In our baptism (our covenant with
God) we take on our Christian
identity. We are to live as disciples of
Christ and keep the faith. The life of
faith is modelled on the pattern of
Jesus, the suffering servant, whose self
-denying love for others led to the
cross.

one God, now and for ever. Amen.

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns
1st March 2015
Entrance Hymn
New every morning is the love
Our wakening and uprising prove;
Through sleep and darkness safely brought,
Restored to life and power and thought.
New mercies, each returning day,
Hover around us while we pray;
New perils pasts, new sins forgiven,
New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.
If on our daily course our mind
Be set to hallow all we find,
New treasures still, of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.
Only, O Lord, in your dear love
Fit us for perfect rest above;
And help us, this and every day,
To live more nearly as we pray.
John Keble (1792-1866) alt.

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns
1st March 2015
Gradual Hymn
Offertory Hymn:
Lord, be my guardian and my guide,
And hear me when I call;
Let not my slippery footsteps slide,
And hold me lest I fall.
At the name of Jesus
Every knee shall bow,
Every tongue confess him
King of Glory now:
This the Father’s pleasure
That we call him Lord,
Who from the beginning
Was the mighty Word.
The world, the flesh, and Satan dwell
Around the path I tread;
O save me from the snares of hell,
O quickener of the dead.
And if I tempted am to sin,
And outward things are strong,
O keep, O Lord, keep watch within,
And save my soul from wrong.
Still let me ever watch and pray,
And feel that I am frail;
That if the tempter cross my way,
Yet he may not prevail.
Humbled for a season
To receive a name
From the lips of sinners
Unto whom he came,
Faithfully he bore it
Spotless to the last,
Brought it back victorious
When from death he passed.
In your hearts enthrone him,
There let him make new
Isaac Williams (1802-1865) alt. All that is not holy,
CP 385
All that is not true.
TUNE: Abridge
He is God the Saviour,
He is Christ the Lord,
Ever to be worshipped,
Trusted and adored.
When this same Lord Jesus
Shall appear again
In his Father’s glory
There with him to reign,
Then may we adore him,
All before him bow,
As our hearts confess him
King of Glory now.

St Saviour’s Cathedral Hymns
1st March 2015
Final Hymn:
“Take up your cross,” the Saviour said,
“If you would my disciple be;
Take up your cross with willing heart
And humbly follow after me.”
Take up your cross; let not its weight
Fill your weak spirit with alarm;
His strength shall bear your spirit up
And brace your heart and nerve your arm.
Take up your cross, nor heed the shame,
And let your foolish pride be still:
Your Lord refused not even to die
Upon a cross, on Calvary’s hill.
Take up your cross, then, in his strength
And calmly every danger brave;
It guides you to a better home
And leads to victory o’er the grave.
Take up your cross and follow Christ,
Nor think till death to lay it down;
For only he who bears the cross
May hope to wear the glorious crown.

24.
O praise the Lord, all | you that | fear him :
hold him in honour, O seed of Jacob,
and let the seed of | Israel | stand in | awe of him.
25. For he has not despised nor abhorred the poor man | in his | misery :
nor did he hide his face from him, but | heard him | when he | cried.
26. From you springs my praise in the great | congreg- | ation :
I will pay my vows in the | sight of | all that | fear you;
27. The meek shall eat of the sacrifice | and be | satisfied :
and those who seek the Lord shall praise him
may their | hearts re- | joice for | ever! REFRAIN
28. Let all the ends of the earth remember and | turn . to the | Lord :
and let all the families of the | nations | worship . be- | fore him.
29. For the kingdom | is the | Lord’s :
and he shall be | ruler | over . the | nations.
30. How can those who sleep in the earth | do him | homage :
or those that descend to the | dust bow | down be- | fore him?
31. But he has saved my life | for him- | self :
and | my pos- | terity . shall | serve him.
†32. This shall be told of my Lord to a future | gener- | ation :
and his righteousness declared to a people yet un- | born,
that | he has | done it. REFRAIN

Outreach Poster February 2015
Whether it’s sporting glory, money, marriage, holidays, a
successful career, a nice home or even just good health, we
all thirst for something. But have you ever stopped to think
if you can be truly satisfied in life? Or will you spend the rest
of your years chasing happiness? In a restless world, only
God can satisfy. He promises security and long-lasting
happiness. He acts for your goodness and quenches your thirsts. So, why not get a Bible and
start reading about this astounding good news?

MINISTRY OF HOSPITALITY
We are looking for people interested in
joining the hospitality ministry as
Cathedral minders. It is not an onerous task,
shifts are only 3 hours. It is a great shame
not to have our beautiful Cathedral open for
visitors as often as we can. If you are
interested, contact the office (4821.2206) or
Fred Rainger (4821.5725)
In St. Saviour’s we have The Lady
Chapel. It is an ancient tradition to have
such a chapel in churches. In this chapel
we remember Mary and we are also able
to think about our mothers.
Cathedral AGM
The Cathedral Annual General Meeting
will be held on Sunday March 22nd
following the 10 o’clock service.
BCA BOX HOLDERS – Could you
please ensure that your Box is
returned to the Cathedral Office no
later than 18th March 2015.
Many thanks. Ray Smith (BCA
Representative).
Our Mission programme for 2015:
1st quarter: Diocese of Willochra
2nd quarter: Melanesian Brothers
(an ABM project)
3rd quarter: Anglicare Winter Appeal
4th quarter: Al Ahli Anglican Hospital
in Gaza (an ABM project)
Behind the altar in the chapel is a
weaving of Mary and her child Jesus. It
was a gift of the Friends of the Cathedral.
It is a very nice art work and people who
know about these things say it is of a high
quality. It certainly adds to the ambience
of the chapel.
The weaving also serves another purpose.
It disguises a plumber’s drain that was
left after the bell tower was added to the
Cathedral!
Cathedral Food Pantry’s stocks are
now replenished. Thank you for your
contributions. Ongoing status will be
advised.
Finding it difficult to
read the hymns and
announcements?
Ask the sides person on duty for a
large print copy of the
pew sheet.
