As for Me and My House...

 
As for Me and My House 
 Keith and Kristyn Getty, Cochren & Co.

Vs 1
Oh, choose you this day whom you will serve
The kingdom of heaven or the powers of earth
Has He not spoken? Have you not heard?
There is but one true God

Vs 2
The God of our fathers set us free
His Son paid the price for our covenant peace
Through generations His mercy speaks
We trust in one true God

Chorus
As for me and my house, we will serve, serve the Lord
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord our God

Vs 3
This house is the Lord’s and all within
May we be pleasing and holy to Him
Joined by His Spirit His people sing
Great is the one true God
Oh, great Is the living God

Chorus
As for me and my house, we will serve, serve the Lord
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord our God

Bridge
Oh, praise the Father, praise the Son
Praise the Spirit now in us
Let every heart and every tongue
Praise the one true God
(repeat)

Chorus
As for me and my house, we will serve, serve the Lord
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord our God
(repeat)

We think that Paradise and Calvary...

We think that Paradise and Calvary,
         Christ's cross, and Adam's tree, stood in one place;
Look, Lord, and find both Adams met in me;
         As the first Adam's sweat surrounds my face,
         May the last Adam's blood my soul embrace.
   -John Donne

Prayer is the most important thing you do...

Begin to realize more and more that prayer is the most important thing you do; and that you can use your time to no better advantage than to pray whenever you have an opportunity to do so, either alone or with others, while at work, while at rest, or while walking down the street. Anywhere!   ...O. Hallesby

Take Up Your Cross, The Saviour Said...

 
 Take Up Your Cross, The Saviour Said

1 Take up your cross, the Saviour said,
if you would my disciple be;
Deny yourself, the world forsake,
and humbly follow after me.

2 Take up your cross; be not ashamed!
Let not disgrace your spirit fill; 
For God himself endured to die
upon a cross on Calvary's hill.

3 Take up your cross, which gives you strength,
which makes your trembling spirit brave:
'Twill guide you to a better home
and lead to vict'ry o'er the grave.

4 Take up your cross, and follow Christ,
nor think till death to lay it down;
For only they who bear the cross
may hope to wear the glorious crown.

Hear the Hallelujahs Roar

 
 Hear the Hallelujahs Roar 
CityAlight

V1
The whole earth it is longing
And waiting for the dawn
When we will see Christ come again
And worship Him as Lord

V2
The night will fade behind us
We’ll walk in endless days
Beside our God who dwells with us
As glory fills our gaze

CHORUS
A song of praise is rising
From every tribe and tongue
O hear the hallelujahs roar
To Christ the worthy one

V3
No guilt shall hold us fearful
Our tears will be no more
We’ll run and not grow weary then
Our strength will be restored

CHORUS
A song of praise is rising
From every tribe and tongue
O hear the hallelujahs roar
To Christ the worthy one

V4
But still, we will remember
The cross that He embraced
His blood that made us worthy heirs
Our great redeemers grace

V5
No captive held in slavery
No hunger no more strife
And death has lost its fatal sting
For all we’ll know is life

CHORUS
A song of praise is rising
From every tribe and tongue
O hear the hallelujahs roar
To Christ the worthy one
