Song Lyrics

For Sunday, August 3

 

It Is Well With My Soul

When peace, like a river
Attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot
Thou has taught me to say
It is well, it is well
With my soul

Chorus
It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
It is well, it is well
With my soul

My sin, O, the bliss
Of this glorious thought
My sin, not in part, but the whole
Is nailed to the cross
And I bear it no more
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord
O, my soul

Though Satan should buffet
Though trials should come
Let this blest assurance control
That Christ hath regarded
My helpless estate
And hath shed His own blood
For my soul

And Lord haste the day
When my faith shall be sight
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll
The trump shall resound
And the Lord shall descend
Even so
It is well with my soul

 

Our God Saves

In the name of the Father
In the name of the Son
In the name of the Spirit
Lord, we come
We’re gathered together
To lift up Your name
To call on our Savior
To fall on Your grace

Hear the joyful sound
Of our offering
As Your saints bow down
As Your people sing
We will rise with You
Lifted on Your wings
And the world will see that

Chorus
Our God saves, our God saves
There is hope in Your name
Mourning turns to songs of praise
Our God saves, our God saves

 

He Will Hold Me Fast

When I fear my faith will fail
Christ will hold me fast
When the tempter would prevail
He will hold me fast
I could never keep my hold
Through life’s fearful path
For my love is often cold
He must hold me fast

Chorus
He will hold me fast
He will hold me fast
For my Savior loves me so
He will hold me fast

Those He saves are His delight
Christ will hold me fast
Precious in His holy sight
He will hold me fast
He’ll not let my soul be lost
His promises shall last
Bought by Him at such a cost
He will hold me fast

For my life He bled and died
Christ will hold me fast
Justice has been satisfied
He will hold me fast
Raised with Him to endless life
He will hold me fast
Till our faith is turned to sight
When He comes at last

 

Sermon: Take Courage

Bible Passage:  Acts 22:22-23:11 (clicking on the verse will take you to the Bible passage)

 

Indescribable

From the highest of heights
To the depths of sea
Creation’s revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall
To the fragrance of spring
Ev’ry creature unique
In the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Chorus
Indescribable, uncontainable
You placed the stars in the sky
And You know them by name
You are amazing, God
All powerful, untameable
Awestruck, we fall to our knees
As we humbly proclaim
You are amazing, God

Who has told every lightning bolt
Where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses
Laden with snow
Who imagined the sun
And gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us
The coolness of night
None can fathom

Tag
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart
And You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

 

Benediction: Ephesians 3:20-21
