Rock of Ages

 Verse 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee;

Let the water and the blood,

From Thy wounded side which flowed,

Be of sin the double cure,

Save from wrath and make me pure.

Verse 2 Not the labors of my hands,

Can fulfill Thy law's demands;

Could my zeal no respite know,

Could my tears forever flow,

All for sin could not atone;

Thou must save, and Thou alone.

Verse 3 Nothing in my hand I bring,

Simply to Thy cross I cling;

Naked, come to Thee for dress;

Helpless, look to Thee for grace;

Foul, I to the fountain fly;

Wash me Savior, or I die.

Verse 4 While I draw this fleeting breath,

When my eyes shall close in death,

When I soar to worlds unknown,

See Thee on Thy judgment throne,

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee.

Jesus I My Cross Have Taken

 Verse 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken,

All to leave and follow Thee.

Destitute, despised, forsaken,

Thou from hence my all shall be.

Perish every fond ambition,

All I’ve sought or hoped or known.

Yet how rich is my condition

God and heaven are still my own.

Verse 2 Let the world despise and leave me,

They have left my Savior, too.

Human hearts and looks deceive me;

Thou art not, like them, untrue.

O while Thou dost smile upon me,

God of wisdom, love, and might,

Foes may hate and friends disown me,

Show Thy face and all is bright.

Verse 3 Man may trouble and distress me,

’Twill but drive me to Thy breast.

Life with trials hard may press me;

Heaven will bring me sweeter rest.

Oh, ’tis not in grief to harm me

While Thy love is left to me;

Oh, ’twere not in joy to charm me,

Were that joy unmixed with Thee.

Verse 4 Go, then, earthly fame and treasure,

Come disaster, scorn and pain

In Thy service, pain is pleasure,

With Thy favor, loss is gain

I have called Thee Abba Father,

I have stayed my heart on Thee

Storms may howl, and clouds may gather;

All must work for good to me.

Verse 5 Soul, then know thy full salvation

Rise o’er sin and fear and care

Joy to find in every station,

Something still to do or bear.

Think what Spirit dwells within thee,

Think what Father’s smiles are thine,

Think that Jesus died to win thee,

Child of heaven, canst thou repine.

Verse 6 Haste thee on from grace to glory,

Armed by faith, and winged by prayer.

Heaven’s eternal days before thee,

God’s own hand shall guide us there.

Soon shall close thy earthly mission,

Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days,

Hope shall change to glad fruition,

Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.

Come Praise and Glorify

Verse 1 Come praise and glorify our God,

The Father of our Lord.

In Christ, He has in heavn'ly realms,

His blessings on us poured.

For pure and blameless in His sight

He destined us to be,

And now we've been adopted through

His Son eternally.

Chorus To the praise of Your glory,

To the praise of Your mercy and grace.

To the praise of Your glory,

You are the God who saves.

Verse 2 Come praise and glorify our God,

Who gives His grace in Christ.

In Him our sins are washed away,

Redeemed through sacrifice.

In Him God has made known to us

The myst'ry of His will,

That Christ should be the head of all,

His purpose to fulfill.

Chorus

Verse 3 Come praise and glorify our God,

For we've believed the Word.

And through our faith we have a seal,

The Spirit of the Lord.

The Spirit guarantees our hope

Until redemption's done,

Until we join in endless praise

To God, the Three in One.

Chorus

All Glory Be To Christ

Verse 1 Should nothing of our efforts stand

No legacy survive

Unless the Lord does raise the house

In vain its builders strive

To you who boast tomorrow’s gain

Tell me what is your life

A mist that vanishes at dawn

All glory be to Christ!

Chorus All glory be to Christ our King!

All glory be to Christ!

His rule and reign we'll ever sing

All glory be to Christ!

Verse 2 His will be done, His kingdom come

On earth as is above

Who is Himself our daily bread

Praise Him the Lord of love

Let living water satisfy

The thirsty without price

We’ll take a cup of kindness yet

All glory be to Christ!

Chorus

Verse 3 When on the day the great I Am

The faithful and the true

The Lamb who was for sinners slain

Is making all things new

Behold our God shall live with us

And be our steadfast light

And we shall ere his people be

All glory be to Christ!

Chorus

Amazing Grace

Verse 1 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.

Verse 2 ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed!

Verse 3 The Lord has promised good to me,

His word my hope secures;

He will my shield and portion be,

As long as life endures.

Verse 4 Thru many dangers, toils and snares

I have already come;

‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,

And grace will lead me home.

Verse 5 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.

Be Thou My Vision

Verse 1 Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart

Nought be all else to me, save that Thou art;

Thou my best thought, by day or by night

Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Verse 2 Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word

I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;

Thou my great Father, I Thy true son

Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Verse 3 Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise

Thou mine inheritance, now and always;

Thou and Thou only, first in my heart

High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

Verse 4 High King of Heaven, my victory won,

May I reach Heav'n's joys, O bright Heav'n's Sun!

Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,

Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Complete In Thee

Verse 1 Complete in Thee, no work of mine,

May take dear Lord the place of Thine,

Thy blood hath pardon bought for me;

And I am now complete in Thee.

Chorus Yea justified, Oh blessed thought!

And sanctified, salvation wrought

Thy blood hath pardon bought for me

And glorified I too shall be.

Verse 2 Complete in Thee, each want supplied,

And no good thing to me denied,

Since Thou my portion Lord will be,

I ask no more, complete in Thee.

Chorus

Verse 3 Complete in Thee, no more shall sin,

Thy grace hath conquered, reign within,

Thy voice shall bid the tempter flee,

And I shall stand complete in Thee.

Chorus

Verse 4 Dear Savior when before Thy bar,

All tribes and tongues assembled are,

Among Thy chosen will I be,

At Thy right hand, complete in Thee.

Hallelujah, What a Savior

Verse 1 "Man of Sorrows!" what a name

For the Son of God who came

Ruined sinners to reclaim!

Hallelujah! what a Savior!

Verse 2 Bearing shame and scoffing rude,

In my place condemned He stood

Sealed my pardon with His blood:

Hallelujah, what a Savior!

Verse 3 Guilty, vile and helpless we,

Spotless Lamb of God was He;

Full atonement! Can it be?

Hallelujah, what a Savior!

Verse 4 Lifted up was He to die,

"It is finished!" was His cry;

Now in heav'n exalted high:

Hallelujah, what a Savior!

Verse 5 When He comes, our glorious King,

All His ransomed home to bring,

Then anew this song we'll sing:

Hallelujah, what a Savior!

Holy, Holy, Holy

Verse 1 Holy, holy, holy,

Lord God Almighty!

Early in the morning

Our song shall rise to Thee.

Holy, holy, holy!

Merciful and mighty!

God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!

All the saints adore Thee,

Casting down their golden crowns

Around the glassy sea.

Cherubim and seraphim

Falling down before Thee,

Which were and are and evermore shall be.

Tho' the darkness hide Thee,

Tho' the eye of sinful man

Thy glory may not see.

There is none beside Thee,

Perfect in pow'r, in love, in purity.

Lord God Almighty!

All Thy works shall praise Thy name

In earth, and sky, and sea.

Holy, holy, holy!

Merciful and mighty!

God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!

In Christ Alone

Verse 1 In Christ alone my hope is found,

He is my light, my strength, my song.

This Cornerstone, this solid ground,

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.

What heights of love, what depths of peace,

When fears are stilled, when striving cease!

My Comforter, my all in all,

here in the love of Christ I stand.

Verse 2 In Christ alone, who took on flesh,

fullness of God in helpless Babe.

This gift of love and righteousness

scorned by the ones He came to save.

‘Til on that cross as Jesus died

the wrath of God was satisfied;

For every sin on Him was laid.

Here in the death of Christ I live.

Verse 3 There in the ground His body lay,

Light of the world by darkness slain.

Then bursting forth in glorious day,

 up from the grave He rose again!

And as He stands in victory,

sin’s curse has lost its grip on me.

For I am His and He is mine,

 bought with the precious blood of Christ.

Verse 4 No guilt in life, no fear in death,

this is the power of Christ in me.

From life’s first cry to final breath,   

Jesus commands my destiny.

No power of hell, no scheme of man

can ever pluck me from His hand.

‘Til He returns or calls me home,

here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.

Here in the power of Christ, I’ll stand.

It Is Well

Verse 1 When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,

When sorrows like sea-billows roll—

Whatever my lot, Thou hast 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.

Verse 2 Tho Satan should buffet,

tho trials should come,

Let this blest assurance control,

That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,

And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

Verse 3 My sin—O the bliss of this glorious tho’t—

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!

Verse 4 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.

Turn Your Eyes

Verse 1 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

Verse 2 Turn your eyes to the hillside

Where justice and mercy embraced

There the Son of God gave His life for us

And our measureless debt was erased

Verse 3 Turn your eyes to the morning

And see Christ the Lion awake

What a glorious dawn, fear of death is gone

For we carry His life in our veins

Verse 4 Turn your eyes to the heavens

Our King will return for His own

Every knee will bow, every tongue will shout,

‘All glory to Jesus alone!’
