Celebration of Life for Cheryl Bissey

 

What a Beautiful Name

You were the word at the beginning
One with God, the Lord most high
Your hidden glory in creation
Now revealed in You, our Christ

Chorus 1
What a beautiful name it is
What a beautiful name it is
The name of Jesus Christ, my King
What a beautiful name it is
Nothing compares to this
What a beautiful name it is, the name of Jesus

You didn’t want heaven without us
So Jesus, You brought heaven down
My sin was great, Your love was greater
What could separate us now?

Chorus 2
What a wonderful name it is
What a wonderful name it is
The name of Jesus Christ, my King
What a wonderful name it is
Nothing compares to this
What a wonderful name it is, the name of Jesus

Bridge 1
Death could not hold You
The veil tore before You
You silenced the boast of sin and grave
The heavens are roaring
The praise of Your glory
For You are raised to life again

Bridge 2
You have no rival, You have no equal
Now and forever, God, You reign
Yours is the kingdom, Yours is the glory
Yours is the Name above all names

Chorus 3
What a powerful name it is
What a powerful name it is
The name of Jesus Christ, my King
What a powerful name it is
Nothing can stand against
What a powerful name it is, the name of Jesus

 

Yet Not I, But Through Christ in Me

What gift of grace is Jesus, my redeemer
There is no more for heaven now to give
He is my joy, my righteousness, and freedom
My steadfast love, my deep and boundless peace

Chorus 1
To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
For my life is wholly bound to His
O, how strange and divine
I can sing “all is mine”
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

The night is dark, but I am not forsaken
For by my side, the Savior, He will stay
I labor on in weakness and rejoicing
For in my need, His power is displayed

Chorus 2
To this I hold, my Shepherd will defend me
Through the deepest valley, He will lead
O, the night has been won
And I shall overcome
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

No fate I dread, I know I am forgiven
The future’s sure, the price it has been paid
For Jesus bled and suffered for my pardon
And He was raised to overthrow the grave

Chorus 3
To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
All the glory evermore to Him
When the race is complete
Still my lips shall repeat
“Yet not I, but through Christ in me”

 

Somebody Prayed

Every night there by your bed
You fold your hands and bow your head
Throwing out another prayer in faith
When you’re wond’rin’ if He’s hearing you
Look at me, I’m living proof
I’m only right where I am today
Because somebody prayed

Chorus
So I hit my knees cause I’ve
Seen all heaven move
(Don’t matter if you hit rock bottom
My God pick you up when you call Him)
I pray, “Father, please”, cause I’ve
Seen what He can do
(Don’t matter if the storm cloud coming
My God come through when you call Him)
These hands have no power
But there ain’t an hour He don’t come through
That’s why when mountains move I say
“Looks like somebody prayed”

For the child of God that’s far from home
The one who thinks they’re too far gone
I’m throwing out another prayer in faith
Worn out altars, tear-stained pews
Still I won’t give up on you
I believe that anything can change
When somebody prays

Bridge
I’ve seen miracles come from feeble words
I’ve seen hospital rooms turned into cathedrals
And I’ve seen freedom come to the prisoner
You can’t tell me that prayer don’t work

So every night there by your bed
When you fold your hands and bow your head
Not a single word you’ve ever said in vain
Cause He hears everything

 

Revelation Song

Worthy is the
Lamb who was slain
Holy, holy is He
Sing a new song
To Him who sits on
Heaven’s mercy seat

Chorus
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing
Praise to the King of kings
You are my everything
And I will adore You

Clothed in rainbows
Of living color
Flashes of lightning, rolling thunder
Blessing and honor
Strength and
Glory and power be 
To You, the only wise King

Filled with wonder, awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your name
Jesus, Your name is power
Breath and living water
Such a marv’lous mystery

 

Doxology

Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise Him all creatures here below
Praise Him above ye heav’nly host
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Amen

 

Sermon: When a Holy God Calls a Sinful Man

Bible Passage:  Isaiah 6:1-13 (clicking on the verse will take you to the Bible passage)

 

Let Your Kingdom Come

Your glorious cause, O God
Engages our hearts
May Jesus Christ be known
Wherever we are
We ask not for ourselves
But for Your renown
The cross has saved us so we pray
Your kingdom come

Chorus
Let Your kingdom come
Let Your will be done
So that everyone might know Your name
Let Your song be heard
Everywhere on earth
Till Your sovereign work on earth is done
Let Your kingdom come

Give us Your strength, O God
And courage to speak
Perform Your wondrous deeds
Through those who are weak
Lord, use us as You want
Whatever the test
By grace we’ll preach Your gospel till
Our dying breath

 

Benediction: Jude 1:24-25
