Song Lyrics

For Sunday, July 13

 

And Can It Be

And can it be that I should gain
An int’rest in the Savior’s blood
Died He for me, who caused His pain
For me, who Him to death pursued
Amazing love, how can it be
That Thou, my God, should die for me

Chorus
Amazing love, how can it be
That Thou, my God, should die for me

He left His Father’s throne above
So free, so infinite His grace
Emptied Himself of all but love
And bled for Adam’s helpless race
‘Tis mercy all, immense and free
For, O my God, it found out me

Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature’s night
Thine eye diffused a quick’ning ray
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light
My chains fell off, my heart was free
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee

No condemnation now I dread
Jesus, and all in Him is mine
Alive in Him, my living Head
And clothed in righteousness divine
Bold I approach th’eternal throne
And claim the crown through Christ my own

 

I Believe Jesus Saves

For God loved the world in this way
He gave His one and only Son
So that everyone who believes in Him
Will not perish
But have eternal life

Chorus
I believe I need forgiveness
I believe I need His grace
I believe His love
Has made the difference in my life
I believe Jesus saves
I believe Jesus saves
I believe, I believe
I believe Jesus saves

 

Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus

O soul, are you weary and troubled
No light in the darkness you see
There’s a light for a look at the Savior
And life more abundant and free

Chorus
Turn Your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace

Through death into life everlasting
He passed, and we follow Him there
Over us sin no more hath dominion
For more than conquerors we are

His Word shall not fail you, He promised
Believe Him, and all will be well
Then go to a world that is dying
His perfect salvation to tell

 

Sermon: Saved By Grace

Bible Passage:  Romans 11:1-15 (clicking on the verse will take you to the Bible passage)

 

Amazing Grace

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind, but now I see

‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come
‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home

The Lord has promised good to me
His Word my hope secures
He will my Shield and Portion be
As long as life endures

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease
I shall possess, within the veil
A life of joy and peace

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, who called me here below
Will be forever mine

When we’ve been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun

 

Benediction: Ephesians 3:20-21
