Hymn

4 of 42

O Lord my God

When I in awesome wonder�Consider all the worlds

Thy hands have made

5 of 42

I see the stars

I hear the rolling thunder�Thy power throughout

The universe displayed

6 of 42

Then sings my soul

My Savior God to thee�How great thou art

How great thou art�(2x)

7 of 42

And when I think

That God his Son not sparing�Sent him to die

I scarce can take it in

8 of 42

That on the cross

My burden gladly bearing

He bled and died

To take away my sin

9 of 42

Then sings my soul

My Savior God to thee�How great thou art

How great thou art�(2x)

10 of 42

When Christ shall come

With shout of acclamation�And take me home

What joy shall fill my heart

11 of 42

Then I shall bow

In humble adoration�And there proclaim

My God how great thou art

12 of 42

Then sings my soul

My Savior God to thee�How great thou art

How great thou art�(2x)

How deep the Father’s love for us�How vast beyond all measure�That He should give His only Son�To make a wretch His treasure

21 of 42

How great the pain of searing loss�The Father turns His face away�As wounds which mar

the Chosen One�Bring many sons to glory

22 of 42

Behold the Man upon a cross�My sin upon His shoulders�Ashamed I hear my mocking voice�Call out among the scoffers

23 of 42

It was my sin that held Him there�Until it was accomplished�His dying breath has brought me

life�I know that it is finished

24 of 42

I will not boast in anything�No gifts no pow’r no wisdom�But I will boast in Jesus Christ�His death and resurrection

25 of 42

Why should I gain from His reward�I cannot give an answer�But this I know with all my heart�His wounds have paid my ransom

Religion That Changes, Blesses, Frees

James 1:22–27

29 of 42

James 1:22–27

22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.

30 of 42

James 1:22–27

25 But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.

31 of 42

James 1:22–27

26 Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

Come Thou Fount Of Every Blessing

34 of 42

Come Thou Fount of every blessing�Tune my heart to sing Thy grace

Streams of mercy never ceasing�Call for songs of loudest praise

35 of 42

Teach me some melodious sonnet�Sung by flaming tongues above�Praise the mount I’m fixed upon it�Mount of Thy unchanging love

36 of 42

Here I raise my Ebenezer�Here by Thy great help I’ve come�And I hope by Thy good pleasure�Safely to arrive at home

37 of 42

Jesus sought me when a stranger�Wandering from the fold of God�He to rescue me from danger�Interposed His precious blood

38 of 42

O to grace how great a debtor�Daily I’m constrained to be�Let that grace now like a fetter�Bind my wandering heart to Thee

39 of 42

Prone to wander Lord I feel it�Prone to leave the God I love�Here’s my heart Lord

Take and seal it�Seal it for Thy courts above
