3 In Christ Alone
In Christ alone my hope is found;
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This cornerstone, this solid ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My comforter, my all in all—
Here in the love of Christ I stand.
In Christ alone, Who took on flesh,
Fullness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save.
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied;
For ev’ry sin on Him was laid—
Here in the death of Christ I live.
There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain;
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me;
For I am His and He is mine—
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.
No guilt in life, no fear in death—
This is the pow’r of Christ in me;
From life’s first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow’r of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home—
Here in the pow’r of Christ I’ll stand.
4 I Will Follow
Where You go, I’ll go
Where You stay, I’ll stay
When You move, I’ll move
I will follow…
All Your ways are good
All Your ways are sure
I will trust in You alone
Higher than my sight
High above my life
I will trust in You alone
Where You go, I’ll go
Where You stay, I’ll stay
When You move, I’ll move
I will follow You
Who You love, I’ll love
How You serve I’ll serve
If this life I lose, I will follow You
I will follow You
Light unto the world
Light unto my life
I will live for You alone
You’re the one I seek
Knowing I will find
All I need in You alone, in You alone
In You there’s life everlasting
In You there’s freedom for my soul
In You there joy, unending joy and I will
5 Every promise of Your Word
From the breaking of the dawn to the setting of the sun,
I will stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
Words of power, strong to save, that will never pass away,
I will stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
For Your covenant is sure,
And on this I am secure—
I can stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
When I stumble and I sin, condemnation pressing in,
I will stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
You are faithful to forgive that in freedom I might live,
So I stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
Guilt to innocence restored,
You remember sins no more—
So I’ll stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
When I’m faced with anguished choice,
I will listen for Your voice,
And I’ll stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
Through this dark and troubled land
You will guide me with Your hand
As I stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
And You’ve promised to complete
Ev’ry work begun in me—
So I’ll stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
Hope that lifts me from despair, love that casts out ev’ry fear,
As I stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
Not forsaken, not alone, for the Comforter has come,
And I stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
Grace sufficient, grace for me,
Grace for all who will believe—We will stand on ev’ry promise of Your Word.
6 Speak O Lord
Speak, O Lord, as we come to You
To receive the food of Your Holy Word.
Take Your truth, plant it deep in us;
Shape and fashion us in Your likeness,
That the light of Christ might be seen today
In our acts of love and our deeds of faith.
Speak, O Lord, and fulfill in us
All Your purposes for Your glory.
Teach us, Lord, full obedience,
Holy reverence, true humility;
Test our thoughts and our attitudes
In the radiance of Your purity.
Cause our faith to rise; cause our eyes to see
Your majestic love and authority.
Words of pow’r that can never fail—
Let their truth prevail over unbelief.
Speak, O Lord, and renew our minds;
Help us grasp the heights of Your plans for us—
Truths unchanged from the dawn of time
That will echo down through eternity.
And by grace we’ll stand on Your promises,
And by faith we’ll walk as You walk with us.
Speak, O Lord, till Your church is built
And the earth is filled with Your glory.
7 Jesus Draw Me Ever Nearer
Jesus draw me ever nearer
As I labour through the storm.
You have called me to this passage,
and I’ll follow, though I’m worn.
May this journey bring a blessing,
May I rise on wings of faith;
And at the end of my heart’s testing,
With Your likeness let me wake.
Jesus guide me through the tempest;
Keep my spirit staid and sure.
When the midnight meets the morning,
Let me love You even more.
Let the treasures of the trial
Form within me as I go -
And at the end of this long passage,
Let me leave them at Your throne.
8 I Lift Up My Hands
Be still, there is a healer
His love is deeper than the sea
His mercy, it is unfailing
His arms are a fortress for the weak
Let faith arise
Let faith arise
I lift my hands to believe again
You are my refuge, You are my strength
As I pour out my heart, these things I remember
You are faithful, God, forever
Be still, there is a river
That flows from Calvary’s tree
A fountain for the thirsty
Pure grace that washes over me
So let faith arise
Let faith arise
Open my eyes
Open my eyes
I lift my hands to believe again
You are my refuge, You are my strength
As I pour out my heart, these things I remember
You are faithful, God

and we lift You up and magnify Your name 2x’s
As I look around and I see, all the works that Your hands have made,
the awesomeness of You, and how Your love will never fade,

I can’t describe Your glory divine, but as a token of my love,
this is what I’ll do, I’ll lift my hands and cry . . .Lord
There’s not enough words that I can say,
to tell You just how much, I appreciate, all the wonderful things, You’ve given me, Your lovingkindness, Your tender mercies,
It’s my desire, to praise You
And tell You how much, I love You
You’re worthy of all of the honor, Lord
You’re worthy of all, the praise
I don’t know how You could love me, how You could give me so much mercy,
You didn’t have to suffer and die for me way back on CalvaryI
I thank You, every morning, I thank You, and in the evening
I thank You, all day long
I thank You I thank You I thank You, Lord I thank You
I want to take a little time, right now and just say thank You Lord,
for all You’ve done for me and who You are

Conqueror, Triumphant and Mighty, Healer, Deliverer, Shield
and Defense, Strong Tower and My Best Friend, Omnipotent,
Omnipresent, Soon Coming King, Alpha, Omega, Lord of Everything

10 Pour Your Spirit Out
Lord, I seek You
Help me find You
How I need Your touch
Find my dry and
Broken places
Thirsty for Your love
Lord, forgive me
If I’ve wandered
Far away from You
You are all I’ve
Ever needed
Come and make me new
Pour Your Spirit out on me
Fall just like the rain
Saturate my thirsty soul
Come and fall afresh on me
Fill my cup again
Heal my heart and make me whole
I need You now
Pour Your Spirit out
11 Quiet Places
The world outside is calling me
But I hear You whisper softly
“Come follow me”
So I will run to Your embrace
For my spirit has been longing
To look upon Your face
So I will steal away
Yes, I will steal away
For I will find You
In quiet places
Where I will wait for You, my Lord
Help me find You
In quiet places
It’s Your voice I’m listening for
I’ll find You, Lord
There are secrets of Your heart
How I long for You to tell me
Just who You are
There are plans You have for me
Like a flower still unfolding
Not yet revealed
I will seek you
And I will find You
When I search for You with all my heart
12 Lovely
I watch Your wonders fill the sky
Over the mountains reaching high
The same majesty floods my life
I stand in awe
Lovely, there is none more lovely
In all the universe, there is no one lovelier
Worthy, there is none more worthy
I try to find the words, there’s so much more Your worthy of
Up on the cross with open arms
The love of God reaches far
The same majesty floods my heart
I stand in awe
As long as I live, I’ll praise You
Name above all, be lifted high
All of my days, I worship You
I worship You
Lovely, You are lovely
There is no one, there is no one more worthy
You are worthy
I try to find the words, there is no one lovelier
13 Change Me Lord
Here in the light of Your presence
I see how Holy You are
I’m bowing down, Lord, in reverence
You know my heart
You have become my Desire
Teach me to walk in Your ways
Come now and cleanse me with fire
This prayer I pray
Change Me, Lord
In the light of Your glory
Come make me Your own
Father, search me and know me
Let my heart be known
Change me, Lord
14 Beneath the Cross of Jesus
Beneath the cross of Jesus
I find a place to stand,
And wonder at such mercy
That calls me as I am;
For hands that should discard me
Hold wounds which tell me, “Come.”
Beneath the cross of Jesus
My unworthy soul is won.
Beneath the cross of Jesus
His family is my own—
Once strangers chasing selfish dreams,
Now one through grace alone.
How could I now dishonor
The ones that You have loved?
Beneath the cross of Jesus
See the children called by God.
Beneath the cross of Jesus—
The path before the crown—
We follow in His footsteps
Where promised hope is found.
How great the joy before us
To be His perfect bride;
Beneath the cross of Jesus
We will gladly live our lives.
15 Immortal Invisible
Immortal, You are not are like a man
That you change your mind
or change your plan
Invisible, our human eyes can’t see
The Depths of your majesty
You’re the God of forever and ever amen
The alpha, omega, beginning and end
We sing hallelujah
We worship in awe
Immortal, invisible God
Immortal, You are not bound by death
You’re the living God, my very breath
Invisible you are not bound by space
But your glory is filling this place
Yes your glory is filling this place
Immortal yet you once died for me,
to pay my debt to set me free
Invisible you will not always be
Cause you’re coming to reign as our king
And the saints will fall down at your feet
16 All to Us
Precious cornerstone, sure foundation
You are faithful to the end
We are waiting, on You, Jesus
We believe You’re all to us
Let the glory of Your name
be the passion of the Church
Let the righteousness of God
be a holy flame that burns
Let the saving love of Christ
be the measure of our lives
We believe You’re all to us
Only Son of God sent from Heaven
Hope and mercy at the cross
You are everything, You’re the Promise
Jesus, You are all to us
You’re all to us
You’re all to us
You’re all to us
Yes, You are
When this passing world is over
We will see You face to face
And forever we will worship
Jesus, You are all to us
17 Majesty of Heaven
Majesty of heaven
You’re glory fills the skies
Light of the world
You are lord of all
Humbled by your presence
Amazed by who you are
Nothing compares

To you the nations bow down
To you a creation cries out
Majesty
All things you hold together
Your name will stand forever
Majesty
You are majesty
Merciful and mighty
My heart is overwhelmed
You stand alone
You are lord of all
Your name above all others
High and exalted
Your kingdom shall reign forever
High and exalted
18 Starry Night
From the birds that sing, in the tallest trees
To the human life, of you and me
From the desert sands, to the place we stand
He is God of all, He is everything
I’m giving my life to the only One
Who makes the moon reflect the sun
Every starry night, that was His design
I’m giving my life to the only Son
Who was and is and yet to come
Let the praises ring, ‘cause He is everything
‘Cause He is everything
From the autumn leaves, that will ride the breeze
To the faith it takes, to pray and sing
From the painted sky, to my plank filled eye
He is God of all, He is everything Chorus
Ohhhhhh, everything
Hallelujah Hallelujah I believe
I’m giving my life to the only One
Who makes the moon reflect the sun
On that starry night, that He changed my life
I’m giving my life to the only Son
Who gave me hope when I had none
So let the praises ring, oh let the praises ring
I’m giving my life to the only One
who makes the moon reflect the sun.
Every starry night, that was His design.
I’m giving my life to the only Son,
who was and is and yet to come
and the Angels sing, that He is heavenly
So let the Praises ring ‘Cause He everything
19 Come People of a Risen King
Come, people of the Risen King,
Who delight to bring Him praise;
Come all and tune your hearts to sing
To the Morning Star of grace.
From the shifting shadows of the earth
We will lift our eyes to Him,
Where steady arms of mercy reach
To gather children in.
Rejoice, Rejoice! Let every tongue rejoice!
One heart, one voice; O Church of Christ, rejoice!
Come, those whose joy is morning sun,
And those weeping through the night;
Come, those who tell of battles won,
And those struggling in the fight.
For His perfect love will never change,
And His mercies never cease,
But follow us through all our days
With the certain hope of peace.
Come, young and old from every land -
Men and women of the faith;
Come, those with full or empty hands -
Find the riches of His grace.
Over all the world, His people sing -
Shore to shore we hear them call
The Truth that cries through every age:
“Our God is all in all”!
20 I Will Rise
There’s a peace I’ve come to know
Though my heart and flesh may fail
There’s an anchor for my soul
I can say “It is well”
Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
Victory is won
He is risen from the dead
And I will rise when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagles’ wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And rise . . . I will rise
There’s a day that’s drawing near
When this darkness breaks to light
And the shadows disappear
And my faith shall be my eyes
And I hear the voice of many angels sing,
“Worthy is the Lamb”
And I hear the cry of every longing heart,
“Worthy is the Lamb”
And I hear the voice of many angels sing,
“Worthy is the Lamb”
21 Our God
Water You turned into wine
Open the eyes of the blind
There’s no one like You
None like You
Into the darkness You shine
Out of the ashes we rise
There’s no one like You
None like You
Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome in power
Our God, Our God…
Into the darkness You shine
Out of the ashes we rise
There’s no One like You
None like You.
Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome in power
Our God, Our God…
Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome in power
Our God, Our God…
And if Our God is for us, then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?
And if Our God is for us, then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?
What can stand against?

Resting On Our Savior’s Truths
Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those
things which were told her from the Lord. LUKE 1:45
I am blessed because I believe that the Lord will do what He says.
The law of the Lord is perfect,
converting the soul;
The testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple;
The statutes of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart;
The commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes;
The fear of the Lord is clean,
enduring forever;
The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous
altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold,
Yea, than much fine gold;
Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
Moreover by them Your servant is warned,
And in keeping them there is great reward.
Psalm 19:7–11
