Songs/Worship to our Lord!

There's a place where mercy reigns and never dies
There's a place where streams of grace flow deep and side
Where all the love I've ever found
Comes like a flood
Comes flowing down.

At the Cross
At the Cross
I surrender my life
I'm in awe of You
I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red
and my sin washed white
I owe all to You
I owe all to You, Jesus.

There's a place where sin and shame are powerless,
Where my heart has peace with God and forgiveness,
Where all the love I've ever found,
Comes like a flood
Comes flowing down.

At the Cross
At the Cross
I surrender my life,
I'm in awe of You,
I'm in awe of You,
Where Your love ran red
and my sin washed white,
I owe all to You,
I owe all to You, Jesus.

Here my hope is found,
Here on holy ground,
Here I bow down,
Here I bow down, Here arms open wide,
Here You save my life,
Here I bow down, 
Here I bow down.

At the Cross
At the Cross
I surrender my life,
I'm in awe of You
I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red
and my sin washed white,
I owe all to You,
I owe all to You, Jesus.

Lord, I would trust Thee completely; I would be altogether Thine; I would exalt Thee above all. I desire that I may feel no sense of possessing anything outside of Thee. I want constantly to be aware of Thy overshadowing presence and to hear Thy speaking voice. I long to live in restful sincerity of heart. I want to live so fully in the Holy Spirit that all my thoughts may be as sweet incense ascending to Thee and every act of my life may be an act of worship. Therefore I pray in the words of Thy great servant of old, "I beseech Thee so for to cleanse the intent of mine heart with the unspeakable gift of Thy grace, that I may perfectly love Thee and worthily praise Thee." And all this i confidently believe Thou will grant me through the merits of Jesus Christ Thy Son. Amen

Face to Face

~Carrie E. Breck~

Face to face with Christ my Saviour,
Face to face - what will it be,
When with rapture I behold Him,
Jesus Christ, who died for me?

Face to face I shall behold Him,
Far beyond the starry sky;
Face to face in all His glory,
I shall see Him by and by!

Only faintly now I see Him,
With the darkened veil between;
But a blessed day is coming,
When His glory shall be seen.

What rejoicing in His presence,
When are banished grief and pain;
When the crooked ways are straightened,
And the dark things shall be plain!

Face to Face! O blissful moment!
Face to face to see and know;
Face to face with my Redeemer,
Jesus Christ, who loves me so.

Thou Shepherd of Israel, and Mine"

~Charles Wesley~

Thou Shepherd of Israel, and mine,

The joy and desire of my heart,
For closer communion I pine,
I long to reside where Thou art:
The pasture I languish to find
Where all, who their Shepherd obey,
Are fed, on thy bosom reclined,
And screened from the heat of the day.

Ah! show me that happiest place,

The place of Thy people's abode,
Where saints in an ecstasy gaze,
And hang on a crucified God:
Thy love for a sinner declare,
Thy passion and death on the tree;
My spirit to Calvary bear,
To suffer and triumph with Thee.

'Tis there, with the lambs of Thy flock,

There only I cover to rest,
To lie at the foot of the rock,
Or rise to be hid in Thy breast;
'Tis there I would always abide,
And never a moment depart,
Concealed in the cleft of Thy side,
Eternally held in Thy heart.

The Light and Glory of the Word


~William Cowper~


The Spirit breaths upon the Word,

And brings the truth to sight;
Precepts and promises afford
A sanctifying light.

A glory gilds the sacred page,

Majestic like the sun:
It gives a light to every age;
It gives, but borrows none.

The hand that gave it still supplies

The gracious light and heat:
His truths upon the nations rise;
They rise, but never set.

Let everlasting thanks be Thine

For such a bright display
As makes a world of darkness shine
With beams of heavenly day.

My soul rejoices to pursue

The steps of Him I love,
Till glory break upon my view
In brighter worlds above.
