Hope Has Come - November 27, 2011

Words and Music by Stephen Altrogge

Let us join with the angel voices; let us join their happy song.
All of heaven and earth rejoices for the Lamb of God has come.
He has come to rescue sinners, come to meet our desperate need;
He was born to bring forgiveness, born for Calvary.

Alleluia! Hope has come.
Alleluia! Christ has come.
We once were slaves in misery
‘Til You appeared and set us free.
Alleluia! Hope has come.

Let us lay our gifts before Him; let us magnify His Name.
With thankful hearts adore Him, for the Lord has come to save.
He has come to break sin’s power; He has come to set us free.
Hope was born that glorious hour—Christ, the mighty King.


Today's Songs:
Go, Tell It on the Mountain

Angels We Have Heard on High
Behold Our God w/O Come, Let Us Adore Him

Come, Ye Thankful People, Come - November 20, 2011

Words and Music by Henry Alford and George J. Elvey

Come, ye thankful people, come—raise the song of harvest-home;
All is safely gathered in ere the winter storms begin.
God, our Maker, doth provide for our wants to be supplied;
Come to God’s own temple, come—raise the song of harvest-home.

All the world is God’s own field, fruit unto His praise to yield;
Wheat and tares together sown, unto joy or sorrow grown.
First the blade and then the ear, then the full corn shall appear;
Lord of harvest, grant that we wholesome grain and pure may be.

For the Lord our God shall come and shall take His harvest home;
From His field shall in that day all offenses purge away;
Give His angels charge at last in the fire the tares to cast,
But the fruitful ears to store in His garner evermore.

Even so, Lord, quickly come to Thy final harvest-home;
Gather Thou Thy people in, free from sorrow, free from sin;
There, forever purified, in Thy presence to abide;
Come, with all Thine angels, come—raise the glorious harvest-home.

Today's Songs:
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty
Come, Ye Thankful People, Come
For the Beauty of the Earth
We Gather Together
How Great Is Your Faithfulness

How Great Is Your Faithfulness - November 13, 2011

Words and Music by Jonas Myrin and Matt Redman

Now unto the King who reigns over all and never changes or turns
Unfailing justice, unfading grace, whose promises remain
Yes, Your promises remain

The heavens ring, the saints all sing, “Great is Your faithfulness”
From age to age we will proclaim, “Great is Your faithfulness—
How great is Your faithfulness!”

Everything changes, but You stay the same
Your word and kingdom endure
We lean on the promise of all that You are
And trust forevermore, we will trust forevermore

From generation to generation, You never fail us, O God
Yesterday and today and tomorrow, until the day You return

Today's Songs:

Happy Day
How Great Is Your Faithfulness
Unchanging
In Christ Alone
Glorious Day

Be Thou My Vision - November 6, 2011

Words and Music by Mary E. Byrne

Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son,
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance, now and always;
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

High King of heaven, my victory won,
May I reach heaven’s joys, bright heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Today's Songs:

O, For a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Your Redeeming Love
Be Thou My Vision
Give Me Jesus
Great Is Thy Faithfulness
