The Hope Blog

Because of a very cold weather forecast and potentially icy and slick roadways, we will NOT hold services in our building this Sunday, Feb. 14th. Instead, we will hold a Zoom gathering. The link is available on our Realm community website. Below are the worship song lyrics for this online service.

His Mercy is More

What love could remember no wrongs we have done
Omniscient, all-knowing, He counts not their sum
Thrown into a sea without bottom or shore
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more!

Chorus:   Praise the Lord, His mercy is more
Stronger than darkness, new every morn
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more

What patience would wait as we constantly roam
What Father, so tender is calling us home
He welcomes the weakest, the vilest, the poor
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more (Chorus)

What riches of kindness He lavished on us
His blood was the payment, His life was the cost
We stood ‘neath a debt we could never afford
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more (Chorus)

Great I Am

I want to stay close, close to Your side,
Where Heaven is near and death can’t a-bide,
I want to hear voices of angels above
Singing as one

Chorus:   Hallelujah, holy, holy
God Almighty, the Great I Am
Who is worthy, none beside Thee,
God Almighty, the Great I Am

I want to be near, near to Your heart,
Loving the world, a light in the dark
I want to see dry bones living again
Singing as one   (Chorus)

Bridge: The mountains shake before You
The demons run and flee
At the mention of Your name, King of majesty
There is no pow’r in hell or any who can stand
Before the power and the presence of the Great I Am,
the Great I Am (3X)

All Glory

Holy, Holy, You are God Almighty
And You reign victorious over all the earth
Holy, Holy, You are God Almighty
Yes, You reign victorious over all the earth

Chorus:   Let Your Kingdom come, and Your will be done
Here on earth as it is in hea – ven
And to Your renown hear our hearts cry out
Singing “Holy is the Lord”

God of Glory, see Your victory story
In the lives of those who gather at the cross
Rock of ages, be adorned with praises
As Your people raise their voice in thanks and love (Chorus)

Bridge:   All Glory, all Honor, all wisdom strength and power
All Glory, all honor, are Yours alone, forever

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 heav’n He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart, no tongue can bid me thence depart

When Satan tempts me to despair, and tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him there, who made an end to 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, to look on Him and pardon me

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 with His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high,
With Christ, my Savior and my God, With Christ, my Savior and my God

Be the Centre

Jesus, be the centre
Be my source, be my light, Jesus

Jesus, be the centre
Be my hope, be my song, Jesus

Be the fire in my heart
Be the wind in these sails
Be the reason that I live – Jesus, Jesus

Jesus, be my vision
Be my path, be my guide, Jesus
