Jesus Lives and So Shall I
Death Thy Sting is gone forever!
He who designed for me to die,
Lives, the bands of death to sever.

Chorus:
He shall raise me from the dust.
Jesus is my hope and trust.
He alone my joy, my prize!
Jesus lives and so shall I!
Jesus lives and so shall I!

Jesus lives and reigns supreme;
And, his kingdom still remaining,
I shall also be with him,
Ever living, ever reigning. Chorus

Jesus lives and death is now
But my entrance into glory.
Courage, then, my soul, for thou
Hast a crown of life before thee. Chorus

Music: William Brmphrey / c2003 PseudoMusic

All hail the power of Jesus'name!
Let angels prostrate fall;
Bring forth the royal diadem
and crown him Lord of all;
Bring forth the royal diadem
and crown him Lord of all.

Ye seed of Israel's chosen race,
ye ransomed from the fall,
Hail him who saves you by his grace,
and crown him Lord of all;
Hail him who saves you by his grace,
and crown him Lord of all.

Sinners, whose love can ne'er forget!
the wormwood and the gall,
Go, spread your trophies at his feet,
and crown him Lord of all;
Go, spread your trophies at his feet,
and crown him Lord of all.

Let every kindred, every tribe,
on this terrestrial ball,
To him all majesty ascribe,
and crown him Lord of all;
To him all majesty ascribe,
and crown him Lord of all ,

Text: Edward Perronet (1779)
Music: William Shrubsole(1779)

Jesus, thy boundless love to me,
No thought can reach,
no tongue declare;
O knit my thankful heart to thee
And reign without a rival there;
Thine Wholly, thine alone, I am;
Be thou alone my constant flame.

O grant that nothing in my soul
May dwell but thy pure love alone;
O may thy love possess me whole,
My joy, my treasure and my crown;
All coldness from my heart remove;
May every act and thought be love.

O Love, how gracious is thy way!
All fear before thy presence flies;
Anguish and sorrow melt away,
Where'er thy healing beams arise;
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek but thee.

Blessing and honor and glory and power,
Wisdom and riches
And strength evermore.
Give ye to him who our battle hath won
Whose are the kingdom,
the crown and the throne.

Soundeth the heaven of the heavens with his wisdom,
Rigneth the earth with his glory and fame;
Ocean and mountain and forest and flower
Echo his praises and tell of his power.

CHORUS:
Blessing and honor, honor and glory,
Blessing and honor and glory and power,
Blessing and honor, honor and glory,
Glory and power be ever the themes of the hymns that we raise!

Ever ascendeth the song and the praises.
Ever decendeth the love from on high,
Blessing and honor and glory and praise,
This is the theme of the hymns that we raise.

Give we the glory and praise to our Savior.
Take we the robe and the harp and the palm;
Sing we the song of the Lamb that was slain.
Dying in weakness but raising to reign. Chorus

Text: Horatius Bonar (1866)

Chorus:
I will sing praise to the Lord
With every part of my life
My hope s in you
The maker of Heaven and earth
The Lord who reigns forever and ever.

I will sing praise to the Lord
With every part of my life
My hope s in you
The maker of Heaven and earth
The Lord who reigns forever and evermore.

You bring sight to the blind.
Grace to the lowly.
You watch over the weak,
You set the prisoner free! Chorus

You give hope to the poor,
Food to the hungry,
You are faithful to those
Who call upon you Name! chorus

Text: Jennings/c1998 Redeemer Music

My goal is god Himself,
Not joy nor peace,
Nor even blessing but Himself, my God.
‘Tis His to lead me there,
not mine, but His
At any cost, dear Lord by and road
So faith bounds forward to its goal in God,
And love can trust her Lord to lead her there.
Upheld by Him, my soul is following hard
‘Til God hath fulfilled m deepest prayer.

No matter though the way be sometimes dark.
No matter though the cost be oft-times great.
He knoweth how I best should reach the mark.
The path that leads to Him, it mus be straight.

One thing I know, that “no” I cannot say;
One thing I do, I press towards my Lord.
My God, my glory here from day to day
And in the glory there, my great reward.

Come unto me
All ye who labor
Come and receive
rest from your burdens
Come, find your tears
drowning in mercy.
Come, see your darkness
dispelled by My light.

Beauty for ashes,
gladness for mourning,
Anthems of joy in place
of songs of loud despairing;
Pleasure for sorrow,
comfort for grieving,
Covering brokenhearted souls
in robes of splendor.

from Matthew 11 and Isaiah 61
Tom Jennings/c2001 Redeemer Music

Just as I am, without one plea
But that thy blood was shed for me,
And that thou bid me come to thee,
O Lamb of God, 1 come to thee.

Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come to thee.

Chorus:
Just as I am, without one plea,
O Lamb of God, I come to thee.

Just as I am, though tossed about
With many conflicts many doubts,
Fightings and fears within, without
O Lamb of God, I come to thee.
Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind;
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need, in thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come to thee. Chorus

Just as I am, thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down;
Now, to be thine, yea, thine alone,
O Lamb of God. I come to thee. Chorus

The Lord is my shepherd and I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down.
He leadeth me to the waters so still
He restoreth my soul.

He leadeth me in paths of righteousness
All for the sake of his name.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of death
He shall comfort me.

A table before me thou hast now prepared
Before my enemies' gaze.
Goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life.

from Psalm 23
Gary Haase/c1999 Headmu Music

Praise, my soul, the King of Heaven,
To his feet your tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Who, like me, his praise should sing?
Praise him, praise him,
praise him, praise him.
Praise the everlasting King.

As a father tends and spares us;
Well our feeble frame he knows;
In his hand he gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes;
Praise him, praise him,
Widely as his mercy goes.

Frail as summer's flower we flourish.
Blows the wind and it is gone;
But while mortals rise and perish,
God endures unchanging on.
Praise him, praise him,
praise him, praise him,
Praise the High Eternal One.

Praise him, praise him,
praise him, praise him,
Praise the everlasting King.
Praise him, praise him,
praise him, praise him,
Praise with us the God of grace.

music: Tom Jennings C1999 Redeemer Music

Alas! and did my Savior bleed
and did my Sovereign die!
Would he devote that sacred head
for such a worm as I!
Was it for crimes that I had done
he groaned upon the tree!
Amazing pity grace unknown!
And love beyond degree.

Well might the sun in darkness hide,
and shut his glories in.
When Christ, the mighty Maker died
for man the creature's sin.
Thus might I hide my blushing face
while his dear cross appears;
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
and melt my eyes in tears.

But drops of grief can ne'er repay
the debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away,
'tis all that I can do.
Alas! and did my Savior bleed
and did my Sovereign die!
Would he devote that sacred head
for such a worm as I!
