Songs
Love the Lord Your God
Chorus:
Love the Lord your God
With all your heart and mind,
All your soul and strength
Love the Lord your God
With all your heart and mind,
All your soul and strength
Lay down your life
With your joy and your sorrow
Let your passions not pull you apart
Let Christ be the Master
Of all your emotions
Live your love for God with all your heart
CHORUS
…More than enough
Think of all you've been given
Where another just walks, you have wings
But you won't be complete
Till you give to the needful
This is how you love God with your strength
CHORUS
Behold Your God
Glowing clouds of lightning
Quakes of mighty thunder
Our souls expand for what is grand,
To grow with awe and wonder
Varieties of plant and beast
And stars beyond all measure,
Every atom in the universe
Continues at God's pleasure
Chorus:
Behold Your God
Bow and worship
Throw down your crowns
Prostrate at His feet
Rejoice with all creation
He is Lord above all nations
His beauty, pow'r and justice are your song
Behold your God
Give Life to Us
We were scattered to survive
Seeds sent underground alive
Will we grow, or will we die
Buried alone?
Is this strange, unknowing dark
Just a grave, or saving ark?
Will we still know who we are
In this new home?
Chorus:
Lord, give life to us, scattered far and wide
With so much uncertain, help us trust You to provide
Lord, give life to us, fill this empty time
Help our roots grow deeper into rivers of Your life
Comfort Me No More (Rachel Mourning Her Children)
O heartless puppet king,
You took my children to the grave
But this, my chance to mourn,
I will not let you steal away
The pow’rful clench their fists
And our prospects start to dim
In grief God meets us mourning,
And each morning we are His
Let weeping fill the streets
Let weeping fill the streets
O comfort me no more
My children are no more
All Who Call
“In the last days,” says the Lord,
“I will pour out my Spirit
On all humankind,
And your sons and daughters
Will prophesy.
The young will see visions,
The old will dream dreams,
The men and the women
Who serve Me shall see;
In the last days,” says the Lord,
“I will pour out My Spirit,
And they’ll prophesy.”
Chorus:
And all who call on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved.
And all who call on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved.
Psalm 88 (Hear My Cry)
My soul is full of trouble;
I am pulled towards the grave
On the list of doomed and dying,
Weak, forsaken, like the slain
Whom You pull your hand away from
And forget like faded paths
You have put me in the deepest,
Darkest pit beneath Your wrath
Chorus:
Lord, God of my salvation,
I call both day and night
Allow my prayer before You,
Tilt Your ear to hear my cry
Make Us One in Morning Song
Step by step and mile by mile
Bring each woman, man and child
To Your called community,
Singing, faithful, bold, and free
Refrain:
Love divine who for us longs
Make us one in morning song
Little Child, Arise
Little child, arise
Little child, arise
There is a Hand that’s reaching out for you
Little child, arise
Little child, arise
And hear the Shepherd’s voice ring out
So if you know His voice, sing out!
Chorus:
Blessing and glory,
Wisdom, thanksgiving,
Honor and power and might
Be to our God
Forever and ever;
With heaven we sing day and night
I Am the Greatness (Herod’s Song)
I am the greatness, it is I upon the throne;
I throw down pretenders, it is I and I alone
I sift out the riff-raff, then I smash them like a stone;
I am the greatness, I and I alone
I am the greatness, I and I alone
Choose This Day
We will make our home
Wherever the Lord may lead
Serving Christ alone,
We’ll live as a family
There is hope in the place of catastrophe,
In what we choose this day
Confession
The luster, lewdly looking, leering,
Fearing one who knows is nearing,
Hides the way his heart is hearing
Whispers that he sins.
The gossip gathers green and gray,
In search of silver things to say;
Sin’s satisfaction cannot stay--
She tells her tale again.
Chorus:
Jesus Christ, Almighty Savior, God:
We bring our broken souls to You:
Yet again, we lift up our confession
Holy Spirit, make our hearts Your home;
Purify us with the Truth;
Call us out of sin into your arms . . . again.
