“Wish” by Woongjae Han
Even in life’s small things
I want to know His heart
I want to walk on the narrow path
I want to know my smallness
And His greatness
I want to walk on the deeper path of hope
Rather than a high mountain over there
I want to be a hill here
Rather than lighting my paths alone
If I could shine on other’s paths
Just as I sing
And just as I say
I want to live an to die
Even in a small way
I want to be like him
I want to walk on the higher path of love
Call to Worship
As we begin our service, I want to share the very first prayer of Appenzeller as he had arrived at Jemulpo bay in Korea.
We came here on Easter. May He who on that day burst asunder the bars of death, break the bonds that bind the people, and bring them to the light and liberty of God’s children.

Genesis 12:1-4
12 Now the Lord said to Abram, ‘Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. 2 I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and the one who curses you I will curse; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’[a]
4 So Abram went, as the Lord had told him; and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran.
2 Corinthians 12:9
9 but he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power[c] is made perfect in weakness.’ So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
