SCRIPTURE READING - Ephesians 2:11 18 Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called the uncircumcision by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace, and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility. And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near. For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father. SONG Verse 1 You came down from Heaven s throne This earth You formed was not Your home A love like this the world had never known A crown of thorns to mock Your name Forgiveness fell upon Your face A love like this the world had never known On the altar of our praise Let there be no higher name Jesus, Son of God You laid down Your perfect life You are the sacrifice Jesus, Son of God (You are Jesus, Son of God) Jesus, Son of God Verse 2 You took our sin, You bore our shame You rose to life, You defeated the grave And a love like this the world has never known Cause You took our sin, You bore our shame You rose to life, You defeated the grave A love like this the world has never known Bridge Be lifted higher than all You ve overcome Your name be louder than any other song There is no power that can come against Your love The cross was enough The cross was enough (The cross was enough) (The cross was enough) 2
