Flow from His throne
Unto His own

Magnify, come glorify

Majesty, worship His majesty
Jesus who died, now glorified
King of all kings

Hymn 569: In Christ Alone

Verse 1
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my all in all
Here in the love of Christ I stand

Verse 2
In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save

’Til on that cross, as Jesus died
The love of God was magnified
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live

Verse 3
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious day
Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ

Verse 4
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no human plan
Can ever pluck me from His hand
’Til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I stand

Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. Here a dinner was given in Jesus’ honor. Martha served, while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with Him. Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray Him, objected, “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages. ”He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it. “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have Me.”
John 12:1-8 NIV

Hymn: Seek First the Kingdom

Adapted from Matthew 6
Sanctuary Choir
Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added unto you.
So do not worry about tomorrow
for tomorrow will worry about itself.
For every day has enough worries of its own.

Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added unto you.
Do not worry about your life.
Do not worry about your body for who of you by worrying
can add a single hour to his life?

Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added unto you.
Seek first the Kingdom.
Seek first the Kingdom of God.

Hymn 49: As the Deer

Verse 1
As the deer pants for the water
So my soul longs after Thee
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship Thee

Chorus
You alone are my strength, my shield
To You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship Thee

Verse 2
You’re my friend, You are my brother
Even though You are a King
I love You more than any other
So much more than anything

Chorus
You alone are my strength, my shield
To You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship Thee

Verse 3
I want You more than gold or silver
Only You can satisfy
You alone are the real joy-giver
And the apple of my eye

Chorus
You alone are my strength, my shield
To You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship Thee

Hymn: Ave Verum Corpus

Sanctuary Choir

Ave verum corpus,
Natum de Maria Virgine,
vere passum, immolatum
in cruce pro homine
cuius latus perforatum
fluxit aqua et sanguine:
esto nobis praegustatum
in mortis examine.

Hail, true Body (of Christ),
Born of the Virgin Mary,
having truly suffered, sacrificed
on the cross for mankind,
from Whose pierced side
water and blood flowed:
Be to us a foretaste at death’s trial.

Hymn of Response 171: What Wondrous Love

What wondrous love is this
O my soul, Oh my soul!
What wondrous love is this
O my soul!

What wondrous love is this
That caused the Lord of bliss
To bear the dreadful curse
For my soul, for my soul
To bear the dreadful curse
For my soul

Verse 2
When I was sinking down
Sinking down, sinking down
When I was sinking down
Sinking down

When I was sinking down
Beneath God’s righteous frown
Christ laid aside His crown
for my soul, for my soul
Christ laid aside His crown
For my soul

Verse 3
To God and to the Lamb
I will sing, I will sing
To God and to the Lamb
I will sing

To God and to the Lamb
Who is the great “I Am”
While millions join the theme
I will sing, I will sing
While millions join the theme
I will sing

Verse 4
And when from death I’m free
I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on
And when from death I’m free
I’ll sing on

And when from death I’m free
I’ll sing and joyful be
And through eternity
I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on
And through eternity
I’ll sing on

Each time we meet with God, whether privately or corporately, at the end of that time God sends us or COMMISSIONS us to go “into the world” and share His love.

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,"
Matthew 28:19 NIV
