STANDING (IF ABLE) We praise God 10,000 Reasons Text and music: Matt Redman and Jonas Myrin Thankyou Music REFRAIN Bless the Lord, O my soul; O my soul, worship his holy name. Sing like never before, O my soul. I'll worship your holy name. The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning. It's Xme to sing your song again. Whatever may pass, and whatever lies before me let me be singing when the evening comes. REFRAIN You're rich in love, and you're slow to anger. Your name is great, and your heart is kind. For all your goodness I will keep on singing, ten thousand reasons for my heart to find. REFRAIN And on that day when my strength is failing, the end draws near and my Xme has come. SXll my soul will sing your praise unending, ten thousand years and then forevermore. REFRAIN (2x) page 3

6 God instructs us in scripture reading 1 Corinthians 15:20-28, But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firsgruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrecxon of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ the firsgruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. 24 Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father aeer destroying every rule and every authority and power. 25 For he must reign unxl he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death. 27 For God has put all things in subjecxon under his feet. But when it says, all things are put in subjecxon, it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjecxon under him. 28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjecxon under him, that God may be all in all. 58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain. God instructs us in preaching Sermon notes New Creation Rev. Eric Stiller page 5

7 STANDING (IF ABLE) We praise God In Christ Alone Text and tune: Keith Getty and Stuart Townend Kingsway Thankyou Music 1. In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my light, my strength, my song. This cornerstone, this solid ground, firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love, what depths of peace, when fears are sxlled, when strivings cease! My comforter, my all in all here in the love of Christ I stand. 2. In Christ alone, who took on flesh, fullness of God in helpless babe, This gie of love and righteousness, scorned by the ones he came to save. Till on that cross as Jesus died, the wrath of God was saxsfied, for ev'ry sin on him was laid here in the death of Christ I live. 3. There in the ground his body lay, Light of the world by darkness slain; Then bursxng forth in glorious day, up from the grave he rose again! And as he stands in victory, sin's curse has lost its grip on me; For I am his and he is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ. 4. No guilt in life, no fear in death this is the pow'r of Christ in me. From life's first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my desxny. No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man, can ever pluck me from his hand, Xll he returns or calls me home here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand. God blesses us and sends us out page 6
