“O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing” – Hymn #76
1. O for a thousand tongues to sing my great Redeemer’s praise,
The glories of my God and King, the triumphs of His grace!
2. Jesus! the name that charms our fears, that bids our sorrows cease;
‘Tis music in the sinner’s ears, ‘tis life, and health, and peace.
3. He breaks the power of canceled sin, He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean; His blood availed for me.
4. Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb, your loosened tongues employ;
Ye blind, behold your Savior come; and leap, ye lame, for joy.
5. My gracious Master and my God, assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad, the honors of Thy name.
“We Will Glorify”
1. We will glorify the King of kings, we will glorify the Lamb;
We will glorify the Lord of Lords, Who is the great "I AM".
2. Lord Jehovah reigns in majesty, we will bow before His throne;
We will worship Him in righteousness, we will worship Him alone.
3. He is Lord of heaven, Lord of earth, He is Lord of all who live;
He is Lord above the universe, all praise to Him we give.
4. Hallelujah to the King of kings, hallelujah to the Lamb;
Hallelujah to the Lord of lords, Who is the great I AM.
“Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing” – Hymn #2
1. Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise His name — I’m fixed upon it —
Name of God’s redeeming love.
2. Hitherto Thy love has blest me; Thou has brought me to this place;
And I know Thy hand will bring me safely home by Thy good grace.
Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger, bought me with His precious blood.
3. O to grace how great a debtor daily I’m constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to Thee:
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love;
Here’s my heart, O take and seal it; seal it for Thy courts above.
“Precious Children”
1. Broken and defiled, clinging to our filth,
We gloried in our shame, running far from You,
Still Your mercy sought and saved us.
Chorus: Hallelujah, we belong to You.
You have washed our stains
And have raised us up with Christ,
Precious children in Your eyes.
2. You gave Your only Son, Your joy and Your delight.
You nailed Him to the cross, You crushed Him for our sin.
How could You love us like You love Him?
Chorus twice
“Untitled Hymn”
1. Weak and wounded sinner, lost and left to die,
Oh raise your head for Love is passing by.
Come to Jesus, come to Jesus, come to Jesus, and live.
2. Now your burden’s lifted and carried far away,
And precious blood has washed away the stain.
So sing to Jesus, sing to Jesus, sing to Jesus, and live.
3. Like a newborn baby, don’t be afraid to crawl,
And remember when you walk sometimes we fall.
So fall on Jesus, fall on Jesus, fall on Jesus and live.
4. Sometimes the way is lonely, and steep and filled with pain,
So if your sky is dark, and pours the rain,
Then cry to Jesus, cry to Jesus, cry to Jesus and live.
5. When the love spills over and music fills the night,
And when you can’t contain the joy inside,
Then dance to Jesus, dance to Jesus, dance to Jesus and live.
6. With your final heartbeat, kiss the world good-bye
And go in peace and laugh on glory’s side
And fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus and live.
Responsive Reading: 1 Peter 1:22 – 2:5
Leader: Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth
for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart,
since you have been born again, not of perishable seed
but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God;
All: For “All flesh is like grass and all its glory
like the flower of grass.
The grass withers, and the flower falls,
but the word of the Lord remains forever.”
Leader: And this word is the good news that was preached to you.
So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy
and all slander.
All: Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk,
that by it you may grow up into salvation—
if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.
Leader: As you come to Him, a living stone rejected by men
but in the sight of God chosen and precious,
you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house,
to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices
acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
“Stand”
1. Lord, I kneel at Your throne needing grace for the hour,
Holding onto Your Word, knowing Yours is the power.
Pressing on for the prize, through the sorrow and pain,
May I always rejoice and delight in Your name.
2. Anything I thought gain, let me count it as loss.
May the fragrance I leave be of Christ and the Cross.
Any worldly success, any measure of fame,
May it glorify You for the sake of Your name.
3. In my talents and gifts, in the Word I apply,
May humility reign in the strength You supply.
And should I persevere in the faith You have sown,
Then Your glory I’ll sing when I stand at Your throne.
Chorus: I’ll stand on Your promises.
I’ll stand in the grace You give.
I’ll stand when the darkness falls.
Upheld by Your right hand, I’ll stand.
“I Will Delight in the Law of the Lord”
I will delight in the law of the Lord, I will meditate day and night.
Then like a tree firmly planted I’ll be, grounded in Your Word.
Blessed is the one who follows the way of the Lord,
Blessed is the one.
I will delight in the law of the Lord, I will meditate day and night.
Then like a tree firmly planted I’ll be, grounded in Your Word.
Blessed is the one who follows the way of the Lord,
Blessed is the one.
