VERSE 1
I sing the mighty power of God that made the mountains rise
That spread the flowing seas abroad and built the lofty skies
I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day
The moon shines full at His command and all the stars obey
VERSE 2
I sing the goodness of the Lord that filled the earth with food
He formed the creatures with His Word and then pronounced them good
Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed where’er I turn my eye
If I survey the ground I tread or gaze upon the sky!
CHORUS
O God, You are the Lord of all, and all to You I sing
My heart, my soul, my mind and strength for You, O mighty king!
(repeat)
VERSE 3
The verdant plants and flow’rs below, they make they glories known
And clouds arise and tempests blow by order from Thy throne
While all that borrows life from Thee is ever in Thy care
And everywhere that man can be, Thou God, art present there

Love Divine
04:45
|
|||
VERSE 1
Love divine, all loves excelling, joy of heaven to earth come down
Fix in us Thy humble dwelling, all thy faithful mercies crown
Jesus Thou are all compassion, pure unbounded love thou art
Visit us with Thy salvation, enter ev’ry trembling heart
VERSE 2
Breathe, oh breathe Thy loving spirit into ev’ry troubled breast
Let us all in Thee inherit, let us find that second rest
Take away our bent to sinning, Alpha and Omega be
End of faith as its Beginning, set our hearts at liberty
CHORUS
Come live in me
Make my heart your home
Let this be my prayer
Lord, make me your own
VERSE 3
Come almighty to deliver, let us all Thy life receive
Suddenly return and never, never more Thy temples leave
Thee we would be always blessing, serve Thee as Thy hosts above
Pray and praise Thee without ceasing, glory in Thy perfect love
VERSE 4
Finish then Thy new creation, pure and spotless let us be
Let us see Thy great salvation perfectly restored in Thee
Changed from glory into glory 'till in heav’n we take our place
'Till we cast our crowns before Thee, lost in wonder, love and praise

May the Mind of Christ
04:50
|
|||
VERSE 1, 2
May the mind of Christ my saviour live in me from day to day
By His love and pow’r controlling, all I do and say
May the word of God dwell richly in my heart from hour to hour
So that all may see, I triumph only through His power
CHORUS
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts and His word richly dwell in you
Let us sing songs, hymns of praise in the name of Christ
In the name of Christ, Lord Jesus
VERSE 3, 4
May the peace of God my Father rule my life in ev’rything
That I may be calm to comfort (the) sick and sorrowing
May the love of Jesus fill me as the waters fill the sea
Him exalting, self-abasing, this is victory
VERSE 5, 6
May I run the race before me, strong and brave to face the foe
Looking only unto Jesus as I onward go
May his beauty rest upon me as I seek the lost to win
And may they forget the channel, seeing only Him

In the Cross
04:38
|
|||
VERSE 1
in the cross of Christ I glory
Towering o'er the wrecks of time
All the light of sacred story
Gathers round its head sublime
VERSE 2
When the woes of life would take me
Hopes deceive and fears annoy
Never shall the cross forsake me
How it glows with peace and joy
CHORUS
For i know the Lord will bless me and keep me
I will believe in his power
Every day a new peace and mercy
Until the Lord's glory hour
Until the Lord's glory hour
VERSE 3
When the sun of bliss is beaming
Light and love upon my way
From the cross the radiance streaming
Adds more wonder to the day
VERSE 4
Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure
By the cross are sanctified
Peace is there that knows no measure
Joys that through all time abide
BRIDGE
His life in me
His life in me
My life for Thee
My life for Thee

The Love of God
04:41
|
|||
VERSE 1
The love of God is greater far than tongue or pen could ever tell
It goes beyond the highest star and reaches to the lowest hell
The guilty pair bowed down with care, God gave His son to win
His erring child He reconciled and pardoned from his sin
VERSE 2
When years of time shall pass away and earthly thrones and kingdoms fall When men who here refuse to pray, on rocks and hills and mountains call God’s love so sure shall still endure, all measureless and strong
Redeeming grace to adam’s race, the saints’ and angels’ song
CHORUS
O love of God, how rich and pure how measureless and strong
It shall forevermore endure the saints’ and angels’ song
VERSE 3
Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made? Were ev’ry stock on earth a quill, and ev’ry man a scribe by trade?
To write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky

That Beautiful Name
04:58
|
|||
VERSE 1
I know of a name, a beautiful name
That angels brought down to earth
They whispered it low, one night long ago
To a maiden of lowly birth
CHORUS
That beautiful name, that beautiful name
From sin has power to free us
That beautiful name, that wonderful name
That matchless name is Jesus
VERSE 2
I know of a name, a beautiful name
That unto a Babe was given
The stars glittered bright throughout the glad night
And angels praised God in heaven
VERSE 3
I love that blest name, that wonderful name
Made higher than all in heaven
T’was whispered, I know, in my heart long ago
To Jesus my life I’ve given

Higher Ground
04:24
|
|||
VERSE 1
I'm pressing on the upward way
New heights I'm gaining every day
Still praying as I'm onward bound
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground
CHORUS
Lord lift me up and let me stand
By faith, on heaven's table land
A higher plane than I have found
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground
VERSE 2
My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay
Though some may dwell where these abound
My prayer, my aim is higher ground
VESRE 3
I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright
Still I will pray 'till heaven's found
Lord, lead me on to higher ground

Sweet Hour of Prayer
05:03
|
|||
VERSE 1
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer
That calls me from a world of care
And bids me at my Father’s throne, make all my wants and wishes known
In seasons of distress and grief, my soul has often found relief
And oft escaped the tempter’s snare by thy return, sweet hour of prayer
VERSE 2
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer
Thy wings shall my petition bear
To him whose truth and faithfulness engage the waiting soul to bless
And since he bids me seek his face, believe his word, and trust his grace
I’ll cast on him my every care and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer
CHORUS
I’m on my knees
Search my open heart, Lord I come to Thee
O God above, I know I’m unworthy
I’m at your feet
Reaching out for You, Jesus I believe
O God of love, Your grace I receive
VERSE 3
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer
May I thy consolation bear
'Till from the mountain’s lofty heights, I view my home and take my flight This robe of flesh I’ll drop and rise to seize the everlasting prize
And shout while passing through the air,
“Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!”

VERSE 1
O how sweet the glorious message simple faith may claim
Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same
Still He loves to save the sinful, heal the sick and lame
Cheer the mourner, calm the tempest, glory to His name!
CHORUS
Yesterday, today, forever
Jesus is the same
All may change but Jesus, never
Glory to his name!
VERSE 2
He who was the friend of sinners seeks the lost one now
Sinner come, and at His throne humbly kneel and bow
He who said, “I’ll not condemn thee, go and sin no more”
Speaks to us that word of pardon as in days of yore
VERSE 3
Oft on earth he healed the broken by His mighty hand
Still our sickness and our sorrows go at His command
He who gave His healing virtue to a woman’s touch
To the faith that claims His fullness, still will give as much
BRIDGE
Glory to His name (repeat)

Blessed Assurance

VERSE 1
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
O what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God
Born of his spirit, washed in his blood
CHORUS
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my saviour all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my saviour all the day long
VERSE 2
Perfect submission, perfect delight
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight
Angels descending bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love
VERSE 3
Perfect submission, all is at rest
I in my saviour am happy and blessed
Watching and waiting, looking above
Filled with his goodness, lost in his love
