  • Psalm 138

    1    Thee will I praise with all my heart,

              I will sing praise to thee

    2    Before the gods: And worship will

              toward thy sanctuary.

         I’ll praise thy name, ev’n for thy truth,

              and kindness of thy love;

         For thou thy word hast magnify’d

              all thy great name above.

    3    Thou didst me answer in the day

              when I to thee did cry;

         And thou my fainting soul with strength

              didst strengthen inwardly.

    4    All kings upon the earth that are

              shall give thee praise, O Lord,

         When as they from thy mouth shall hear

              thy true and faithful word.

    5    Yea, in the righteous ways of God

              with gladness they shall sing:

         For great’s the glory of the Lord;

              who doth for ever reign.

    6    Though God be high, yet he respects

              all those that lowly be;

         Whereas the proud and lofty ones

              afar off knoweth he.

    7    Though I in midst of trouble walk,

              I life from thee shall have:

        ‘Gainst my foes’ wrath thou’lt stretch thine hand;

              thy right hand shall me save.

    8    Surely that which concerneth me

              the Lord will perfect make:

         Lord, still thy mercy lasts; do not

              thine own hands’ works forsake.

  • Psalm 135

    1    Praise ye the Lord, the Lord’s name praise;

              his servants, praise ye God.

    2    Who stand in God’s house, in the courts

              of our God make abode.

    3    Praise ye the Lord, for he is good;

              unto him praises sing:

         Sing praises to his name, because

              it is a pleasant thing.

    4    For Jacob to himself the Lord

              did chuse of his good pleasure,

         And he hath chosen Israel

              for his peculiar treasure.

    5    Because I know assuredly

              the Lord is very great,

         And that our Lord above all gods

              in glory hath his seat.

    6    What things soever pleas’d the Lord,

              that in the heav’n did he,

         And in the earth, the seas, and all

              the places deep that be.

    7    He from the ends of earth doth make

              the vapours to ascend;

         With rain he lightnings makes, and wind

              doth from his treasures send.

    8    Egypt’s first-born, from man to beast

    9         who smote. Strange tokens he

         On Phar’oh and his servants sent,

              Egypt, in midst of thee.

    10   He smote great nations, slew great kings:

    11         Sihon of Heshbon king,

         And Og of Bashan, and to nought

              did Canaan’s kingdoms bring:

    12   And for a wealthy heritage

              their pleasant land he gave,

         An heritage which Israel,

              his chosen folk, should have.

    13   Thy name, O Lord, shall still endure,

              and thy memorial

         With honour shall continu’d be

              to generations all.

    14   For why? the righteous God will judge

              his people righteously;

         Concerning those that do him serve,

              himself repent will he.

    15   The idols of the nations

              of silver are and gold,

         And by the hands of men is made

              their fashion and mould.

    16   Mouths have they, but they do not speak;

              eyes, but they do not see;

    17   Ears have they, but hear not; and in

              their mouths no breathing be.

    18   Their makers are like them; so are

              all that on them rely.

    19   O Isr’el’s house, bless God; bless God,

              O Aaron’s family.

    20   O bless the Lord, of Levi’s house

              ye who his servants are;

         And bless the holy name of God,

              all ye the Lord that fear.

    21   And blessed be the Lord our God

              from Sion’s holy hill,

         Who dwelleth at Jerusalem.

              The Lord O praise ye still.

  • Psalm 132

    1    David, and his afflictions all,

              Lord, do thou think upon;

    2    How unto God he sware, and vow’d

              to Jacob’s mighty One.

    3    I will not come within my house,

              nor rest in bed at all;

    4    Nor shall mine eyes take any sleep,

              nor eyelids slumber shall;

    5    Till for the Lord a place I find,

              where he may make abode;

         A place of habitation

              for Jacob’s mighty God.

    6    Lo, at the place of Ephratah

              of it we understood;

         And we did find it in the fields,

              and city of the wood.

    7    We’ll go into his tabernacles,

              and at his footstool bow.

    8    Arise, O Lord, into thy rest,

              th’ ark of thy strength, and thou.

    9    O let thy priests be clothed, Lord,

              with truth and righteousness;

         And let all those that are thy saints

              shout loud for joyfulness.

    10   For thine own servant David’s sake,

              do not deny thy grace;

         Nor of thine own anointed one

              turn thou away the face.

    11   The Lord in truth to David sware,

              he will not turn from it,

         I of thy body’s fruit will make

              upon thy throne to sit.

    12   My cov’nant if thy sons will keep,

              and laws to them made known,

         Their children then shall also sit

              for ever on thy throne.

    13   For God of Sion hath made choice;

              there he desires to dwell.

    14   This is my rest, here still I’ll stay;

              for I do like it well.

    15   Her food I’ll greatly bless; her poor

              with bread will satisfy.

    16   Her priests I’ll clothe with health; her saints

              shall shout forth joyfully.

    17   And there will I make David’s horn

              to bud forth pleasantly:

         For him that mine anointed is

              a lamp ordain’d have I.

    18   As with a garment I will clothe

              with shame his en’mies all:

         But yet the crown that he doth wear

              upon him flourish shall.

  • Behold The Lamb

    VERSE 1
    Behold the Lamb who bears our sins away,
    Slain for us – and we remember
    The promise made that all who come in faith
    Find forgiveness at the cross. So we share in this bread of life,
    And we drink of His sacrifice As a sign of our bonds of peace
    Around the table of the King. 

    VERSE 2
    The body of our Saviour Jesus Christ,
    Torn for you – eat and remember
    The wounds that heal, the death that brings us life
    Paid the price to make us one.
    So we share in this bread of life, And we drink of His sacrifice
    As a sign of our bonds of love Around the table of the King. 

    VERSE 3
    The blood that cleanses every stain of sin,
    Shed for you – drink and remember
    He drained death’s cup that all may enter in
    To receive the life of God.
    So we share in this bread of life,
    And we drink of His sacrifice As a sign of our bonds of grace
    Around the table of the King. 

    VERSE 4
    And so with thankfulness and faith we rise To respond, – and to remember
    Our call to follow in the steps of Christ As His body here on earth.
    As we share in His suffering
    We proclaim Christ will come again!
    And we’ll join in the feast of heaven Around the table of the King ” 

  • O Christ What Burdens Bowed Thy Head

    VERSE 1
    O Christ, what burdens bowed Thy head! Our load was laid on Thee;
    Thou stoodes’t in the sinner’s stead, Didst bear all ill for me.
    A Victim led, Thy blood was shed; Now there’s no load for me. 

    VERSE 2
    Death and the curse were in our cup: O Christ, ’twas full for Thee;
    But Thou hast drained the last dark drop, ’Tis empty now for me.
    That bitter cup, love drank it up; Now blessing’s draught for me. 

    VERSE 3
    Jehovah lifted up His rod; O Christ, it fell on Thee!
    Thou wast sore stricken of Thy God; There’s not one stroke for me.
    Thy tears, Thy blood, beneath it flowed; Thy bruising healeth me. 

    VERSE 4
    The tempest’s awful voice was heard, O Christ, it broke on Thee!
    Thy open bosom was my ward, It braved the storm for me.
    Thy form was scarred, Thy visage marred; Now cloudless peace for me.

    VERSE 5
    Jehovah bade His sword awake; O Christ, it woke ’gainst Thee!
    Thy blood the flaming blade must slake; Thine heart its sheath must be;
    All for my sake, my peace to make; Now sleeps that sword for me. 

    VERSE 6
    For me, Lord Jesus, Thou hast died, And I have died in Thee!
    Thou’rt ris’n—my hands are all untied, And now Thou liv’st in me.
    When purified, made white and tried, Thy glory then for me!

    The thoughts of such amazing bliss The thoughts of such amazing bliss
    Should constant joys create. Should constant joys create.

    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:

    We are marching through Immanuel’s grounds; We are marching through Immanuel’s grounds
    To fairer worlds on high. To fairer worlds on high.
