O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing …………………………. arr. Mark Hayes O for a thousand tongues to sing my great Redeemer’s praise, The glories of my God and King, the triumphs of his grace. My gracious Master and my God assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad the honors of thy name. Let ev’ry creature join to praise the one eternal God. Ye heav’nly hosts the song begin and sound his name abroad. Jesus, the name that calms our fears, that bids our sorrows cease, ‘Tis music in the sinner’s ears, ‘tis life and health and peace. He breaks the pow’r of canceled sin, he sets the prisoner free. His blood can make the foulest clean; his blood availed for me. He speaks, and listening to his voice new life the dead receive; The mournful, broken hearts rejoice, the humble poor believe. To God all glory, praise, and love be ever, ever giv’n By saints below and saints above, the church in earth and heavn’. O for a thousand tongues to sing my great Redeemer’s praise, The glories of my God and King, the triumphs of his grace! Let ev’ry creature join to praise the one eternal God. Ye heav’nly host the song begin and sound his name abroad!
All Hail the Power of Jesus Name [Congregational singing]
Arise, My Soul, Arise ………………..…………Charles Wesley/arr. Dan Forrest Arise, my soul, arise, shake off your guilty fears; The bleeding Sacrifice in my behalf appears. Before the throne my Surety stands; my name is written on his hands, He ever lives above, for me to intercede, His all-redeeming love, his precious blood to plead. His blood atoned for ev’ry race and sprinkles now the throne of grace. Five bleeding wounds he bears, received on Calvary; They pour effectual prayers, they strongly plead for me. “Forgive him, O forgive,” they cry, “nor let that ransomed sinner die!” My God is reconciled; his pard’ning voice I hear. He owns me for his child, I can no longer fear. With confidence I now draw nigh, and “Father, Abba, Father!” cry.
Christ Is Risen ……….………………………………… Jan Sanborn Christ is Risen! Alleluia! Christ being raised from the dead, dieth no more. Death hath no dominion over him. For in that he died, he died unto sin. For in that he lives, he lives unto God. Christ is Risen! Alleluia!
