THE CHILDREN’S SONG Josh Garrels – Muncie, IN

Down on my knees, praying please, have mercy now Christ my shelter, in a world that tries to drag me down. Open your mind, Open your heart, Open up your soul.

Jesus come in, and make a broken man whole.

Carry the cross, Carry the pain, Carry the love. We don’t belong here, but to the Father above.

Jesus in heaven and Jesus in hell below Paid for our sin, broken body with the red blood flow.

Rise up in glory, raise your hands to the risen King.

He’s God almighty, listen to his children sing.

Let ‘em sing: Hallelujah to our King!

Hallelujah, ruler over everything! The children sing:

Hallelujah to our King! Hallelujah, ruler over everything!

In this world you will have trouble.

But Jesus overcame the world. And our body is His Temple.

And we will worship forever more.

SOON Brooke Fraser – Wellington, New Zealand

Soon and very soon, my King is coming

Robed in righteousness and crowned with love When I see Him I shall be made like Him

Soon and very soon

Soon and very soon I’ll be going To the place he has prepared for me

There my sin erased; my shame forgotten Soon and very soon

I will be with the one I love

With unveiled face I'll see him There my soul will be satisfied

Soon and very soon

Soon and very soon, see the procession The angels and the elders round the throne

At his feet I lay my crowns, my worship Soon and very soon

Though I have not seen him, my heart knows him well

Jesus Christ the lamb, the Lord of heaven

Let us break bread together on our knees Let us break bread together on our knees

When I fall on my knees With my face to the rising sun Oh Lord, have mercy on me.

COME THOU FOUNT Robert Robinson – England, 1758

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing, Tune my heart to sing Thy grace; Streams of mercy, never ceasing, Call for songs of loudest praise!

Teach me some melodious sonnet, Sung by flaming tongues above.

Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it, Mount of Thy redeeming love.

Here I raise my Ebenezer; Here by Thy great help I’ve come; And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,

Safely to arrive at home. Jesus sought me when a stranger, Wandering from the fold of God; He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed His precious blood

O to grace how great a debtor Daily I’m constrained to be!

Let Thy goodness, like a fetter, Bind my wandering heart to Thee.

Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love;

Here’s my heart, O take and seal it, Seal it for Thy courts above.

REVELATION SONG Jennie Riddle – McKinney, TX

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Holy, Holy is He Sing a new song to him who sits on

Heaven's mercy seat

Holy, Holy, Holy, Is the Lord God Almighty

Who was, and is, and is to come With all creation I sing,

Praise to the King of Kings You are my everything

And I will adore You

Clothed in rainbows of living color Flashes of lightning rolls of thunder

Blessing and honor, strength and glory and power be To You the only wise King

Filled with wonder awestruck wonder

At the mention of your name Jesus your name is power, breath, and living water

Such a marvelous mystery

JESUS PAID IT ALL Elvina M. Hall – Alexandria, VA, 1865

I hear the Savior say,

Your strength indeed is small; Child of weakness, watch and pray,

Find in Me your all in all.

Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.

Lord, now indeed I find

Your power and yours alone, Can change the leper’s spots And melt the heart of stone.

And when before the throne

I stand in Him complete, “Jesus died my soul to save”

My lips shall still repeat

O Praise the one who paid my debt And raised this life up from the dead!

BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD

Charatie L. Bancroft – Ireland, 1863

Before the throne of God above I have a strong and perfect plea.

A great High Priest whose Name is Love Who ever lives and pleads for me. My name is graven on His hands, My name is written on His heart.

I know that while in Heaven He stands No tongue can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair And tells me of the guilt within,

Upward I look and see Him there Who made an end of all my sin. Because the sinless Savior died My sinful soul is counted free.

For God the just is satisfied To look on Him and pardon me.

Behold Him there the risen Lamb, My perfect spotless righteousness,

The great unchangeable I AM, The King of glory and of grace,

One in Himself I cannot die. My soul is purchased by His blood, My life is hid with Christ on high,

With Christ my Savior and my God!

HOW DEEP THE FATHER’S LOVE FOR US Stuart Townend – West Yorkshire, England

How deep the Father's love for us, How vast beyond all measure

That he should give his only son, To make a wretch his treasure

How great the pain of searing loss, The Father turned his face away

As wounds which mar the chosen one, Bring many sons to glory

Behold the man upon a cross, My sin upon his shoulders

Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held him there Until it was accomplished

His dying breath has brought me life; I know that it is finished

I will not boast in anything: No gifts, no power, no wisdom But I will boast in Jesus Christ;

His death and resurrection Why should I gain from his reward?

I cannot give an answer But this I know with all my heart: His wounds have paid my ransom

MIGHTY TO SAVE Mia Fieldes and Reuben Morgan – Australia

Everyone needs compassion,

Love that's never failing; Let mercy fall on me.

Everyone needs forgiveness, The kindness of a Savior;

The Hope of nations.

Savior, He can move the mountains, My God is Mighty to save, He is Mighty to save.

Forever, Author of salvation, He rose and conquered the grave,

Jesus conquered the grave.

So take me as You find me, All my fears and failures,

Fill my life again. I give my life to follow, Everything I believe in,

Now I surrender.

Shine your light and let the whole world see, We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus

Now I surrender.

IN CHRIST ALONE

Keith and Kristyn Getty – Ireland

In Christ alone my hope is found, He is my light, my strength, my song; this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,

firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love, what depths of peace, when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!

My Comforter, my All in All, here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone who took on flesh Fullness of God in helpless babe! This gift of love and righteousness

Scorned by the ones he came to save: Till on that cross as Jesus died The wrath of God was satisfied - For every sin on Him was laid Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay Light of the world by darkness slain: Then bursting forth in glorious Day Up from the grave he rose again!

And as He stands in victory - Sin's curse has lost its grip on me, For I am His and He is mine -

Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death This is the power of Christ in me; From life's first cry to final breath. Jesus commands my destiny.

No power of hell, no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand; Till He returns or calls me home,

Here in the power of Christ I'll stand. 13

IN CHRIST ALONE












Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

13

IN CHRIST ALONE












Here in the power of Christ I'll stand. 13

IN CHRIST ALONE












Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

HOSANNA Brooke Fraser – Wellington, New Zealand

I see the king of glory, coming on the clouds with fire

The whole earth shakes, the whole earth shakes I see his love and mercy, washing over all my sin

The people sing, the people sing

Hosanna, Hosanna Hosanna in the highest!


I see a generation, rising up to take their place,

With selfless faith, with selfless faith I see a near revival, stirring as we pray and seek

We’re on our knees, we’re on our knees

Heal my heart and make me clean Open up my eyes to the things unseen

Show me how to love like you have loved m, Break my heart for what breaks yours

Everything I am for your kingdoms cause As I walk from earth into eternity

FROM THE INSIDE OUT Joel Houston – Sydney, Australia

A thousand times I’ve failed, Still Your mercy remains Should I stumble again, Still I’m caught in Your grace Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades

Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame

Your will above all else, My purpose remains The art of losing myself, In bringing You praise

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame

In my heart and my soul, Lord I give You control

Consume me from the inside out Lord Let justice and praise, Become my embrace

To love You from the inside out

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame And the cry of my heart, Is to bring You praise

From the inside out, Lord my soul cries out

IF YOU SAY GO Diane Theil – Georgia

If You say go, we will go

If You say wait, we will wait If You say step out on the water

And they say it can't be done We'll fix our eyes on You and we will come

Your ways are higher than our ways

And the plans that You have laid Are good and true

If You call us to the fire You will not withdraw Your hand

We'll gaze into the flames and look for You

HOW HE LOVES John Mark McMillian – Madison Park, NC

He is jealous for me,

Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree, Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.

When all of a sudden, I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,

And I realize just how beautiful You are, And how great Your affections are for me.

And oh, how He loves us Oh, Oh how He loves us,

How He loves us all

Yeah, He loves us, Oh! how He loves us, Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves

We are His portion and He is our prize, Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,

If grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking. So Heaven meets earth like an unforseen kiss,

And my heart turns violently inside of my chest, I don’t have time to maintain these regrets,

When I think about, the way…

17







How He loves us all


Oh! how He loves





17







How He loves us all


Oh! how He loves

How He loves us all


Oh! how He loves

SURRENDER Marc James – United Kingdom

I'm giving you my heart, and all that is within I lay it all down for the sake of you my King

I'm giving you my dreams, I'm laying down my rights I'm giving up my pride for the promise of new life

And I surrender all to you, all to you And I surrender all to you, all to you

I'm singing You this song, I'm waiting at the cross And all the world holds dear, I count it all as loss

For the sake of knowing You for the glory of Your name To know the lasting joy, even sharing in Your pain

NONE BUT JESUS Brooke Fraser – Wellington, New Zealand

In the quiet, in the stillness

I know that You are God In the secret of Your presence

I know there I am restored When You call I won’t refuse

Each new day again I’ll choose

There is no one else for me None but Jesus

Crucified to set me free Now I live to bring Him praise

In the chaos, in confusion

I know You’re sovereign still In the moment of my weakness

You give me grace to do Your will So when You call I won’t delay

This my song through all my days

All my delight is in You, Lord All of my hope, all of my strength

All my delight is in You, Lord, forevermore

MARVELOUS LIGHT Charlie Hall – Oklahoma, OK

I once was fatherless, a stranger with no hope;

Your kindness wakened me, Awakened me, from my sleep Your love it beckons deeply, a call to come and die.

By grace now I will come And take this life, take your life.

Sin has lost it's power, death has lost it's sting. From the grave you've risen VICTORIOUSLY!

Into marvelous light I'm running,

Out of darkness, out of shame By the cross you are the truth,

You are the life, you are the way

My dead heart now is beating, My deepest stains now clean Your breath fills up my lungs. Now I'm free now I'm free!

Lift my hands and spin around, See the light that I have found.

Oh the marvelous light, marvelous light

Knowing there's a greater day There's a hope that never fails Where Your Name is lifted high And forever praises rise

For the glory of Your Name I'm believing for the day

Where the wars and violence cease, all creation lives in peace

The cross before me the world behind No turning back raise the banner high

It's not for me; it's all for you

Let the heavens shake and split the sky Let the people clap their hands and cry

It's not for us; it's all for you

Not to us but to your name be the glory Not to us but to your name be the glory

Our hearts unfold before your throne the only place for those who know


Send your holy fire on this offering Let our worship burn for the world to see


The earth is shaking, the mountains shouting - It's all for you The waves are crashing the sun is raging - It's all for you

The universe is spinning and singing - it's all for you Your children dancing, dancing, dancing - it's all for you

It's all for you

Try me and see Every worthless affection hidden in me

All I'm asking for is that You'd cleanse me, Lord

Clothe me in robes of righteousness Cover my nakedness with grace

All of my life before You now I humbly bring

JESUS, I MY CROSS HAVE TAKEN

Henry Francis Lyte – Scotland, 1833

Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave and follow Thee.

Destitute, despised, forsaken, Thou from hence my all shall be.

Perish every fond ambition, All I’ve sought or hoped or known.

Yet how rich is my condition! God and heaven are still my own.

Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Savior, too.

Human hearts and looks deceive me; Thou art not, like them, untrue.

O while Thou dost smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might,

Foes may hate and friends disown me, Show Thy face and all is bright.

Haste thee on from grace to glory, Armed by faith, and winged by prayer.

Heaven’s eternal days before thee, God’s own hand shall guide us there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission,

Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days, Hope shall change to glad fruition, Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.
