Gathering Instrumental: Steps Forward – by Andrew Camp

Praise the Father, praise the Son,

All creation sings your praise.
The Mystery of Faith – Words: Traditional english liturgy, Music by Scott Johnson and David Wilton
Christ has died, Christ has risen,
Christ will come again.
Emmanuel, Emmanuel
Christ will come again.
O Help My Unbelief – Words: Isaac Watts, Music: Justin Smith
How sad our state by nature is!
our sin, how deep it stains!
and Satan binds our captive minds
Fast in his slavish chains.
But there’s a voice of sov’reign grace,
sounds from the sacred word:
“O, ye despairing sinners come,
and trust upon the Lord.”
You Alone Can Rescue by Matt Redman and Jonas Myrin
Who, O Lord could save themselves
their own soul could heal?
Our shame was deeper than the sea.
Your grace is deeperer still.
You alone can rescue, You alone can save.
You alone can lift us from the grave.
You came down to find us, led us out of death.
To You alone be longs the highest praise.
On Jordan’s Stormy Banks – Words by Samuel Stennett (1787) and contemporary music by Christopher Miner.
On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan’s fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.
I am bound, I am bound,
I am bound for the Promised land.
Hallelujah! What A Savior – Words and Music: Phillip P. Bliss (1875), Additional Chorus: Leonard Cohen (based on the song Hallelujah)
Lifted up was He to die;
“It is finished!” was His cry;
Now in Heav’n exalted high.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!
How Deep the Father’s Love For Us by Stuart Townend, Arrangement: King’s Kaleidoscope
How deep the Father’s love for us,
how vast beyond all measure
that He should give His only Son
to make a wretch His treasure.
How great the pain of searing loss,
the Father turns His face away
as wounds which mar the chosen One
bring many sons to glory.
Jesus, All For Jesus by Robin Mark and Jennifer Atkinson
Jesus, all for Jesus,
All I am and have and ever hope to be.
All of my ambitions, hopes and plans
I surrender these into Your hands.
For it’s only in Your will that I am free.
