    Doxology (Old Hundredth)

    You faithful servants of the Lord, Sing out his praise in one accord,
    May God who made the earth and sky, Pour out His blessings from on high.

    Chorus:   Amen, Amen

    Amen, Amen

    All people that on earth do dwell, Serve Him with joy, His praises tell;
    Lift up a song with loudest voice, Come now before Him and rejoice.

    Alt Chorus:       Alleluia, Alleluia

    Praise God from whom all blessings flow, Praise Him all creatures here below
    Praise Him above, ye Heavenly host, Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

    Lord, Let Your Glory Fall

    Lord, let Your glory fall as on that ancient day,
    songs of enduring love, and then Your glory came.
    And as a sign to You that we would love the same,
    our hearts will sing that song: God, let Your glory come.

    Chorus:You are good, You are good, and Your love endures. (2X)
    You are good, You are good, and Your love endures today.

    Voices in unison giving You thanks and praise,
    joined by the instruments and then Your glory came.
    Your presence like a cloud upon that ancient day,
    the priests were overwhelmed because Your glory came.

    A sacrifice was made, and then Your fire came;
    they knelt upon the ground, and with one voice they praised.

    Alleluia

    Father we have come, To bow down in worship
    Lifting up our hearts, We bow down in praise

    Chorus 1:Alleluia, Lover of my soul, Alleluia
    With all of heaven we are singing
    (With all of heaven we are singing) 2X

    Bright and morning star, Your eyes blaze like fire
    Shining like the sun, You’re our one desire

    Bridge: All the angels cry out holy is the Lord (God)
    All the earth replies holy are You
    All the angels cry out holy is the Lord (God)
    All the earth replies holy are You

    Chorus 2: Alleluia, Alleluia
    Alleluia, Holy are You

    Worthy of It All

    All the saints and angels
    They bow before Your throne
    All the elders cast their crowns
    Before the Lamb of God and sing

    Chorus 1: You are worthy of it all
    You are worthy of it all
    For from You are all things
    And to You are all things
    You deserve the glory

    Interlude: Singing oh oh oh oh oh

    Bridge: Day and night, night and day let incense arise
    Day and night, night and day let incense arise
    Day and night, night and day let incense arise
    Day and night, night and day let incense arise

    His Banner Over Me is Love

    He brought me to His banqueting table (echo)
    He brought me to His banqueting table (echo)

    And His banner (echo)
    over me (echo)
    is love

    I am my beloved’s and He is mine (echo)
    Yes, I am my beloved’s and He is mine (echo)

    And His banner (echo)
    over me (echo)
    is love

    Yes, His banner (echo)
    over me (echo)
    is love

    Chorus:  And we can feel the love
    Of God in this place
    We believe in Your goodness
    We receive Your grace
    We delight ourselves at Your table, Oh God
    You do all things well
    Just look at our lives

    Before the Throne of God Above

     Before the throne of God above, I have a strong a perfect plea
    A great High Priest whose name is Love, Who ever lives and pleads for me

    My name is graven on His hands, my name is written on His heart
    I know that while in heaven He stands
    No tongue can bid me thence depart (2X)

    Chorus:   Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Praise the One, risen Son of God!

    When Satan tempts me to despair and tells me of the guilt within
    Upward I look and see Him there, Who made an end of all my sin

    Because the sinless Savior died, my sinful soul is counted free
    For God the Just is satisfied
    To look on Him and pardon me (2X)

    Behold Him there the risen Lamb, my perfect, spotless Righteousness
    The great unchangeable I AM, the King of glory and of grace

    One with Himself I cannot die, my soul is purchased by His blood
    My life is hid with Christ on high
    With Christ my Savior and my God

     

    Be Unto Your Name

    We are a moment, You are forever — Lord of the ages, God before time
    We are a vapor, You are eternal — Love everlasting, reigning on high

    Chorus:   Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain
    Highest praises, honor and glory, be unto Your name, be unto Your name

    We are the broken, You are the healer — Jesus, Redeemer, mighty to save
    You are the love song we’ll sing forever — Bowing before You, blessing Your name

     

    Untitled Hymn (Come to Jesus)

    Weak and wounded sinner, lost and left to die
    O raise your head, for Love is passin’ by
    Come to Jesus, Come to Jesus, Come to Jesus and live

    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

    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

    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

    O and when the love spills over, and music fills the night
    And when you can’t contain your joy inside
    Then dance for Jesus, Dance for Jesus, Dance for Jesus and live

    And with your final heartbeat, kiss the world good-bye
    Then go in peace and laugh on glory’s side
    And fly to Jesus, Fly to Jesus, Fly to Jesus and live

     

    Heart of Worship

    When the music fades, all is stripped away
    And I simply come
    Longing just to bring something that’s of worth
    That will bless Your heart

    Pre-Chorus: I’ll bring You more than a song
    For a song in itself is not what You have required
    You search much deeper within
    Through the way things appear
    You’re looking into my heart 

    Chorus: I’m coming back to the heart of worship
    And it’s all about You, all about You, Jesus
    I’m sorry Lord for the thing I’ve made it
    When it’s all about You, all about You, Jesus

    King of endless worth, no one could express
    How much You deserve
    Though I’m weak and poor all I have is Yours,
    Every single breath

     

    I Am the Bread of Life

    I am the bread of life.
    He who comes to Me shall not hunger;
    He who believes in Me shall not thirst.
    No one can come to Me
    unless the Father draw him.

    Chorus: And I will raise him up,
    and I will raise him up,
    and I will raise him up on the last day.

    The bread that I shall give
    is My flesh for the life of the world,
    and if you eat of this bread,
    you shall live for ever,
    you shall live for ever.

    I am the resurrection,
    I am the life.
    He who believes in Me
    even if he die,
    he shall live for ever.

    Up Above My Head (traditional spiritual)

    Up above my head, (echo)                   I hear music in the air (echo)
    Up above my head, (echo)                   I hear music in the air (echo)
    Up above my head, (echo)                   I hear music in the air (echo)
    And I really do believe. (echo)             Heaven’s coming right here (echo)

    Let your kingdom come. (echo)           Let your will be done (echo)
    Right here on Earth (echo)                   as it is up there. (echo)

    I Came to Praise the Lord

    I don’t know what you came to do, but I came to praise the Lord (4X)
    Hallelu Hallelu Hallellujah

    Hallellujah Hallelujah (4x)

     

    Praise the Name of Jesus

    Praise the name of Jesus, Praise the name of Jesus
    He’s my rock. He’s my fortress. He’s my deliverer. In Him will I trust
    Praise the Name of Jesus

     

    Raise a Hallelujah

    I raise a hallelujah in the presence of my enemies
    I raise a hallelujah louder than the unbelief
    I raise a hallelujah, my weapon is a melody
    I raise a hallelujah, heaven comes to fight for me

    Chorus 1:  I’m gonna sing in the middle of the storm
    Louder and louder, you’re gonna hear my praises roar
    Up from the ashes hope will arise
    Death is defeated, the King is alive!

    I raise a hallelujah with everything inside of me
    I raise a hallelujah, I will watch the darkness flee
    I raise a hallelujah in the middle of the mystery
    I raise a hallelujah, Fear, you lost your hold on me

    Bridge:  Lift Him up higher, In the presence of my enemies
    Lift Him up higher, Louder than the unbelief
    Lift Him up higher, My weapon is a melody
    Lift Him up higher, Heaven comes to fight for me

    Tag:  I raise a hallelujah

    Tremble

    Peace, bring it all to peace, The storms surrounding me, Let it break at Your name
    Still, call the sea to still, The rage in me to still, Every wave at Your name

    Chorus: Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
    Jesus, Jesus, You silence fear
    Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble, Jesus, Jesus

    Breathe, call these bones to live, Call these lungs to sing, Once again I will praise

    Bridge:  Your name is a light that the shadows can’t deny, Your name cannot be overcome
    Your name is alive, forever lifted high, Your name cannot be overcome

    Stand By Me

    When the storms of life are ragin’         Stand by me
    When the storms of life are ragin’         Stand by me
    When the world is tossin’ me                Like a ship upon the sea
    Thou who rulest winds and water         Stand by me

    In the midst of tribulation                   Stand by me
    In the midst of tribulation                    Stand by me
    When the hosts of hell assail               And my strength begins to fail
    Thou who never lost a battle               Stand by me

    Stand by me, Stand by me, Great Jehovah, stand by me. (2X)

    In the midst of persecution                  Stand by me
    In the midst of persecution                  Stand by me
    When my foes in battle array               Undertake to stop my way,
    Thou who saved Paul and Silas            Stand by me.

    When I’m growing old and feeble        Stand by me
    When I’m growing old and feeble        Stand by me
    When my life becomes a burden        And I’m nearing to the Jordan,
    Oh, the Lily of the Valley                     Stand by me

    Oh no matter what I’ve done                You’ve stood by me
    And now matter where I’ve gone          You’ve stood by me.
    And when we’re there on that last day,   When the mists have blown away
    You’ll say, “Son, welcome home. Come stand by me.”

    Tis so Sweet to Trust in Jesus

    Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,    just to take Him at His word.
    Just to rest upon His promise,   just to know “Thus saith the Lord”

    Chorus:  Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!  How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er!
    Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!  O for grace to trust Him more!

    O how sweet to trust in Jesus,   just to trust His cleansing blood.
    Just in simple faith to plunge me ‘neath the healing, cleansing flood!

    Yes, ‘tis sweet to trust in Jesus, just from sin and self to cease,
    Just from Jesus simply taking life and rest and joy and peace.

    I’m so glad I learned to trust Him, precious Jesus, Savior, Friend.
    And I know that He is with me, will be with me to the end

    10,000 Reasons

    Chorus: Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul
    Worship His holy name
    Sing like never before, O my soul
    I’ll worship Your holy name

    The sun comes up, it’s a new day dawning, It’s time to sing Your song again
    Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me, Let me be singing when the evening comes

    You’re rich in love and You’re slow to anger, Your name is great and Your heart is kind
    For all Your goodness I will keep on singing, Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find

    And on that day when my strength is failing, The end draws near and my time has come
    Still my soul will sing Your praise unending, Ten thousand years and then forevermore

     

    King of my Heart

    Let the King of my heart be the mountain where I run,

    The ransom for my life, Oh, He is my song

    I’m alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
    Because You died and rose again

    Chorus: Amazing love
    How can it be?
    That You my King would die for me
    Amazing love
    I know it’s true
    It’s my joy to honor You
    In all I do I honor You

    Ending: You are my King (4X)

     

    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 every 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 power of Christ in me
    From life’s first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny
    No power of hell, no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand
    Till He returns or calls me home, Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand

    Your hidden glory in creation
    Now revealed in You our Christ

    Chorus 1: What a beautiful Name it is, What a beautiful Name it is
    The Name of Jesus Christ my King
    What a beautiful Name it is, Nothing compares to this
    What a beautiful Name it is, The Name of Jesus 

    You didn’t want heaven without us
    So Jesus, You brought heaven down
    My sin was great, Your love was greater
    What could separate us now?

    Chorus 2: What a wonderful Name it is, What a wonderful Name it is
    The Name of Jesus Christ my King
    What a wonderful Name it is, Nothing compares to this
    What a wonderful Name it is, The Name of Jesus

    Bridge: Death could not hold You, The veil tore before You
    You silence the boast of sin and grave
    The heavens are roaring, The praise of Your glory
    For You are raised to life again

    You have no rival, You have no equal
    Now and forever, God, You reign
    Yours is the kingdom, Yours is the glory
    Yours is the Name above all names!

    Chorus 3: What a powerful Name it is, What a powerful Name it is
    The Name of Jesus Christ my King
    What a powerful Name it is, Nothing can stand against
    What a powerful Name it is, The Name of Jesus
