Song Sheet July 26th
Entrance: Praise My Soul The King of Heaven
Praise, my soul, the King of heaven; to His feet thy tribute bring; ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, evermore his praises sing: Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise the everlasting King.
Praise Him for His grace and favor to his children, in distress; Praise Him still the same as ever, slow to chide, and swift to bless. Alleluia! Alleluia! Glorious in His faithfulness.
Father-like He tends and spares us; well our feeble frame He knows; In His hands He gently bears us, rescues us from all our foes. Alleluia! Alleluia! Widely yet His mercy flows.
Offertory: Be Still and Know
Be still and know that I am God. You are my chosen one, to whom my love I give. My life is yours, in you I live. Be still, be still and know that I am God.
Be still and know that I am God. You are my chosen one, I came to set you free. Give me your cares and rest in me. Be still, be still and know that I am God.
Be still and know that I am God. You are my chosen one, to whom I show my ways. My love is with you all your days. Be still, be still and know that I am God.
Communion: Your Words are Spirit and Life
(Refrain)Your words are spirit and life, O Lord Richer than gold, stronger than death Your words are spirit and life, O Lord Life everlasting
God's law is perfect, refreshing the soul Reviving the weary spirit God's rule can be trusted: bringing us wisdom Bringing God's wisdom to birth. (To Refrain)
God’s precepts keep us; their purpose is right. They gladden the hearts of people. God’s command is so clear it brings us new vision; Bringing God’s light to our eyes. (To refrain)
Living by God's truth is holy and sure God's presence is everlasting God's truth is eternal, bringing us justice Bringing God's justice to earth. (To refrain)
God's word is precious, desired more than gold Worth more than we dare imagine And, sweeter than honey, this word will feed us, bringing fulfillment and joy. (To refrain)
Recessional: Joyful, Joyful
Joyful, Joyful we adore Thee God of glory, Lord of love Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee Opening to the sun above. Melt the clouds of sin and sadness Drive the dark of doubt away Giver of immortal gladness Fill us with the light of day.
All thy works with joy surround thee, Earth and heaven reflect thy rays Stars and angels sing around thee, Center of unbroken praise; Field and forest, Vale and mountain, Flow’ry meadow flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain, Call us to rejoice in thee.
Thou art giving and forgiving, ever blessing, ever blest; Well-spring of the joy of living, ocean depth of happy rest! Thou our father, Christ our brother, all who live in love are thine; teach us how to love each other, lift us to the joy divine.
