1 Thessalonians 5:12-13
Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who work hard among you, who care for you in the Lord and who admonish you. 13Hold them in the highest regard in love because of their work. Live in peace with each other.
HOSANNA (PRAISE IS RISING)
Praise is raising, eyes are turning to You.
We turn to You.
Hope is stirring, hearts are yearning for You
We long for you.
'Cause when we see You we find strength
to face the day, and in Your presence all our fears are washed away, washed away.
Chorus
Hosanna, Hosanna
You are the God who saves us.
You're worthy of all our praise.
Hosanna, Hosanna
Come have Your way among us.
We welcome You here Lord Jesus.
Hear the sound of hearts returning to You.
We turn to You.
In Your kingdom broken lives are made new.
You make all things new.
'Cause when we see You we find strength
to face the day, and in Your presence all our fears are washed away, washed away.
come, thou fount of every blessing
Come, thou fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing thy grace. Streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise. Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount, I’m fixed upon it, mount of God’s redeeming love.
Here I raise my Ebenezer, hither by thy help I’m come, and I hope, by thy good pleasure, safely to arrive at home. Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God. He, to rescue me from danger, interposed his precious blood.
Oh, to grace how great a debtor daily I’m constrained to be! Let that grace now, like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to Thee.
Prone to wander, Lord I feel it, prone to leave the God I love. Here’s my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for Thy courts above.
WHAT LOVE IS THIS? Hellings
What love is this I see
You gave Your life for me
Shed blood to set me free
Thank You for Your blood
Thank You for Your blood
How great this sacrifice
Your death to me means life
From darkness into light
Thank You for Your blood
Thank You for Your blood
Now I am truly free
Your love amazes me
I see Your hands Your feet
The price You paid for me

GOD WITH US Barry Graul
Who are we
That You would be mindful of us
What do You see
That’s worth looking our way
We are free, In ways that we never should be
Sweet release
From the grip of these chains.
Like hinges straining from the weight
My heart no longer can keep from singing.
Chorus
All that is within me cries
For You alone be glorified
Emmanuel God with us
My heart sings a brand new song
The debt is paid these chains are gone
Emmanuel God with us.
Lord You know
Our hearts don't deserve Your glory
Still You show
A love we cannot afford
Like hinges straining from the weight
My heart no longer can keep from singing.
Bridge:
Such a tiny offering
Compared to Calvary
Nevertheless we lay it at your feet.
