2011 Lent Study Guide - University Presbyterian Church

I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people.
In the courts of the house of the Lord -- in your midst, O Jerusalem.
All: PRAISE THE LORD!
The Final Blessing
Leader: (Fill the fourth cup, the CUP OF MELCHIZEDECH.) Blessed are you, O Lord our God, King of
the universe, who creates the fruit of the vine.
All: (Drink the fourth cup.)
Leader: “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to
you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.” (Numbers 6:24-26)
—the Seder now ends according to custom and law—
All: Next year in Jerusalem!
Next year in the new Jerusalem!
Leader: “After singing a hymn, Jesus and his disciples went out.” (Matthew 26:30)
—Let us sing a hymn of praise—
Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah
Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah, pilgrim through this barren land.
I am weak, but Thou are mighty; hold me with Thy powerful hand.
Bread of Heaven, Bread of heaven, feed me till I want no more, feed me till I want no more.
Open now the crystal fountain, whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar, lead me all my journey through;
Strong Deliverer, Strong Deliverer, be Thou still my strength and shield,
Be Thou still my strength and shield.
When I tread the verge of Jordan, bid my anxious fears subside;
Death of death, and hell’s destruction, land me safe on Canaan’s side;
Songs of praises, songs of praises, I will ever give to Thee, I will ever give to Thee.
