4 10,000 REASONS 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 time to sing your song again. Whatever may pass, and whatever lies before me, Let me be singing when the evening comes. 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. And on that day, when my strength is failing, The end draws near, and my time has come; Still my soul will sing Your praise unending, Ten thousand years, and then forever more!

Music Publishing BIBLE READING GENESIS 26:1-6, Now there was a famine in the land besides the earlier famine of Abraham s time and Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines in Gerar. 2 The LORD appeared to Isaac and said, Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land where I tell you to live. 3 Stay in this land for a while, and I will be with you and will bless you. For to you and your descendants I will give all these lands and will confirm the oath I swore to your father Abraham. 4 I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and will give them all these lands, and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed 5 because Abraham obeyed me and kept my requirements, my commands, my decrees and my laws. 6 So Isaac stayed in Gerar. 12 Isaac planted crops in that land and the same year reaped a hundredfold, because the LORD blessed him. 13 The man became rich, and his wealth continued to grow until he became very wealthy. 14 He had so many flocks and herds and servants that the Philistines envied him. 15 So all the wells that his father s servants had dug in the time of his father Abraham, the Philistines stopped up, filling them with earth. 16 Then Abimelech said to Isaac, Move away from us; you have become too powerful for us. 17 So Isaac moved away from there and encamped in the Valley of Gerar, and settled there. 18 Isaac reopened the wells that had been dug in the time of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham died, and he gave them the same names his father had given them. 19 Isaac s servants dug in the valley and discovered a well of fresh water there. 20 But the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac s herdsmen and said, The water is ours! So he named the well Esek because they disputed with him. 21 Then they dug another well, but they quarreled over that one also; so he named it Sitnah. 22 He moved on from there and dug another well, and no one quarreled over it. He named it Rehoboth, saying, Now the LORD has given us room and we will flourish in the land.

BIBLE READING MATTHEW 25:14-29 14 Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them.

16 The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more. 17 So also, the one with the two talents gained two more.

20 The man who had received the five talents brought the other five. Master, he said, you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.

5 BIBLE READING MATTHEW 25: Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them. 15 To one he gave five talents of money, to another two talents, and to another one talent, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. 16 The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more. 17 So also, the one with the two talents gained two more. 18 But the man who had received one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master s money. 19 After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20 The man who had received the five talents brought the other five. Master, he said, you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more. 21 His master replied, Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master s happiness! 22 The man with the two talents also came. Master, he said, you entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more. 23 His master replied, Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master s happiness! 24 Then the man who had received the one talent came. Master, he said, I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you. 26 His master replied, You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? 27 Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest. 28 Take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents. 29 For everyone who has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.

6 HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD GREAT IS YOUR FAITHFULNESS Great is Your faithfulness, O God my father, You have fulfilled all your promise to me; You never fail and Your love is unchanging, All You have been You forever will be. Great is Your faithfulness, great is Your faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed your hand has provided, Great is Your faithfulness, Father, to me. Pardon for sin and a peace everlasting, Your living presence to cheer and to guide; Strength for today, and bright hope for tomorrow, These are the blessings Your love will provide. Words written by Thomas O Chisholm Music written by W M Runyan 1923 (Renewed 1951) Hope Publishing Company The splendour of the King, clothed in majesty; Let all the earth rejoice, all the earth rejoice. He wraps Himself in light, and darkness tries to hide, And trembles at His voice, and trembles at His voice. How great is our God! Sing with me, how great is our God! And all will see how great, how great is our God! And 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! Bridge Name above all names, worthy of all praise! My heart will sing: how great is our God! Name above all names, worthy of all praise! My heart will sing: how great is our God!
