Creed 05:05
I believe in Jesus Christ, the only Son of God I believe He lived and died and that He rose again I believe and trust in Him He ascended into heaven, Christ our living Head Will one day come again, to judge the living and the dead I believe and trust in Him Chorus: I will trust in my Redeemer Sing of His love that lasts for ever Know His full and sure salvation I will trust in Him Though the world falls around me I rest and know that He has found me Christ the rock is my foundation I will trust in Him I believe in God the Father, creator of us all I believe He loves creation, and rescues from the fall I believe and trust in Him I believe He sends his Spirit, upon His church today Dwells in our communion, and hears us when we pray I believe and trust in Him

1 John 1 If we say we know the Father And walk in dark, we have no truth If we walk in the light We walk in love, His blood makes right If we say we have no sin We deceive ourselves, and don't know truth If we confess our sins He is faithful and just, to forgive and cleanse Chorus 1: He is light He is light The cross of Christ Makes us right So we turn to Him In brokenness and humility The blood of His Son Cleanses us, and sets us free Chorus 2: He is light He is light The cross of Christ Gives us life

Words: Edith G. Cherry, 1895. Music: Finlandia, Jean Sibelius, 1899 We rest on Thee, our Shield and our Defender! We go not forth alone against the foe; Strong in Thy strength, safe in Thy keeping tender, We rest on Thee, and in Thy Name we go. Strong in Thy strength, safe in Thy keeping tender, We rest on Thee, and in Thy Name we go. Yes, in Thy Name, O Captain of salvation! In Thy dear Name, all other names above; Jesus our Righteousness, our sure Foundation, Our Prince of glory and our King of love. Jesus our Righteousness, our sure Foundation, Our Prince of glory and our King of love. We rest on Thee, our Shield and our Defender! Thine is the battle, Thine shall be the praise; When passing through the gates of pearly splendour, Victors, we rest with Thee, through endless days. When passing through the gates of pearly splendour, Victors, we rest with Thee, through endless days.

Sermon 05:44
Sermon on the mount (Matthew 5) Seeing the crowds He went up on the mountain And when He sat down All His disciples came to Him And he opened his mouth Opened his mouth And taught them Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven Blessed are those who mourn, for comfort shall be given Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the world Those who hunger and thirst, for they shall be filled Rejoice and be glad, for great is your reward in heaven Seeing the crowds He went up on the mountain And when He sat down All His disciples came to Him And he opened his mouth Opened his mouth And taught them Blessed are the merciful, for mercy they will receive. Blessed are the pure in heart, for God they shall see. Those who make peace, for they shall be called sons and heirs And the persecuted, for the kingdom is theirs. Rejoice and be glad, for great is your reward in heaven

Words: Samuel Crossman, 1664 original music by John N. Ireland (1918) My song is love unknown, My Saviour’s love to me; Love to the loveless shown, That they might lovely be. O who am I, that for my sake My Lord should take frail flesh, and die? He came from His blest throne Salvation to bestow; But men made strange, and none The longed-for Christ would know: But oh, my Friend, my Friend indeed, Who at my need His life did spend. Sometimes they strew His way, And His sweet praises sing; Resounding all the day Hosannas to their King: Then “Crucify!“ is all their breath, And for His death they thirst and cry. They rise and needs will have My dear Lord made away; A murderer they save, The Prince of life they slay. Yet cheerful He to suffering goes, That He His foes from thence might free. In life, no house, no home My Lord on earth might have; In death, no friendly tomb, But what a stranger gave. What may I say? Heav’n was His home; But mine the tomb wherein He lay. Here might I stay and sing, No story so divine; Never was love, dear King, Never was grief like Thine. This is my Friend, in whose sweet praise I all my days could gladly spend

Peace 03:38
Numbers 6:23-37, Philippians 4:6-7 The Lord be gracious to you And bless you and keep you The Lord be gracious to you And keep you in His peace It guards your heart And guards your mind It passes all understanding The peace of God Will calm the storm And gives us joy never ending The Lord be gracious to you And keep you in His peace The Lord lift up the light Of his face upon you The Lord lift up His light And shine upon your life It guards your heart And guards your mind It passes all understanding The peace of God Will calm the storm And gives us joy never ending The Lord be gracious to you And keep you in His peace

Matthew 6 Our Father Who is in heaven Hallowed be Your name Hallowed be Your name Your kingdom come Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven Give us this day our daily bread And forgive us all our debts As we have also forgiven our debtors And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil, from evil Our Father in heaven Hallowed be Your name Hallowed be Your name

1 John 3,4 Also: 1 Cor 3:16, Rom 8:9, Eph 2:22 We are God's temple God's Spirit dwells within us A tabernacle We're being built together Chorus If we abide then We are His children If we remain in His commands Not in the flesh as The Spirit dwells in us This is divine communion If we keep on sinning We've neither seen Him nor known Him But we're born of heaven And heaven dwells within us (Chorus) Bridge: We are being built together Into the dwelling place of God
11.
Amen 05:22
Revelation 21+22:20 Heaven and earth will pass away soon The city of God will descend Just like a bride is adorned for her groom The people of God will resplend Chorus: How soon, how soon will You Come to the earth and renew? How soon, how soon will You Come back and make all things new? No sun or moon for the Lamb is the lamp And the glory of God is its light Nations will enter, with honour encamp All in the Lamb's book of life (Chorus) Amen, come Lord Jesus!
12.
Benediction 01:25
Hebrews 13:20-21 Now may the God of peace Who brought from the dead our Lord Jesus, The Shepherd of the sheep, By the blood of the eternal covenant, Equip you with everything good That you may do His will, Working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, Through Jesus Christ, To whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

about

I appeal to you therefore, brethren, and beg of you in view of [all] the mercies of God, to make a decisive dedication of your bodies [presenting all your members and faculties] as a living sacrifice, holy (devoted, consecrated) and well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable (rational, intelligent) service and spiritual worship. [Romans 12:1-2, Amplified]

released September 7, 2013

The album and its concept came about from the first song, Creed, which was inspired by Anastasia Laurence's baptism as her parents repeated 'I believe and trust in Him'. We also have this order of service: to love God and worship him in our consecrated lives (our reasonable service). Hope you find these songs encouraging in your own life's journey...
