Praise Him, Praise Him

Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus our blessed Redeemer!

Sing, O earth; His wonderful love proclaim!

Hail Him! Hail Him! highest archangels in glory!

Strength and honor give to his holy name!

Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard His children;

In His arms He carries them all day long.

Praise Him! Praise Him!

Tell of His excellent greatness.

Praise Him! Praise Him!

Ever in joyful song!

Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus our blessed Redeemer!

For our sins He suffered and bled and died.

He our Rock, our hope of eternal salvation,

Hail Him! Hail Him! Jesus the Crucified.

Sound His praises! Jesus who bore our sorrows,

Love unbounded, wonderful, deep, and strong.

The Power of the Cross

Oh, to see the dawn of the darkest day:

Christ on the road to Calvary. Tried by sinful men,

Torn and beaten, then nailed to a cross of wood. 

This, the pow'r of the cross: Christ became sin for us;

Took the blame, bore the wrath—

We stand forgiven at the cross. 

Oh, to see the pain written on Your face,

Bearing the awesome weight of sin. Ev'ry bitter thought,

Ev'ry evil deed crowning Your blood-stained brow. 

Now the daylight flees; Now the ground beneath

Quakes as its Maker bows His head. Curtain torn in two,

Dead are raised to life; "Finished!" the vict'ry cry.

Oh, to see my name written in the wounds,

For through Your suffering I am free. Death is crushed to death;

Life is mine to live, Won through Your selfless love. 

This, the pow'r of the cross: Son of God—slain for us.

What a love! What a cost! We stand forgiven at the cross.

Grace Alone

Every promise we can make,  every prayer and step of faith, 

Every difference we will make is only by His grace 

Every mountain we will climb, every ray of hope we shine, 

Every blessing left behind is only by His grace 

Grace alone  which God supplies. 

Strength unknown He will provide. 

Christ in us our Cornerstone — 

We will go forth in grace alone.

Every soul we long to reach, every heart we hope to teach,

Everywhere we share His peace is only by His grace. 

Every loving word we say, every tear we wipe away, 

Every sorrow turned to praise is only by His grace.

How Great Thou Art

O Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder

Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made,

I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,

Thy pow’r throughout the universe displayed.

Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee

How great Thou art! How great Thou art!

Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee;

How great Thou art! How great Thou art!

When thru the woods and forest glades I wander

And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees,

When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur

And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze,

And when I think that God, His Son not sparing,

Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;

That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,

He bled and died to take away my sin.

When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation

And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart!

Then I shall bow in humble adoration

And there proclaim: my God, how great Thou art!
