Benediction
The Solid Rock
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly trust in Jesus’ Name.
Refrain
On Christ, the solid Rock I stand—
All other ground is sinking sand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In ev’ry high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil.
His oath, His covenant, His blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
O may I then in Him be found,
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.
Lord, from Sorrows Deep I Call (Psalm 42)
Verse 1
Lord, from sorrows deep I call,
When my hope is shaken;
Torn and ruined from the fall,
Hear my desperation!
For so long I've pled in prayer,
"God, come to my rescue!"
Even so, the thorn remains;
Still my heart will praise You.
Verse 2
Storms within my troubled soul,
Questions without answers;
On my faith these billows roll—
God, be now my shelter!
Why are you cast down, my soul?
Hope in Him who saves you!
When the fires have all grown cold,
Cause this heart to praise You.
Verse 3
Should my life be torn from me—
Every worldly pleasure—
When all I possess is grief,
God, be then my treasure!
Be my vision in the night,
Be my hope and refuge!
Till my faith is turned to sight,
Lord, my heart will praise You!
Chorus
Oh, my soul, put your hope in God,
My Help, my Rock, I will praise Him!
Sing, oh sing, through the raging storm,
You're still my God, my Salvation!
Christ Is Mine Forevermore
Mine are days that God has numbered—
I was made to walk with Him—
Yet I look for worldly treasure
And forsake the King of kings.
But mine is hope in my Redeemer,
Though I fall, His love is sure,
For Christ has paid for every failing;
I am His forevermore.
Mine are tears in times of sorrow—
Darkness not yet understood.
Through the valley I must travel,
Where I see no earthly good.
But mine is peace that flows from heaven
And the strength in times of need.
I know my pain will not be wasted:
Christ completes his work in me.
Mine are days here as a stranger—
Pilgrim on a narrow way.
One with Christ, I will encounter
Harm and hatred for His name.
But mine is armor for this battle—
Strong enough to last the war.
And He has said He will deliver
Safely to the golden shore.
And mine are keys to Zion city
Where, beside the King I walk;
For there my heart has found its treasure:
Christ is mine forevermore.
Come rejoice now, O my soul,
For His love is my reward!
Fear is gone and hope is sure;
Christ is mine forevermore!
Come rejoice now, O my soul,
For His love is my reward!
Fear is gone and hope is sure;
Christ is mine forevermore!
Come rejoice now, O my soul,
For His love is my reward!
Fear is gone and hope is sure;
Christ is mine forevermore!
Come rejoice now, O my soul,
For His love is my reward!
Fear is gone and hope is sure;
Christ is mine forevermore!
And mine are keys to Zion city
Where, beside the King I walk;
For there my heart has found its treasure:
Christ is mine forevermore;
Christ is mine forevermore;
Christ is mine forevermore!
Show Us Christ
Prepare our hearts, O God
Help us to receive
Break the hard and stony ground
Help our unbelief
Plant Your Word down deep in us
Cause it to bear fruit
Open up our ears to hear
Lead us in Your truth.
Chorus:
Show us Christ, show us Christ;
O God, reveal Your glory
Through the preaching of Your Word,
Until every heart confesses Christ is Lord.
Your Word is living light
Upon our darkened eyes;
Guards us through temptations
Makes the simple wise.
Your Word is food for famished ones,
Freedom for the slave;
Riches for the needy soul
Come speak to us today.
Bridge
Where else can we go, Lord,
Where else can we go?
You have the words of eternal life.
Christ, Our Hope in Life and Death
What is our hope in life and death?
Christ alone, Christ alone.
What is our only confidence?
That our souls to Him belong.
Who holds our days within His hand?
What comes, apart from His command?
And what will keep us to the end?
The love of Christ, in which we stand.
Chorus:
O sing hallelujah!
Our hope springs eternal;
O sing hallelujah!
Now and ever we confess
Christ our hope in life and death.
What truth can calm the troubled soul?
God is good, God is good.
Where is His grace and goodness known?
In our great Redeemer’s blood.
Who holds our faith when fears arise?
Who stands above the stormy trial?
Who sends the waves that bring us nigh
Unto the shore, the rock of Christ?
Unto the grave, what shall we sing?
“Christ, He lives; Christ, He lives!”
And what reward will heaven bring?
Everlasting life with Him.
There we will rise to meet the Lord,
Then sin and death will be destroyed,
And we will feast in endless joy,
When Christ is ours forevermore.
