Song Lyrics

For Sunday, March 29

 

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty
The King of creation
O, my soul, praise Him
For He is thy health and salvation
All ye who hear
Now to His temple draw near
Praise Him in glad adoration

Praise to the Lord, who o’er all things
So wondrously reigneth
Shelters thee under His wings, yea
So gently sustaineth
Hast thou not seen
How thy desires e’er have been
Granted in what He ordaineth?

Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper
Thy work and defend thee
Surely His goodness and mercy
Here daily attend thee
Ponder anew
What the Almighty can do
If with His love He befriend thee

Praise to the Lord, O let all that
Is in me adore Him
All that hath life and breath, come now
With praises before Him
Let the Amen
Sound from His people again
Gladly, for aye we adore Him

 

Mighty to Save

Everyone needs compassion
Love that’s never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations

Chorus
Savior, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save
Forever, author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender

Bridge
Shine Your light and
Let the whole world see, we’re singing
For the glory of the risen King, Jesus
Shine Your light and
Let the whole world see, we’re singing
For the glory of the risen King

 

Savior of the World

God so loved that He gave His Son
To lay down His life for the sake of us
He bore the weight of our sin and shame
With a cry He said, “It is finished”
Christ the Lord overcame the darkness
He’s alive, death has been defeated

Chorus
For He made us a way
By which we have been saved
He’s the Savior of the world
So we lift up a shout
For His fame and renown
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord
Jesus, Savior of the world

We must spread the word of His soon return
To reclaim the world for His glory
Let the church now sing of this coming King
Crowned with majesty, our Redeemer
And He reigns, ruler of the heavens
And His name is Jesus, the Messiah

Bridge
Christ the Lord overcame the darkness
He’s alive, death has been defeated
And He reigns, ruler of the heavens
And His name is Jesus, the Messiah

 

Speak O Lord

Speak, O Lord, as we come to You
To receive the food of Your holy word
Take Your truth, plant it deep in us
Shape and fashion us in Your likeness
That the light of Christ might be seen today
In our acts of love and our deeds of faith
Speak, O Lord, and fulfill in us
All Your purposes for Your glory

Teach us Lord full obedience
Holy reverence, true humility
Test our thoughts and our attitudes
In the radiance of Your purity
Cause our faith to rise, cause our eyes to see
Your majestic love and authority
Words of power that can never fail
Let their truth prevail over unbelief

Speak, O Lord, and renew our minds
Help us grasp the heights of Your plans for us
Truths unchanged from the dawn of time
That will echo down through eternity
And by grace we’ll stand on Your promises
And by faith we’ll walk as You walk with us
Speak, O Lord, till Your church is built
And the earth is filled with Your glory

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 1
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

Chorus 2
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
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

 

Benediction: Hebrews 13:20-21

Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
