My soul waits (Psalm 62)
04:08

|

|
My soul waits for God alone
Waits in silence for salvation
He's my fortress and my home
I will not be shaken
Chorus:
For God alone
O my soul
Wait in the silence
For my hope
Is from the Lord
I will not be shaken
I will not be shaken
On God rests my future glory
On Him rests my sure salvation
He's my mighty rock and refuge
I will not be shaken
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Once God has spoken
Twice I have heard
Power belongs to Him
And steadfast love
My soul waits for God alone
Waits in silence for salvation
He's my fortress and my home
I will not be shaken

God's righteousness
Has been made known
Apart from the works of the law
The pure righteousness
Through faith in Christ
For all who believe in Him
Pre-Chorus:
For all have sinned
And fall short of the glory of God
And justified by His grace
His grace as a gift
Chorus:
Redemption is ours in Christ
God gave an atoning sacrifice
Righteous, divine
To show at the present time
He's just and He justifies
Then how can we boast?
Salvation is ours
Apart from the works of the law
It's only through faith
That we're justified
Upholding the law in our lives
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
(Pre-Chorus)
Outro:
He is just and He justifies...

2 Corinthians 4:16-18
1 Corinthians 13:12
Though outwardly I waste away
Inwardly I'm renewed each day
Chorus:
One day
I'll see Your face
One day
I'll be with You
One day
Though I know in part
One day
I'll know in full
This light affliction prepares the way
For eternal glory on that day
(Chorus)

Song of confession
02:04
|
|
||
|
From the Book of Common Prayer
Almighty God, our heavenly Father,
We've sinned against you,
Against each other
In thought and word and deed,
Through our negligence,
Through our weakness,
Through our own fault.
We are truly, truly sorry
And repent of all our sins.
For the sake of Your Son Jesus,
Who died for us,
Forgive us all that is past
And grant that we may serve you
In newness of life
To the glory
To the glory of your name.
Amen. Amen.

If there's encouragement in Christ
Any comfort from love
Sharing in the Spirit
Affection and sympathy
Make my joy complete
Make my joy complete
Being of the same mind
With the same love
Being in full accord
And of one mind
Not out of conceit
Make my joy complete
Chorus:
Have the same mind
Have the same mind as Christ Jesus
In humility
Consider others more
Not only your own interests
But place others' before
Make my joy complete
Make my joy complete
(Chorus)
Though in form of God
Did not grasp equality
Made himself as nothing
Taking a servant's form
In man's likeness born
Being found in human form
Humbled himself to death
Even death on a cross
Highly exalted
Bestowed on him the name
Above every name
Highly exalted
Bestowed on him the name
Above every name
So that every knee should bow
In heaven, on the earth
And under the earth
And every tongue confess:
Jesus Christ is Lord
To the glory of God
Jesus Christ is Lord
To the glory of God

A ransom for many
02:35
|
|
||
|
Christ has died and Christ is risen
He is our Saviour
Death is conquered, raised us with Him
He is our Saviour
In His name we've been forgiven
He is our Saviour
Took our place and took all our sin
He is our Saviour
Chorus
For God gave His only son
For the world, for everyone
Jesus Christ gave His life
As a ransom for many
Christ's redeeming work is done
He is our Saviour
All our debt is paid and gone
He is our Saviour
He is our Saviour
Chorus 2:
For God gave His only son
For the world, for everyone
Jesus Christ gave His life
As a ransom for many
Brought us to His glorious light
Bought us through His glorious life
Jesus Christ paid the price
As a ransom for many

I will sing of my Redeemer,
And His wondrous love to me;
On the cruel cross He suffered,
From the curse to set me free.
I will tell the wondrous story,
How my lost estate to save,
In His boundless love and mercy,
He the ransom freely gave.
Chorus:
Sing, oh, sing, of my Redeemer,
With His blood, He purchased me;
On the cross, He sealed my pardon,
Paid the debt, and made me free.
I will sing of my Redeemer,
And His wondrous love to me;
I will praise my dear Redeemer,
His triumphant pow’r I’ll tell,
How the victory He giveth
Over sin, and death, and hell.
He from death to life hath brought me,
Son of God with Him to be.
I will sing of my Redeemer,
And His heavenly love to me;
(Chorus)

8. |

|
We were separate from Christ
Alienated from Israel
Strangers to His grace
But He is our peace
He is our peace
He is peace
Having no hope
Without God at all
Now in Christ brought near
He is our peace
He is peace
He is peace
For He himself is our peace
And has made us both one
Broken down in His flesh
The wall of hostility
Abolished the law of commands
Creates in himself one new man
He is our peace
Not strangers and aliens
But fellow citizens
With saints and members of Him
He is our peace
Christ is the cornerstone
In whom the structure grows
Into a holy temple in the Lord
In Him we're being built
Together into a dwelling place
For God by the Spirit
He is our peace
