Song Sheet November 2nd
Entrance Hymn: Amazing Grace
Amazing grace, How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me .I once was lost, but now I am found, was blind, but now I see.
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed.
The Lord has promised good to me, his word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be,
as long as life endures.
Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; 'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far And grace will lead me home.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun, We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise than when we’d first begun.
Offertory Hymn: Precious Lord
Precious Lord, take my hand, lead me on, let me stand; I am tired, I am weak, I am worn; Through the storm, through the night, lead me on to the light: Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home.
When my way grows drear, precious Lord, linger near, when my life is almost gone; Hear my cry, hear my call, hold my hand lest I fall: Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home.
When the darkness appears and the night draws near, and the day is past and gone, At the river I stand, guide my feet, hold my hand: Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home.
Communion Hymn: I Know That My Redeemer Lives
I know that my redeemer lives, the one who calls me home. I long to see God face to face, to see with my own eyes.
(Refrain) I know that my Redeemer lives, that I shall rise again.I know that my Redeemer lives, that I shall rise again.
I know that I shall one day see the goodness of the Lord, when God will wipe away our tears, and death will be no more. (To Refrain)
The last day I shall rise again, shall be remade like God. My home shall be by God’s own side, the dying, rising Lord. (To Refrain)
2nd Communion Hymn: On Eagles Wings
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord, Who abide in His shadow for life, Say to the Lord, "My Refuge, My Rock in Whom I trust."
(Refrain) And He will raise you up on eagle's wings, Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun, And hold you in the palm of His Hand.
The snare of the fowler will never capture you, And famine will bring you no fear;
Under His Wings your refuge, His faithfulness your shield.(To Refrain)
You need not fear the terror of the night,Nor the arrow that flies by day,
Though thousands fall about you, Near you it shall not come. (To Refrain)
For to His angels He's given a command, To guard you in all of your ways,
Upon their hands they will bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone. (To Refrain)
Recessional Hymn: Sing With All the Saints in Glory
Sing with all the saints in glory, Sing the resurrection song! Death and sorrow, earth’s dark story, to the former days belong. All around the clouds are breaking, soon the storms of time shall cease; In God’s likeness people waking, know the everlasting peace.
Oh, what glory, far exceeding all that eye has yet perceived! Holiest hearts for ages pleading, never that full joy conceived. God has promised Christ prepares it, there on high our welcome waits; Every humble spirit shares it, Christ has passed the eternal gates.
Life eternal heaven rejoices: Jesus lives who once was dead; Join with all the heavenly voices; Child of God, lift up your head! Patriarchs from distant ages, saints all longing for their heaven, prophets, psalmists, seers, and sages, all await the glory given.
Life eternal O what wonders crowd on faith; what joy unknown, when, amid earth’s closing thunders saints shall stand before the throne! Oh, to enter that bright portal, see that glowing firmament, know, with you, O God immortal, Jesus Christ whom you have sent!
