It Is A Thing Most Wonderful

Verse 1

It is a thing most wonderful
Almost too wonderful to be
That God's own Son should come from heaven
And die to save a child like me

Verse 2

And yet I know that it is true
He chose a poor and humble lot
And wept and toiled and mourned and died
For love of those who loved Him not

Verse 3

But even could I see Him die
I could but see a little part
Of that great love which like a fire
Is always burning in His heart

Verse 4

It is most wonderful to know
His love for me so free and sure
But 'tis more wonderful to see
My love for Him so faint and poor

Verse 5

And yet I want to love Thee Lord
O light the flame within my heart
And I will love Thee more and more
Until I see Thee as Thou art

Living Hope

Verse 1

How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation I turned to heaven
And spoke Your name into the night
Then through the darkness Your loving-kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished the end is written
Jesus Christ my living hope

Verse 2

Who could imagine so great a mercy
What heart could fathom such boundless grace
The God of ages stepped down from glory
To wear my sin and bear my shame
The cross has spoken I am forgiven
The King of kings calls me His own
Beautiful Saviour I’m Yours forever
Jesus Christ my living hope

Chorus

Hallelujah praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ my living hope

Verse 3

Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence the Roaring Lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
(REPEAT)
Jesus Yours is the victory.

My God How Wonderful Thou Art

Verse 1

My God how wonderful Thou art
Thy majesty how bright
How beautiful Thy mercy-seat
In depths of burning light

Verse 2

How dread are Thine eternal years
O everlasting Lord
By prostrate spirits day and night
Incessantly adored

Verse 3

How wonderful how beautiful
The sight of Thee must be
Thine endless wisdom boundless power
And awesome purity

Verse 4

O how I fear Thee living God
With deepest tenderest fears
And worship Thee with trembling hope
And penitential tears

Verse 5

Yet I may love Thee too O Lord
Almighty as Thou art
For Thou hast stooped to ask of me
The love of my poor heart

Verse 6

No earthly father loves like Thee
No mother e'er so mild
Bears and forebears as Thou hast done
With me Thy sinful child

Verse 7

Father of Jesus love's reward
What rapture will it be
Prostrate before Thy throne to lie
And gaze and gaze on Thee

Hebrews 5:5-10

⁵So Christ also did not take upon himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him,

⁶And he says in another place,

⁷During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. ⁸Although he was a Son, he learned obedience from what he suffered ⁹and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him ¹⁰and was designated by God to be high priest in the order of Melchizedek.

NIV

John 12:20-33

²⁰Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the festival. ²¹They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. “Sir,” they said, “we would like to see Jesus.” ²²Philip went to tell Andrew; Andrew and Philip in turn told Jesus.

²³Jesus replied, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. ²⁴Very truly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. ²⁵Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life. ²⁶Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.

²⁷“Now my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour’? No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. ²⁸Father, glorify your name!”

Then a voice came from heaven, “I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.” ²⁹The crowd that was there and heard it said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him.

³⁰Jesus said, “This voice was for your benefit, not mine. ³¹Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out. ³²And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.” ³³He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die.

Truth I'm Standing On

Verse 1

Scared
Oh I thought I knew scared
But I’m so filled with fear that I can barely move

Verse 2

Doubt
I’ve had my share of doubts
But never more than right now
I’m wondering where are you

Pre-Chorus

Here on the edge of fall apart
Somehow Your promises
Find my troubled heart

Chorus

This is the truth I’m standing on
Even when all my strength is gone
You are faithful forever and
I know you’ll never let me fall
Right now I’m choosing to believe
That someday soon I’ll look back and see
All the pain had a purpose
Your plan was perfect all along
This is the truth I’m standing on

Verse 3

Good I believe you’re still good
Even when life’s not good
I’m clinging to this hope

Pre-Chorus

That the God who parts the sea
Promises that he will make a way for me

Bridge

You’re my rock my shield my firm foundation
I know I will not be shaken
You remind me where my help comes from

Hark the Herald Angels Sing

Verse 1

Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled
Joyful all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With th'angelic hosts proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King

Verse 2

Christ by highest heav'n adored
Christ the everlasting Lord
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of the Virgin's womb
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail th'incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with men to dwell
Jesus our Emmanuel
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King

Verse 3

Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace
Hail the Sun of Righteousness
Light and life to all He brings
Ris'n with healing in His wings
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
