1 SUNDAY, MARCH 25, 2018 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!

2 COME BEHOLD THE WONDROUS MYSTERY Come behold the wondrous myst ry, in the dawning of the King; He the theme of heaven s praises, robed in frail humanity. In our longing, in our darkness, now the Light of life has come. Look to Christ, who condescended, took on flesh to ransom us. Come behold the wondrous myst ry, He the perfect Son of Man; In His living, in His suff ring, never trace, nor stain of sin. See the true and better Adam, come to save the hell-bound man. Christ, the great and sure fulfillment of the law; In Him we stand. Come behold the wondrous myst ry, Christ the Lord upon the tree; In the stead of ruined sinners hangs the Lamb in victory. See the price of our redemption, see the Father s plan unfold, Bringing many sons to glory: Grace unmeasured, love untold. Come behold the wondrous mystery; Slain by death the God of life, but no grave could e er restrain Him. Praise the Lord; He is alive! What a foretaste of deliv rance, how unwavering our hope; Christ in power resurrected, as we will be when He comes. What a foretaste of deliv rance, how unwavering our hope; Christ in power resurrected, as we will be when He comes.

3 THE POWER OF THE CROSS ( OH, TO SEE THE DAWN ) Oh, to see the dawn of the darkest day: Christ on the road to Calvary. Tried by sinful men, torn and beaten, then nailed to a cross of wood. This, the pow r of the cross: Christ became sin for us. Took the blame, bore the wrath We stand forgiven at the cross. Oh, to see the pain written on Your face, bearing the awesome weight of sin. Every bitter thought, every evil deed crowning Your bloodstained brow. This, the pow r of the cross: Christ became sin for us. Took the blame, bore the wrath We stand forgiven at the cross. Now the daylight flees, now the ground beneath quakes as its Maker bows His head. Curtain torn in two, dead are raised to life; Finished! the vict ry cry. This, the pow r of the cross: Christ became sin for us. Took the blame, bore the wrath We stand forgiven at the cross. Oh, to see my name written in the wounds, for through Your suffering I am free. Death is crushed to death, life is mine to live, won through Your selfless love. This, the power of the cross: Son of God slain for us. What a love! What a cost! We stand forgiven at the cross.

4 BECAUSE HE LIVES God sent His Son, they called Him Jesus, He came to love, heal, and forgive; He lived and died to buy my pardon, an empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, because He lives all fear is gone. Because I know He holds the future, and life is worth the living just because He lives. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, because He lives all fear is gone. Because I know He holds the future, and life is worth the living just because He lives. JESUS PAID IT ALL I hear the Savior say, Thy strength indeed is small! Child of weakness watch and pray, find in Me thine all in all. Jesus paid it all all to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow. Lord, now indeed I find Thy pow'r and Thine alone can change the leper's spots and melt the heart of stone. Jesus paid it all all to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow. For nothing good have I, whereby Thy grace to claim; I ll wash my garments white in the blood of Calv ry s Lamb. Jesus paid it all all to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow. (Bridge) Oh, praise the One who paid my debt, and raised this life up from the dead. Oh, praise the One who paid my debt, and raised this life up from the dead. Oh, praise the One who paid my debt, and raised this life up from the dead. Oh, praise the One who paid my debt, and raised this life up from the dead. And when before the throne I stand in Him complete, Jesus died my soul to save, my lips shall still repeat. Jesus paid it all all to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.

5 SEE THE MAN OF SORROWS NOW Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O grave, is your sting? He s alive. See the Man of Sorrows now. Savior, high and exalted, the King of heaven victorious, Jesus, crowned with may crowns. See the Man of Sorrows now. Once You were humbled, heavy thorns upon Your brow. Once You were broken till Your love came raining down. Despised and rejected by the ones You came to save, You cried, It is finished!" and the darkness had its day. But oh, what a morning when the stone was rolled away. And the people sing: Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O grave, is your sting? He s alive. See the man of sorrows now. Savior, high and exalted, the King of heaven victorious, Jesus, crowned with many crowns. See the Man of Sorrows now. I will not fear now what Your grace has overcome. I will not tremble through a fight You ve already won. I ll lay down my burdens, and I ll lift my hands in praise. I will look to You, Jesus, Name above all other names! And the people sing: Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O grave, is your sting? He s alive. See the Man of Sorrows now. Savior, high and exalted, the King of heaven victorious, Jesus, crowned with many crowns. See the Man of Sorrows now. It is over. You have done it. Hallelujah! What a Savior. It is finished. You have won it. You will reign forevermore! It is over. You have done it. Hallelujah! What a Savior. It is finished. You have won it. You will reign forevermore! Where, O death, is your victory? Where O grave, is your sting? He s alive. See the Man of Sorrows now. Savior, high and exalted, the King of heaven victorious, Jesus, crowned with many crowns. See the Man of Sorrows now! Where O death, is your victory? Where O grave, is your sting? He s alive. See the Man of Sorrows now. Savior, high and exalted, the King of heaven victorious, Jesus, crowned with many crowns. See the man of Sorrows now! See the Man of Sorrows now! See the Man of Sorrows now!

8 AND CAN IT BE? And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Savior's blood? Died He for me, who caused His pain, for me, who Him to death pursued?

Emptied Himself of all but love and bled or Adam s helpless race. tis mercy all immense and free, that Thou, my God, would die for me.

12 OFFERTORY AMAZING GRACE, MY CHAINS ARE GONE Amazing grace how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear; And grace,my fears relieved. How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed. My chains are gone, I've been set free. My God my Savior has ransomed me. And like a flood His mercy reigns; Unending love, amazing grace. The Lord has promised good to me. His word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be, as long as life endures. My chains are gone, I've been set free. My God my Savior has ransomed me. And like a flood His mercy reigns; Unending love, amazing grace. BENEDICTION BECAUSE HE LIVES Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, because He lives, all fear is gone. Because I know He holds the future, and life is worth the living just because He lives.
