  • Come, Ye That Love The Lord

    VERSE 1
    Come, ye that love the Lord, And let your joys be known;
    Join in a song with sweet accord, Join in a song with sweet accord;
    While ye surround his throne; While ye surround His throne.
    Let those refuse to sing Who never knew our God;
    But servants of the heavenly King; But servants of the heavenly King May speak their joys abroad; May speak their joys abroad. 

    VERSE 2
    The God that rules on high, That all the earth surveys
    That rides upon the stormy sky; That rides upon the stormy sky,
    And calms the roaring seas- And calms the roaring seas-
    This awful God is ours, Our Father and our love;
    He will send down his heavenly powers, He will send down his heavenly powers,
    To carry us above; To carry us above. 

    VERSE 3
    There we shall see his face, And never, never sin;
    There, from the rivers of his grace, There, from the rivers of his grace,
    Drink endless pleasures in: Drink endless pleasures in:
    Yea, and before we rise To that immortal state,
    The thoughts of such amazing bliss The thoughts of such amazing bliss
    Should constant joys create. Should constant joys create.

    VERSE 4
    The men of grace have found  Glory begun below;
    Celestial fruit on earthly ground; Celestial fruit on earthly ground
    From faith and hope may grow: From faith and hope may grow:
    Then let our songs abound, And every tear be dry;
    We are marching through Immanuel’s grounds; We are marching through Immanuel’s grounds
    To fairer worlds on high. To fairer worlds on high.

  • O Word of God Incarnate

    VERSE 1
    O Word of God incarnate, O Wisdom from on high,
    O Truth unchanged, unchanging, O Light of our dark sky:
    We praise You for the radiance That from the hallowed page,
    A lantern to our footsteps, Shines on from age to age. 

    VERSE 2
    The church from You, our Savior, Received the gift divine,
    And still that light is lifted O’er all the earth to shine.

    Where gems of truth are stored;
    It is the heav’n-drawn picture Of Christ, the living Word. 

    VERSE 3
    The Scripture is a banner Before God’s host unfurled;
    It is a shining beacon Above the darkling world.

    ’Mid mists and rocks and quicksands, Still guides, O Christ, to You. 

    VERSE 4
    Oh, make your church, dear Savior, A lamp of purest gold,
    To bear before the nations Your true light as of old.
    Oh, teach your wand’ring pilgrims By this their path to trace,
    Till, clouds and darkness ended, They see You face to face.

  • God Moves in a Mysterious Way

    His wonders to perform;

    And rides upon the storm.

    Of never failing skill
    He treasures up His bright designs
    And works His sovereign will.

    Give us eyes to see;
    Eyes to see your smiling face
    Behind the mystery
    Behind the mystery

    The clouds ye so much dread
    Are big with mercy and shall break
    In blessings on your head.

    But trust Him for His grace;
    Behind a frowning providence
    He hides a smiling face.

    Unfolding every hour;
    The bud may have a bitter taste,
    But sweet will be the flow’r.

    And scan His work in vain;
    God is His own interpreter,

    Just from sin and self to cease;

  • 5:21

    VERSE 1
    Our guilt was placed securely on His shoulders

    It was for us, though God, He bled and died! 

    CHORUS
    All my sin and shame
    Went to the Lamb that was slain;
    And all His righteousness has come to me!
    His grace so great and free
    Given to all who will believe;
    Come all who thirst and drink, drink freely!

    VERSE 2
    The wrath of God is coming for the wicked
    Where can we hide from His Holy sight?
    We run unto the Lamb that’s slain for safety
    He drank the cup to make us reconciled!

    We’re so wicked
    That He had to die
    Yet, so loved that
    He was willing to give up his life

  • The Solid Rock

    but wholly lean on Jesus’ name.

    I rest on his unchanging grace;
    in every high and stormy gale,
    my anchor holds within the veil.

    all other ground is sinking sand,
    all other ground is sinking sand.

    O may I then in him be found,
    dressed in his righteousness alone,
    faultless to stand before the throne.
