The Lord Reigns
(Chorus)
The Lord reigns, the Lord reigns,
The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice
Let the earth rejoice, let the earth rejoice
Let the people be glad that our God reigns.
Verse 1
A fire goes before Him, and burns up all His enemies
The hills melt like wax at the presence of the Lord,
At the presence of the Lord.
Verse 2
The heavens declare His righteousness, the people see His glory
For You, O Lord, are exalted over all the earth, over all the earth!
Father Make Us One
(Chorus)
Father make us one, Father make us one,
That the world may know Thou hast sent the Son.
Father make us one. (Repeat)
Behold, how pleasant and how good it is
For brethren to dwell in unity,
For there the Lord commands the blessing:
Life forever more.

Opening Hymn
Dance With Me
This is Holy time, we gather together to worship you,
And love one another.
And as we pray, and as we sing,
And as we dance, and as we dream
Lord, I beg of you just this one thing:
Won’t you dance with me?
Throughout the heavens and below the seas,
Up on the mountaintops, flow with the breeze,
Come carry me……Lord, won’t you dance with me.

I Want To Walk As A Child Of The Light
Verse 1
I want to walk as a child of the light
I want to follow Jesus
God set the stars to give light to the world
The star of my life is Jesus
(Chorus)
In Him there is no darkness at all
The night and the day are both alike
The Lamb is the light of the city of God
Shine in my heart Lord Jesus

I want to see the brightness of God
I want to look at Jesus
Clear Son of righteousness shine on my path
And show me the way to the Father
Verse 3
I'm looking for the coming of Christ
I want to be with Jesus
When we have run with patience the race
We shall know the joy of Jesus

All my days lie open to your gaze.
When I walk or lie down you go before me:
Ever the maker and keeper of my days.

2. You know my resting and my rising.
You discern my purpose from afar.
You are with me beyond my understanding:
In every moment of life or death, you are.
3. For you created me and shaped me,
Gave me life within my mother’s womb.
For the won - der of who I am, I praise you:
God of my present, my past and future, too.
4. Although I feel your hand upon me,
Still I search for shelter from your light.
There is no - where on earth I can escape you:
Even the darkness is radiant in your sight. (repeat verse 1)

Lord I Lift Your Name on High

I'm so glad You came to save us

To show the way
From the earth to the cross

From the cross to the grave
From the grave to the sky

Gathering Songs:
God Is Good All The Time
(Chorus)
God is good all the time
He put a song of praise
In this heart of mine
God is good all the time
Through the darkest night
His light will shine
God is good
God is good all the time
Verse 1
If you're walking through the valley
And there are shadows all around
Do not fear He will guide you
He will keep you safe and sound
'Cause He has promised to never leave you
Nor forsake you and His Word is true
Verse 2
We were sinners so unworthy
Still for us He chose to die
Filled us with His Holy Spirit
Now we can stand and testify
That His love is everlasting
And His mercies they will never end
(BRIDGE)
Though I may not understand
All the plans You have for me
My life is in Your hands
And through the eyes of faith
I can clearly see

Amazing Grace
1.A-mazing Grace, How sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me,
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
2.Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.
3.The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
4.Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come.
Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home.
5.When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise

Shout To The Lord
My Jesus my Savior
Lord there is none like You
All of my days I want to praise,
The wonders of Your mighty love
My comfort my shelter,
Tower of refuge and strength
Let every breath all that I am
Never cease to worship You
(Chorus)
Shout to the Lord,
All the earth let us sing,
Power and majesty
Praise to the King
Mountains bow down
And the seas will roar,
At the sound of Your name
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands
Forever I'll love You
Forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise
I have in You
Oh Lord, You're Beautiful
Oh Lord, You're beautiful;
Your face is all I seek,
For when your eyes are on this child,
Your grace abounds to me.
Oh Lord, please light the fire,
That once burned bright and clear.
Replace the lamp of my first love,
That burned with holy fear.
