Songs and Scenes is a weekly blog review of songs, readings and prayers featured in The Crossing’s Sunday services. This week’s service was planned and lead by Andrew Camp. Our good friend, Scott Myers, provided photos to offer a glimpse into Sunday morning life at The Crossing. You’ll also find links in the song titles that will allow you to purchase recorded versions of the songs where available.
Call to Worship: Psalm 100:1
Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
One Redeemer by David A. Cover, Christine Cover and Patrick K. Miller
From start to end,
You are the “Amen!”
to Your promises,
Jesus, my soul’s Savior,
the great story’s One Redeemer.
How Great Thou Art by Stuart K. Hine, Arrangement: Page CXVI
And when I think that God, His Son not sparing,
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.
Then sings my soul to my Savior, God.
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
Call to Confession: Hebrews 4:14, 16
Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven,[a] Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.
Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
Alas! And Did My Savior Bleed – Words: Isaac Watts (1707), Music: Martyrdom, Hugh Wilson, (1800), Arrangement by Andrew Camp
Alas! and did my Savior bleed
and did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
for such a wretch such as I?
Assurance of Forgiveness: Revelation 1:5-6
To him who loves us and freed us from our sins by his blood and made us a kingdom…
to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Gloria by Chad Gardner
O taste and see that the Lord is good;
all you people, all you saints
all you children of the king.
Gloria!, Gloria!, Gloria!, Gloria!
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.
