Opening Hymn
Our Great God
Verse 1
Eternal God, unchanging
Mysterious and unknown
Your boundless love, unfailing
In grace and mercy shown
Bright seraphim in ceaseless flight
Around Your glorious throne
They raise their voices day and night
In praise to You alone
Chorus
Hallelujah
Glory be to our great God
Hallelujah
Glory be to our great God
Verse 2
Lord, we are weak and frail
And are helpless in the storm
Surround us with Your angels
And hold us in Your arms
Our cold and ruthless enemy
His pleasure is our harm
Rise up, oh Lord, and he will flee
Before our sovereign God. [Chorus]
Verse 3
Let every creature in the sea
And every flying bird
Let every mountain, every field
And valley of the Earth
Let all the moons and all the stars
In all the universe
Sing praises to the living God
Who rules them by His word [Chorus X 2]
Pre-Sermon Hymn
Speak O Lord
Verse 1
Speak, O Lord, as we come to You
To receive the food of Your Holy Word.
Take Your Truth, plant it deep in us;
Shape and fashion us in Your likeness;
That the light of Christ might be seen today
In our acts of love and our deeds of faith.
Speak O Lord, and fulfill in us
All your purposes for your glory.
Verse 2
Teach us Lord, full obedience
Holy reverence, true humility.
Test our thoughts and our attitudes
In the radiance of Your purity.
Cause our faith to rise, cause our eyes to see
Your majestic love and authority.
Words of power that can never fail;
Let their truth prevail over unbelief.
Verse 3
Speak O Lord, and renew our minds;
Help us grasp the heights of Your plans for us
Truths unchanged from the dawn of time,
That will echo down through eternity.
And by grace we’ll stand on Your promises;
And by faith we’ll walk as You walk with us.
Speak, O Lord, till your church is built,
And the earth is filled with your glory.

Psalm 121 (My Help)
I will lift up mine eyes to the hills
From whence cometh my help
My help cometh from the Lord
The Lord which made Heaven and earth
He said He will not suffer thy foot
Thy foot to be moved,
The Lord that keepeth thee
He will not slumber nor sleep
For the Lord is thy keeper
The Lord is thy shade
Upon thy right hand, Upon thy right hand
No, the sun shall not smite thee by day
Not the moon by night
He shall preserve thy soul
Even forevermore
My help, my help, my help
All of my help cometh from the Lord

What A Friend We Have In Jesus
Verse 1
What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer!
Verse 2
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Can we find a friend so faithful
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Verse 3
Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge--
take it to the Lord in prayer!
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield you;
you will find a solace there.

I Will Wait For You
Verse 1
Out of the depths, I cry to You
In darkest places, I will call
Incline Your ear to me anew
And hear my cry for mercy, Lord
Verse 2
Were you to count my sinful ways
How could I come before Your throne?
Yet full forgiveness meets my gaze
I stand redeemed by grace alone
Chorus
I will wait for You, I will wait for You
On Your Word, I will rely
I will wait for You, surely wait for You
'Til my soul is satisfied
Verse 3
So put your hope in God alone
Take courage in His pow'r to save
Completely and forever won
By Christ, emerging from the grave. [Chorus]
Verse 4
His steadfast love has made a way
And God Himself has paid the price
That all who trust in Him today
Find healing in His sacrifice. [Chorus]
Chorus 2
I will wait for You, I will wait for You
Through the storm and through the night
I will wait for You, surely wait for You
For Your love is my delight [ X2]

Good, Good Father
[Verse 1]
Oh, I've heard a thousand stories of what they think You're like
But I've heard the tender whisper of love in the dead of night
And You tell me that You're pleased and that I'm never alone
[Chorus]
You're a good, good Father
It's who You are, it's who You are, it's who You are
And I'm loved by You
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
[Verse 2]
Oh, and I've seen many searching for answers far and wide
But I know we're all searching for answers only You provide
'Cause You know just what we need before we say a word [Chorus] [Brigde]
Because You are perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways to us
You are perfect in all of Your ways
Oh, You're perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways to us
[Verse 4]
Oh, it's love so undeniable
I, I can hardly speak
Peace so unexplainable
I, I can hardly think
As You call me deeper still
As You call me deeper still
As You call me deeper still into love, love, love [Chorus]
