4 1 SUNDAY, JANUARY 7, 2018 THE SOLID ROCK My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness. I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus' name. 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. On Christ the solid rock I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand. 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. On Christ the solid rock I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand. 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. On Christ the solid rock I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand. On Christ the solid rock I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand.

5 2 CLING TO CHRIST Father, I can come to You and boast of deeds I ve done; In my pride I strive to earn the favor Christ has won. He alone pleads my acceptance, all my works aside; So I come with empty hands and I cling to Christ. Father, I can go astray and battle needless fears. Voices tell me I m condemned and that I can t draw near, but Your Spirit calls me homeward with Your words of life. Jesus bore my every sin, so I cling to Christ. It s more than I can do to keep my hold on You, but all my hope and peace is that You cling to me. It s more than I can do to keep my hold on You, but all my hope and peace is that You cling to me. Father, all my earthly aims in time will turn to dust. Let me learn that loss is gain for those who know Your love. All the treasures of this world will never satisfy; You alone are endless joy, so I cling to Christ. You alone are endless joy, so I cling to Christ. 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 shall 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 pow'r, 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!

6 3 FOR THE CAUSE For the cause of Christ the King, we give our lives, an offering til all the earth resounds with ceaseless praise to the Son. For the cause of Christ we go with joy to reap, with faith to sow, as many see and many put their trust in the Son. Christ we proclaim, the Name above every name; For all creation, ev ry nation, God s salvation through the Son! For the King once lifted high to cries of rage, of crucify! Endured the cross as every sin was laid on the Son. To the King who conquered death to free the poor and the oppressed, For lasting peace, for life and liberty in the Son. Christ we proclaim, the Name above every name; For all creation, ev ry nation, God s salvation through the Son! Let it be my life s refrain: To live is Christ, to die is gain; Deny myself, take up my cross and follow the Son. Christ we proclaim, the Name above every name; For all creation, ev ry nation, God s salvation through the Son! Christ we proclaim, the Name above every name; For all creation, ev ry nation, God s salvation through the Son!

7 4 HALLELUJAH TO THE KING It's rising from the ground: A broken world cries out for healing mercy to deliver us. Then flowing from above, such glory wrapped in love; The King of Heaven comes to rescue us. Oh Hallelujah to the Risen King! We lift our voices as an offering. With every fiber, every breath we sing, Oh Hallelujah to the King! The hands that healed the blind, that raised the dead to life, crushed by the very ones He came to save, Rejected, crucified; Sinners now justified. The empty tomb declares the conquered grave. Oh Hallelujah to the Risen King! We lift our voices as an offering. With every fiber, every breath we sing, Oh Hallelujah to the King! (Bridge) Hallelujah, He's alive! Hope of glory, Jesus Christ. Hallelujah, He's alive! Hope of glory, Jesus Christ. Oh Hallelujah to the Risen King! We lift our voices as an offering. With every fiber, every breath we sing, Oh Hallelujah to the King! Oh Hallelujah to the King! Oh Hallelujah to the King!

8 5 HOW GREAT THOU ART O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder consider all the worlds Thy hands have made, I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy pow'r thro'out the universe displayed. And when I think that God, His Son not sparing, sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in; That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing, He bled and died to take away my sin. When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation and take me home, what joy shall fill my heart! Then I shall bow in humble adoration, and there proclaim, my God, how great Thou art.

9 6 HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD How great is our God; Sing with me, how great is our God, and all will see how great, how great is our God. Age to age He stands, and time is in His hands; Beginning and the end, beginning and the end. The Godhead, three in one: Father, Spirit, Son; the Lion and the Lamb, the lion and the Lamb. How great is our God; Sing with me, how great is our God, and all will see how great, how great is our God. How great is our God. INVITATION GRACE GREATER THAN OUR SIN Marvelous grace of our loving Lord, grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt! Yonder on Calvary s mount outpoured, there where the blood of the Lamb was spilt. Grace, grace, God's grace; Grace that will pardon and cleanse within. Grace, grace, God's grace; Grace that is greater than all our sin. Sin and despair, like the sea waves cold, threaten the soul with infinite loss; Grace that is greater, yes, grace untold, points to the refuge, the mighty cross. Grace, grace, God's grace; Grace that will pardon and cleanse within. Grace, grace, God's grace; Grace that is greater than all our sin. Dark is the stain that we cannot hide; What can avail to wash it away? Look! there is flowing a crimson tide; Whiter than snow you may be today. Grace, grace, God's grace; Grace that will pardon and cleanse within. Grace, grace, God's grace; Grace that is greater than all our sin. Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace, freely bestowed on all who believe; You that are longing to see His face, will you this moment His grace receive? Grace, grace, God's grace; Grace that will pardon and cleanse within. Grace, grace, God's grace; Grace that is greater than all our sin.

10 7 OFFERTORY WHEN TRIALS COME When trials come, no longer fear, for in the pain our God draws near to fire a faith worth more than gold; And there His faithfulness is told And there His faithfulness is told Within the night I know Your peace; The breath of God brings strength to me. And new each morning, mercies flow, As treasures of the darkness grow As treasures of the darkness grow I turn to wisdom not my own, for every battle You have known; My confidence will rest in You. Your love endures, Your ways are good Your love endures, Your ways are good When I am weary with the cost, I see the triumph of the cross; So in its shadow I shall run Till You complete the work begun Till You complete the work begun One day all things will be made new, I ll see the hope You called me to, and in your kingdom paved with gold, I ll praise Your faithfulness of old I ll praise Your faithfulness of old! BENEDICTION FOR THE CAUSE Christ we proclaim, the Name above every name; For all creation, ev ry nation, God s salvation through the Son!
