O God, Our Help in Ages Past - November 28, 2010

Words by Isaac Watts; Music by William Croft

O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home.

Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defense is sure.

Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.

O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Be Thou our guide while life shall last,
And our eternal home.

O Worship the King - November 21, 2010

Words and Music by Robert Grant
Additional Lyrics by Chris Tomlin

O worship the King, all glorious above;
O gratefully sing His wonderful love;
Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise.

O tell of His might, O sing of His grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space.
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is His path on the wings of the storm.

You alone are the matchless King;
To You alone be all majesty.
Your glories and wonders, what tongue can recite?
You breathe in the air, You shine in the light.

O measureless might, ineffable love,
While angels delight to worship above;
Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend.

Awesome Is the Lord Most HIgh - November 14, 2010

Words and Music by Chris Tomlin

Great are You, Lord, mighty in strength
You are faithful; You will ever be
We will praise You all of our days
It's for Your glory we offer everything

Raise your hands all you nations
Shout to God all creation
How awesome is the Lord Most High


Where You send us, God, we will go
You're the answer we want the world to know

We will trust You when You call our name
Where You lead us we'll follow all the way

Raise your hands all you nations
Shout to God all creation
How awesome is the Lord Most High
We will praise You together
Both now and forever
How awesome is the Lord Most High

O Church Arise - November 7, 2010

Words and Music by Keith Getty and Stuart Townend

O Church arise and put your armor on
Hear the call of Christ, our Captain
For now the weak can say that they are strong
In the strength that God has given
With shield of faith and belt of truth
We'll stand against the devil's lies
An army bold whose battle-cry is Love
Reaching out to those in darkness

Our call to war to love the captive soul
But to rage against the captor
And with the sword that makes the wounded whole
We will fight with faith and valor
When faced with trials on every side
We know the outcome is secure
And Christ will have the prize for which he died
An inheritance of nations

Come see the cross where love and mercy meet
As the Son of God is stricken
Then see His foes lie crushed beneath His feet
For the Conqueror has risen
And as the stone is rolled away
And Christ emerges from the grave
This victory march continues till the day
Every eye and heart will see Him

So Spirit come put strength in every stride
Give grace for every hurdle
That we may run with faith to win the prize
Of a servant good and faithful
As saints of old still line the way
Retelling triumphs of His grace
We hear their calls and hunger for the day
When with Christ we stand in glory
