1.
Wonderful, merciful Savior,
Precious Redeemer and Friend;
Who would have thought that a Lamb could
Rescue the souls of men?
Oh, You rescue the souls of men.
Chorus
You are the One that we praise,
You are the One we adore.
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for;
Oh, our hearts always hunger for.
2.
Counselor, Comforter, Keeper,
Spirit we long to embrace;
You offer hope when our hearts have
Hopelessly lost the way;
Oh, we've hopelessly lost the way.
Chorus
You are the One that we praise,
You are the One we adore.
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for;
Oh, our hearts always hunger for.
3.
Almighty, infinite Father,
Faithfully loving Your own;
Here in our weakness You find us
Falling before Your throne;
Oh, we're falling before Your throne.
Chorus
You are the One that we praise,
You are the One we adore.
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for;
Oh, our hearts always hunger for.
1.
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 turns His face away
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory.
2.
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.
3.
I will not boast in anything,
No gifts, no pow'r, 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.
1.
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 heav'n He stands,
:: No tongue can bid me thence depart. ::
2.
When Satan tempts me to despair,
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end to 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. ::
3.
Behold Him there, the risen Lamb!
My perfect, spotless Righteousness;
The great unchangeable I AM,
The King of glory and of grace!
One with Himself I cannot die;
My soul is purchased with His blood;
My life is hid with Christ on high,
:: With Christ my Savior and my God! ::
1.
We are a moment, You are forever,
Lord of the ages, God before time.
We are a vapor, You are eternal,
Love everlasting, reigning on high.
Chorus
Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty;
Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain!
Highest praises, honor and glory
Be unto Your name, be unto Your name.
2.
We are the broken, You are the Healer,
Jesus, Redeemer, mighty to save.
Worthy of praises we'll sing forever,
Bowing before You, blessing Your name.
Chorus
Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty;
Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain!
Highest praises, honor and glory
Be unto Your name, be unto Your name.
1.
Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler of all nature,
O Thou of God and man the Son,
Thee will I cherish, Thee will I honor,
Thou, my soul's glory, joy, and crown!
2.
Fair are the meadows,
Fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring:
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.
3.
Fair is the sunshine, fairer still the moonlight,
And all the twinkling starry host:
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer,
Than all the angels heav'n can boast.
4.
Beautiful Savior! Lord of the nations!
Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor, praise, adoration,
Now and forevermore be Thine!
1.
Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes;
Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days
Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we praise.
2.
Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
Nor wanting, nor wasting Thou rulest in might;
Thy justice, like mountains, high soaring above
Thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.
3.
To all, life Thou givest, to both great and small;
In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;
We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
And wither and perish but naught changeth Thee.
4.
Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
Thine angels adore Thee, all veiling their sight.
All praise we would render; O help us to see
'Tis only the splendor of light hideth Thee!
1.
All who have learned to know the Lord
Believe Him true with one accord;
In those who on His promise build
His Word has always been fulfilled.
2.
This is the truth and will remain,
For God each promise doth sustain;
In trusting Him we feel assured,
Believing in Jehovah’s Word.
3.
He who this Shepherd fast does hold,
Who for the sins of all the world,
Himself an offering became,
Has made his fortune in His name.
1.
Lord, Thou creator, glorious is Thy kingdom!
In all the world we sing of Thy great fame.
The hosts of heav’n with all the true and faithful
Eternally shall praise Thy holy name.
Thou art exalted there in heaven’s splendor,
And kings and powers shall to Thee surrender.
2.
The might and plan of foes Thou art destroying,
As gracious wonder in Thy cov’nant new,
The mouths of Thine own children now employing,
Thou art preparing Thee a power, too,
Unto Thy honor and unto Thy glory,
Whereby at length Thy foes must bow before Thee.
3.
O Lord, how wondrous is Thy strength and kindness
Which Thou to mortal man dost yet reveal!
Thy love is shown to us in all its fullness,
For through Thy grace our guilt no more we feel.
True innocence is still Thy adoration,
And children have Thy special invitation.
4.
Thy blood has made atonement for Thy children;
Thy grace and love to them has e’er been shared.
How precious are the words which Thou has spoken:
“My kingdom for the meek has been prepared!”
The sinful man is called to Thy allegiance,
And as Thy child is led unto obedience.
5.
When I behold Thy strength and mighty power,
Thou, God and Ruler of the hosts of light,
The moon and stars and all Thy works so wondrous
Proclaim Thy glory and Thy sovereign might!
How wonderful, O Lord, is Thy creation!
We worship Thee in holy admiration.
6.
0, what is man that Thou shouldst him remember,
The son of man, that Thou for him shouldst care,
That Thou to him Thy saving grace shouldst render,
Yea, that Thou didst his very nature share?
Thou hast Thyself, Thy precious lifeblood given,
An offering to ransom him for heaven.
7.
Though for a moment Thou hast him forsaken,
With praise and honor Thou dost him receive.
To light and life Thou dost him then awaken;
O, who can this Thy love divine perceive?
Thou grantest righteousness and grace, O Saviour,
And leadest him on heavenly ways forever.
8.
Thou wilt again exalt him in high measure,
When he the battle of the faith has fought;
And once again Thou wilt in him find pleasure,
When Thou hast him unto Thy glory brought.
O Lord, our Ruler, may Thy praise forever
Be sung by choirs of all Thy children ever!
1.
Our love shall not diminish
Nor fade nor wane away;
:: Bind us till life we finish
And in the grave we lay. ::
2.
Our love shall not diminish;
It is our Lord’s command,
:: And free us from all blemish,
Before our God to stand. ::
3.
Though all this world be fleeting,
True love will still abide,
:: And when our journey’s ending,
Lord, lead us to Thy side. ::
4.
Yea, greater love shall be there
More perfect and complete,
:: When freed from pain and sorrow,
Our Lord and God we meet. ::
5.
Earth's trials and temptations
Make true love manifest,
:: To gain for us salvation
And heaven's joy and rest. ::
6.
Pure love leads to perfection,
Joy of our soul and guide,
:: Gives us true satisfaction,
And leads to heaven's light. ::
1.
Love, of all gifts, is the greatest
Which the Spirit does bestow.
Though I had a voice like angels,
Lacking love, I truly know
That I’d be a tinkling cymbal
Or a wretched sounding brass;
For although the sound were present,
Lifeless through this world I’d pass.
2.
O, Thou Spirit which has given
To me grace to seek my Lord,
Teach me strive for love of heaven
And to love Thy precious word!
Love has mercy and is patient;
Hasty ways it does not own;
Humbleness of mind is present;
With true peace it has its home.
3.
Love is of a friendly nature,
Does no selfish thought possess;
Love is not a sin partaker,
And is free from bitterness.
Love is truthful, not deceitful,
Does here ev’ry burden bear;
And, enduring is so fruitful
In all trials joy to share.
The Lord is my shephard;
No want I'll suffer;
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures,
And leadeth me by the still waters.
He my soul in peace restoreth.
He leadeth me on rightous pathways
To His name's praise and honor.
And though I walk in the vale of darkness here,
I need fear no evil,
For Thou art with me,
For Thou art with me.
Thy rod and Thy staff comfort me.
Thou preparest a table for me
In the face of my foes.
Annountest my head with oil;
My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy
Follow me all the days of my life
And thus shall I dwell in God's holy house
Now and forevermore,
In God's holy house evermore,
In God's holy house evermore.
1.
And can it be that I should gain
An int'rest in the Savior's blood?
Died He for me who caused His pain?
For me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Chorus
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me!
2.
He left His Father's throne above,
So free, so infinite His grace!
Emptied Himself of all but love,
And bled for Adam's helpless race!
'Tis mercy all, immense and free,
O praise my God, it found out me.
Chorus
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me!
3.
Long my imprisoned spirit lay,
Fast bound in sin and nature's night.
Thine eye diffused a quick'ning ray;
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light!
My chains fell off, my heart was free;
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.
Chorus
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me!
4.
No condemnation now I dread:
Jesus and all in Him is mine!
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness divine!
Bold I approach th'eternal throne,
And claim the crown through Christ my own!
Chorus
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me!
1.
I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner condem’d, unclean.
Chorus
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
Is my Saviour’s love for me!
2.
For me it was in the garden
He pray’d; “Not My Will, but Thine,”
He had no tears for His own griefs,
But sweat drops of blood for mine.
Chorus
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
Is my Saviour’s love for me!
3.
In pity angels beheld Him,
And came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows
He bore for my soul that night.
Chorus
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
Is my Saviour’s love for me!
4.
He took my sins and my sorrows,
He made them His very own;
He bore the burden to Calv’ry,
And suffer’d, and died alone.
Chorus
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
Is my Saviour’s love for me!
5.
When with the ransom’d in glory
His face I at last shall see,
‘Twill be my joy thro’ the ages
To sing of His love for me.
Chorus
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful
Is my Saviour’s love for me!
1.
All hail the power of Jesus’ name!
Let angels prostrate fall,
Let angels prostrate fall,
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown Him,
Crown Him, crown Him, crown Him;
And crown Him Lord of all!
2.
Ye chosen seed of Israel’s race,
Ye ransomed from the fall,
Ye ransomed from the fall,
Hail Him who saves you by His grace,
And crown Him,
Crown Him, crown Him, crown Him;
And crown Him Lord of all!
3.
Let ev’ry kindred, ev’ry tribe,
On this terrestrial ball,
On this terrestrial ball,
To Him all majesty ascribe,
And crown Him,
Crown Him, crown Him, crown Him;
And crown Him Lord of all!
4.
O that with yonder sacred throng
We at His feet may fall,
We at His feet may fall,
We’ll join the everlasting song,
And crown Him,
Crown Him, crown Him, crown Him;
And crown Him Lord of all!
1.
He leadeth me! O blessed tho’t!
O words with heav’nly comfort fraught!
Whate’er I do, where’er I be,
Still ‘tis God’s hand that leadeth me.
Chorus
He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.
2.
Sometimes ‘mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden’s bowers bloom,
By waters still, o’er troubled sea,
Still ‘tis His hand that leadeth me!
Chorus
He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.
3.
Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine,
Content, whatever lot I see,
Since ‘tis my God that leadeth me!
Chorus
He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.
4.
And when my task on earth is done,
When, by Thy grace, the victry’s won,
E’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,
Since God thro’ Jordan leadeth me.
Chorus
He leadeth me, He leadeth me,
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.
1.
Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my hands, and let them move
:: At the impulse of Thy love. ::
2.
Take my feet, and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee;
Take my voice, and let me sing
:: Always, only for my King. ::
3.
Take my silver and my gold,
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my moments and my days,
:: Let them flow in ceaseless praise. ::
4.
Take my will and make it Thine,
It shall be no longer mine;
Take my heart, it is Thine own,
:: It shall be Thy royal throne. ::
