Benediction

 

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,

Tune my heart to sing thy grace;

Streams of mercy, never ceasing,

Call for songs of loudest praise.

Teach me some melodious sonnet,

Sung by flaming tongues above;

Praise His Name–I'm fixed upon it–

Name of God's redeeming love.

 

Hither to Thy love has blest me;

Thou hast bro’t me to this place;

And I know Thy hand will bring me

Safely home by Thy good grace.

Jesus sought me when a stranger,

Wandering from the fold of God;

He, to rescue me from danger,

Bought me with his precious blood.

 

O to grace how great a debtor

Daily I'm constrained to be!

Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,

Bind my wandering heart to Thee:

Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,

Prone to leave the God I love;

Here's my heart, O take and seal it;

Seal it for thy courts above.

 

O, that day when freed from sinning

I shall see Thy lovely face,

Full-arrayed in blood-washed linen,

How I'll sing Thy sovereign grace!

Come, my Lord, no longer tarry;

Bring Thy promises to pass.

For I know Thy pow'r will keep me

Till I'm home with Thee at last.

  

Only a Holy God

Who else commands all the hosts of heaven

Who else could make every king bow down 

Who else can whisper and darkness trembles

Only a Holy God

 

What other beauty demands such praises

What other splendor outshines the sun

What other majesty rules with justice

Only a Holy God

 

Chorus:

Come and behold Him

The One and the Only

Cry out, sing holy

Forever a Holy God

Come and worship the Holy God

 

What other glory consumes like fire

What other power can raise the dead

What other name remains undefeated

Only a Holy God

Chorus

 

Who else could rescue me from my failing

Who else would offer His only Son

Who else invites me to call Him Father

Only a Holy God

Only my Holy God

Chorus

 

Holy, Holy, Holy

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!

Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;

Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty!

God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!

   

Holy, holy, holy! all the saints adore Thee,

Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;  

Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,  

Which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.  

   

Holy, holy, holy! though the darkness hide Thee,  

Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see;  

Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee,  

Perfect in power, in love, and purity.  

   

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!  

All Thy works shall praise Thy Name in earth, and sky, and sea;  

Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty!  

God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!  

 

Whate’er My God Ordains Is Right

Whate’er my God ordains is right, 

His holy will abideth;

I will be still whate’er He does, 

And follow where He guideth.

He is my God, though dark my road;

He holds me that I shall not fall;

And so to Him I leave it all,

And so to Him I leave it all.

 

Whate’er my God ordains is right, 

He never will deceive me; 

He leads me by the proper path, 

I know He will not leave me.

I take, content, what He has sent; 

His hand can turn my griefs away; 

And patiently I wait His day,

And patiently I wait His day.

 

Whate’er my God ordains is right, 

Though now this cup in drinking

May bitter seem to my faint heart, 

I take it all, unshrinking. 

My God is true, each morn anew

Sweet comfort yet shall fill my heart;

And pain and sorrow shall depart,

And pain and sorrow shall depart.

 

Whate’er my God ordains is right, 

Here shall my stand be taken;

Though sorrow, need, or death be mine, 

Yet I am not forsaken.

My Father’s care is round me there; 

He holds me that I shall not fall;

And so to Him I leave it all,

And so to Him I leave it all.

 

There Is a Fountain

There is a fountain filled with blood

Drawn from Immanuel’s veins,

And sinners plunged beneath that flood

Lose all their guilty stains:

Lose all their guilty stains,

Lose all their guilty stains;

And sinners plunged beneath that flood

Lose all their guilty stains.

 

The dying thief rejoiced to see

That fountain in his day,

And there have I, though vile as he,

Washed all my sins away:

Washed all my sins away,

Washed all my sins away;

And there have I, though vile as he,

Washed all my sins away.

 

Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood

Shall never lose its pow’r,

Till all the ransomed Church of God

Be saved, to sin no more:

Be saved, to sin no more,

Be saved, to sin no more;

Till all the ransomed Church of God

Be saved to sin no more.

 

E’er since by faith I saw the stream

Thy flowing wounds supply,

Redeeming love has been my theme

And shall be till I die:

And shall be till I die,

And shall be till I die;

Redeeming love has been my theme,

And shall be till I die.

 

When this poor, lisping, stamm’ring tongue

Lies silent in the grave,

Then in a nobler, sweeter song

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save:

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save,

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save;

Then in a nobler, sweeter song

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save.
