,
but the snake—its food will be dust.
They won’t hurt or destroy at any place on
my holy mountain, says the Lord.

 

Anthem - This Joyful Eastertide
Words: G. R. Woodward (1848 to 1934)
Music: Dutch Carol arranged by Philip Ledger (1937 to 2012)

This joyful Eastertide, away with sin and sorrow!
My Love, the Crucified, has sprung to life this morrow:

Had Christ, who once was slain, not burst His three-day prison,
our faith had been in vain; but now has Christ arisen!

My flesh in hope shall rest and for a season slumber
till trump from east to west shall wake the dead in number.

Death’s flood has lost its chill since Jesus crossed the river;
Lover of souls, from ill my passing soul deliver

 

Reading - John 20:1 - 18
Read by Kay McIntosh

New Revised Standard Version

The Resurrection of Jesus

20 Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene
came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the
tomb. 2 So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one
whom Jesus loved, and said to them, ‘They have taken the Lord out of the
tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him.’

3 Then Peter and the other disciple set out and went towards the tomb. 4
The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and
reached the tomb first. 5 He bent down to look in and saw the linen
wrappings lying there, but he did not go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came,
following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen wrappings lying
there, 7 and the cloth that had been on Jesus’ head, not lying with the linen
wrappings but rolled up in a place by itself. 8 Then the other disciple, who
reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed; 9 for as yet
they did not understand the scripture, that he must rise from the dead. 10
Then the disciples returned to their homes.

Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene

11 But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb. As she wept, she bent over
to look into the tomb; 12 and she saw two angels in white, sitting where
the body of Jesus had been lying, one at the head and the other at the feet.
13 They said to her, ‘Woman, why are you weeping?’ She said to them,
‘They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.’

14 When she had said this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing there,
but she did not know that it was Jesus. 15 Jesus said to her, ‘Woman, why
are you weeping? For whom are you looking?’ Supposing him to be the
gardener, she said to him, ‘Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where
you have laid him, and I will take him away.’ 16 Jesus said to her, ‘Mary!’
She turned and said to him in Hebrew, ‘Rabbouni!’ (which means Teacher).

17 Jesus said to her, ‘Do not hold on to me, because I have not yet
ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am
ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’’ 18
Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, ‘I have seen the
Lord’; and she told them that he had said these things to her.

Hymn 194 - This is the Day - v1 and v2
(t. This is the Day)

This is the day,
this is the day that the Lord has made,
that the Lord has made.
We will rejoice,
we will rejoice and be glad in it
and be glad in it.
This is the day that the Lord has made,
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day,
this is the day that the Lord has made.

This is the day,
this is the day when he rose again,
when he rose again.
We will rejoice,
we will rejoice and be glad in it,
and be glad in it.
This is the day when he rose again,
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day,
this is the day when he rose again

Hymn 417 - Now the green blade riseth
(t. Noel Nouvelet)

Now the green blade riseth from the buried grain,
wheat that in dark earth many days has lain;
love lives again, that with the dead has been:

Love is come again,
like wheat that springeth green.

In the grave they laid him, Love whom men had slain,
thinking that never he would wake again,
laid in the earth like grain that sleeps unseen:

Forth he came at Easter, like the risen grain,
he that for three days in the grave had lain,
quick from the dead my risen Lord is seen:

When our hearts are wintry, grieving, or in pain,
thy touch can call us back to life again,
fields of our hearts that dead and bare have been:

John Macleod Campbell Crum (1872-1958)

Sermon – He is Risen Indeed!
Revd Dr Sandy Forsyth

Hymn 413 The day of resurrection!
(t. Ellacombe)

The day of resurrection!
Earth, tell it out abroad;
the passover of gladness,
the passover of God!
From death to life eternal,
from sin's dominion free,
our Christ has brought us over
with hymns of victory.

Our hearts be pure from evil,
that we may see aright
the Lord in rays eternal
of resurrection light;
and, listening to his accents,
may hear, so calm and plain,
his own 'All hail!' and, hearing,
may raise the victor strain.

Now let the heavens be joyful
and earth the song begin,
the round world keep triumph,
and all that is therein;
let all things seen and unseen
their notes of gladness blend,
for Christ the Lord has risen,
our joy that has no end.

 

Prayer for Others

 

Hymn 419 - Thine be the glory
(t. Maccabaeus)

Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won;
angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave-clothes, where thy body lay.

Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won.

Lo! Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
let the Church with gladness hymns of triumph sing,
for her Lord now liveth; death hath lost its sting.

No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of Life;
life is naught without thee: aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors, through thy deathless love:
bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above.

Closing Responses
From words of Elizabeth Dilley
One: Come out! Jesus commands,
All: And calls us from the tombs of our existence
into the brightness of a new day.
One: Come out! Jesus cries,
All: And unbinds us from the chains of our past.
One: Come out! Jesus calls,
All: And entices us into a world filled with grace and possibility.
One: So, we go out!
All: Into a world that needs our life and our being
One: We go out!
All: Into a world that needs the Spirit of God,
carried on our lips and in our loving arms.
One: We go out!
All: Into the world to live as God’s resurrected people

Organ Voluntary

THIS MORNING’S CHAMBER GROUP MUSIC Jacques (or Jakob) Arcadelt
was a Franco-Flemish Renaissance composer. While he ended his career as
Choirmaster to the Cardinal of Lorraine, the motet was probably written
during his time as ‘Master of the boys’ at the Sistine Chapel in Rome. As is
appropriate for the words, this elegant but lively piece has four parts
intertwining in complex and decorated layers of cross rhythms.

Sir Philip Ledger was Director of the Choir at King’s College, Cambridge
(for whom this anthem will have been written) and latterly was Director of
The Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama (now the Royal Scottish
Conservatoire) The anthem is an inventive arrangement of the hymn tune
‘Vreuchten’ found in ‘David’s Psalmen’ of Amsterdam in 1685. The verses
are set in canon. The refrain has each line separated by an interjection from
the organ.

Hymn 364   All glory, laud, and honour
(t. St. Theodulph)

All glory, laud, and honour,
to you, Redeemer, King,
to whom the lips of children
made sweet hosannas ring!

You are the King of Israel,
great David's royal Son,
now in the Lord's name coming,
the King and Blessed One.

 The company of angels
is praising you on high,
while we and all creation
together make reply.

 The people of the Hebrews
with palms before you went;
our praise and prayer and anthems
before you we present.

 To you before your Passion
they sang their hymns of praise;
to you, now high exalted,
our melody we raise.

 Their praises you accepted;
accept the prayers we bring,
in every good delighting,
our great and gracious King:

St Theodulph of Orleans (d.821)
Gloria, laus et honor

 

Prayer of Approach, Confession & The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom
come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our
daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And
lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the
kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

 

The Collect - Said by all
From words of Kathy Galloway
O Christ, you entered the city as an ordinary man, not in style but
simply, yet still you caused uproar, and questions everywhere; you
drew the expectations of a hungry crowd, and brought buried conflicts
to the light. May we, who are sometimes swayed by the crowd’s
approval, and who often avoid conflict for fear of its cost to us, hold
fast to the gospel of truth and justice and follow faithfully in your
way of compassion and solidarity with those who are needy and
excluded, wherever it may lead us.

 

 

Hymn MP 167    Give me oil in my lamp
(t. Sing Hosanna)    Omitting v2

1. Give me oil in my lamp, keep me burning.
Give me oil in my lamp, I pray.
Give me oil in my lamp, keep me burning.
Keep me burning till the break of day.

Sing hosanna, sing hosanna,
sing hosanna to the King of kings!
Sing hosanna, sing hosanna,
sing hosanna to the King!

3. Give me joy in my heart, keep me singing.
Give me joy in my heart, I pray.
Give me joy in my heart, keep me singing.
Keep me singing till the break of day.

4. Give me faith in my heart, keep me praying.
Give me faith in my heart, I pray.
Give me faith in my heart, keep me praying.
Keep me praying till the break of day.

 

Reading Psalm 118:19 - 29
Read by Ralph Smith

19 Open to me the gates of righteousness,
that I may enter through them
and give thanks to the LORD.
20 This is the gate of the LORD;
the righteous shall enter through it.
21 I thank you that you have answered me
and have become my salvation.
22 The stone that the builders rejected
has become the chief cornerstone.

23 This is the LORD’s doing;
it is marvellous in our eyes.
24 This is the day that the LORD has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Save us, we beseech you, O LORD!
O LORD, we beseech you, give us success!

26 Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the LORD.
We bless you from the house of the LORD.
27 The LORD is God,
and he has given us light.
Bind the festal procession with branches,
up to the horns of the altar.
28 You are my God, and I will give thanks to you;
you are my God, I will extol you.
29 O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures for ever.

Anthem - Lift up your heads, O ye gates
Words: From Psalm 24: 7 - 10
Music: William Mathias (1934 - 1992)

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors;
and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord
strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O ye
gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall
come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory.

Reading Luke 19:28 - 42 & John 12:12 - 13
Read by Ralph Smith

Luke 19:28 - 42

Jesus’ Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem

28 After he had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

29 When he had come near Bethphage and Bethany, at the place called
the Mount of Olives, he sent two of the disciples, 30 saying, ‘Go into the
village ahead of you, and as you enter it you will find tied there a colt
that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks
you, “Why are you untying it?” just say this: “The Lord needs it.”’ 32 So
those who were sent departed and found it as he had told them. 33 As
they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, ‘Why are you untying
the colt?’ 34 They said, ‘The Lord needs it.’ 35 Then they brought it to
Jesus; and after throwing their cloaks on the colt, they set Jesus on it.
36 As he rode along, people kept spreading their cloaks on the road. 37
As he was now approaching the path down from the Mount of Olives, the
whole multitude of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud
voice for all the deeds of power that they had seen, 38 saying,

‘Blessed is the king
who comes in the name of the Lord!
Peace in heaven,
and glory in the highest heaven!’

39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, ‘Teacher, order your
disciples to stop.’ 40 He answered, ‘I tell you, if these were silent, the
stones would shout out.’

Jesus Weeps over Jerusalem
41 As he came near and saw the city, he wept over it, 42 saying, ‘If you,
even you, had only recognised on this day the things that make for
peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.

John 12:12 - 13

12 The next day the great crowd that had come to the festival heard that
Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. 13 So they took branches of palm trees
and went out to meet him, shouting,

‘Hosanna!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord—
the King of Israel!’

 

 

Hymn 365   Ride on! ride on in majesty!
(t. Winchester New)

 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
Hark! all the tribes 'Hosanna!' cry;
O Saviour meek, pursue thy road
with palms and scattered garments strowed.

 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die;
O Christ, thy triumphs now begin
o'er captive death and conquered sin.

 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
The winged squadrons of the sky
look down with sad and
wondering eyes
to see the approaching sacrifice.

 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh;
the Father on his sapphire throne
awaits his own anointed Son.

 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die;
bow thy meek head to mortal pain,
then take, O God, thy power, and reign.

 

 


Sermon – ‘Prince of Peace’
Revd Dr Sandy Forsyth

 

Hymn 710   'I have a dream', a man once said
(t. Repton)

'I have a dream', a man once said,
'where all is perfect peace;
where men and women, black and white,
stand hand in hand, and all unite
in freedom and in love.'

But in this world of bitter strife
the dream can often fade;
reality seems dark as night,
we catch but glimpses of the light
Christ sheds on humankind.

Fierce persecution, war, and hate
are raging everywhere;
God calls us now to pay the price
through struggles and through sacrifice
of standing for the right.

So dream the dreams and sing the songs,
but never be content;
for thoughts and words don't ease the pain:
unless there's action, all is vain;
faith proves itself in deeds.

Lord, give us vision, make us strong,
help us to do your will;
don't let us rest until we see
your love throughout humanity
uniting us in peace.

 

Prayer for Others

 

 

Hymn 200   Christ is made the sure foundation
(t. Westminster Abbey)

Christ is made the sure foundation,
Christ the head and corner-stone,
chosen of the Lord and precious,
binding all the Church in one,
holy Zion's help for ever,
and her confidence alone.

To this temple, where we call you,
come, O Lord of Hosts, today:
with your constant loving-kindness,
hear your servants as they pray,
and your fullest benediction
shed within its walls alway.

Here bestow on all your servants
what they ask of you to gain,
what they gain from you for ever
with the blessed to retain,
and hereafter in your glory
evermore with you to reign.

Praise and honour to the Father,
praise and honour to the Son,
praise and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
One in might and One in glory
while unending ages run.

Organ Voluntary

THIS MORNING’S CHAMBER GROUP MUSIC   David Morgan lives and
works in Norfolk. The acerbic style of this anthem reflect the work of his
teacher William Matthias, the composer of today’s anthem. Declaimed
fanfares of “Hosannas” throughout the piece are contrasted with darker
unison settings of the inner text. The music of the Welsh composer,
William Mathias, Professor of Music at the University of Wales, is
typically characterised by lively rhythms and robust word settings.
These are particular features of this fanfare-like Psalm setting. The
insistent questioning of the repeated “who is the King of Glory?” is
answered by an enthusiastic affirmation.
