Song Sheet March 22nd

Entrance: Glory in the Cross

Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ, our salvation and our hope. Let us bow in homage to the Lord of life, who was broken to make us whole. There is no greater love, as blessed as this: to lay down one’s life for a friend. Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ and the triumph of God’s great love.

Let us make our journey to the cross of Christ, who surrendered glory and grace to become a servant of the great and small, that all people may know God’s face. Though his birth was divine, he knelt as a slave, to wash common dust from our feet. Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ and the triumph of God’s great love.

Let us tell the story of the cross of Christ as we share this heavenly feast. We become one body in the blood of Christ, from the great tot he very least. When we eat of this bread, and drink of this cup, we honor the death of the Lord. Let us ever glory in the cross of Christ and the triumph of God’s great love.

Offertory: What Wondrous Love

What wondrous love is this, O my soul, O my soul! What wondrous love is this, O my soul! What wondrous love is this that caused the Lord of bliss To bear the dreadful curse for my soul, for my soul, To bear the dreadful curse for my soul.

To God and to the Lamb, I will sing, I will sing; To God and to the Lamb, I will sing. To God and to the Lamb Who is the great 'I am'; While millions join the theme, I will sing, I will sing; While millions join the theme, I will sing.

And when from death I'm free, I'll sing on, I'll sing on; And when from death I'm free, I'll sing on. And when from death I'm free, I'll sing and joyful be; And through eternity, I'll sing on, I'll sing on; And through eternity, I'll sing on.

Communion: Only This I Want

(Refrain) Only this I want: but to know the Lord, and to bear his cross, so to wear the crown he wore.

All but this is loss, worthless refuse to me, for to gain the Lord is to gain all I need. (To Refrain)

I will run the race; I will fight the good fight, so to win the prize of the kingdom of my Lord. (To Refrain)

Let your heart be glad, always glad in the Lord, so to shine like stars in the darkness of the night. (To Refrain)

Recessional: Lord Who Throughout These Forty Days

Lord, Who throughout these forty days For us didst fast and pray, Teach us with you to mourn our sins And close by you to stay.

As you with Satan did contend, And did the victory win, O give us strength in you to fight, In you to conquer sin.

As you did hunger bear, and thirst, So teach us, gracious Lord, To die to self, and always live By your most holy Word.

And through these days of penitence, And through your passiontide, For evermore in life and death, O Lord, with us abide.

Abide with us that when this life Of suffering is past, An Easter of unending joy We may attain at last.
