Words and music by Elvina Hall
I hear the Savior say,
"Thy strength indeed is small.
Child of weakness, watch and pray;
Find in me thine all in all."
Jesus paid it all
All to Him I owe.
Sin had left a crimson stain;
He washed it white as snow.
Lord, now indeed I find
Thy power and Thine alone
Can change the leper's spots
And melt the heart of stone.
And when before the throne
I stand in Him complete,
"Jesus died my soul to save"
My lips shall still repeat.

How Deep the Father's Love for Us - July 18, 2010
Words and Music by Stuart Townend
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
Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life, I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything, no gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart: His wouneds have paid my ransom
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
Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life, I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything, no gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart: His wouneds have paid my ransom

What a Savior - July 11, 2010
Words and Music by Philip Bliss and Devon Kauflin
Man of Sorrows, what a name
For the Son of God who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim
Hallelujah
Bearing shame and scoffing rude
In my place condemned He stood
Sealed my pardon with His blood
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Savior, You showed Your love
Defeated our sin
Poured out Your blood
So we praise You, Lamb that was slain
We offer our lives to proclaim:
"What a Savior!"
Guilty, vile, and helpless we
Spotless Lamb of God was He
Full atonement, can it be?
Hallelujah
Lifted up was He to die
"It is finished" was His cry
Now in heav'n exalted high
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
When He comes, our glorious King
All His ransomed home to bring
Then anew this song we'll sing
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Man of Sorrows, what a name
For the Son of God who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim
Hallelujah

In my place condemned He stood
Sealed my pardon with His blood
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Defeated our sin
Poured out Your blood
So we praise You, Lamb that was slain
We offer our lives to proclaim:
"What a Savior!"
Guilty, vile, and helpless we
Spotless Lamb of God was He
Full atonement, can it be?
Hallelujah
Lifted up was He to die
"It is finished" was His cry
Now in heav'n exalted high
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
When He comes, our glorious King
All His ransomed home to bring
Then anew this song we'll sing
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
