LYRICS: Change the World If I could reach the stars I'd pull one down for you Shine it on my heart so you could see the truth That this love I have inside is everything it seems But for now I find it's only in my dreams That I can Change the world I would be the sunlight in your universe You would think my love was really something good If I could be king even for a day I'd take you as my queen I'd have it no other way And our love will rule in this kingdom that we had made Till then I'll be a fool wishin' for the day That I can Change the world I would be the sunlight in your universe You would think my love was really something good If I could Change the world I would be the sunlight in your universe You would think my love was really something good CCLI#48841.

The Call to Worship God Romans 12:1-2 (NIV): Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of god s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God which is your spiritual worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God s will is his good, pleasing and perfect will.
All Creatures of Our God and King Verse 1 All creatures of our God and King, Lift up your voice and with us sing, Alleluia, Alleluia! Thou burning sun with golden beam, Thou silver moon with softer gleam, Verse 2 Thou rushing wind that art so strong, Ye clouds that sail in heav'n along, O praise Him, Alleluia! Thou rising morn in praise rejoice, Ye lights of evening, find a voice, Verse 4 And all ye men of tender heart, Forgiving others, take your part, O sing ye, Alleluia! Ye who long pain and sorrow bear, Praise God and on Him cast your care, Verse 5 Let all things their Creator bless, And worship Him in humbleness, O praise Him, Alleluia! Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son, And praise the Spirit, Three in One, Text: St. Francis of Assisi. Music: Geistliche Kirchengesange, Cologne, 1623. Indescribable Verse 1 From the highest of heights
To the depths of the sea Creation's revealing Your majesty From the colors of Fall To the fragrance of Spring Ev'ry creature unique And the song that it sings All exclaiming Chorus 1 Indescribable uncontainable You placed the stars in the sky And You know them by name All powerful untamable Awestruck we fall to our knees As we humbly proclaim Verse 2 Who has told ev'ry lightning bolt Where it should go Or seen heavenly storehouses Laden with snow Who imagined the sun And gives source to its light Yet conceals it to bring us The coolness of night None can fathom Chorus 2 x 2 Indescribable uncontainable You placed the stars in the sky And You know them by name Incomparable, unchangeable You see the depths of my heart And you love me the same CCLI @#48841.

I John 3:1-3 1 How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him. 2 Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when He appears, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 3 Everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure. NIV Agnus Dei Alleluia, alleluia, For our Lord, God Almighty reigns. Alleluia, alleluia, For our Lord, God Almighty reigns. Alleluia. Holy, holy, Are You Lord, God Almighty. You are holy, holy. Are You Lord, God Almighty. You are holy. CCLI #48841. Copyright 1990, O Ryan Music, Inc. Michael W. Smith. The Apostles' Creed I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth And in Jesus Christ His Only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, Born of the Virgin Mary, Suffered under Pontius Pilate, Was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into Hell; The third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven,
And sitteth on the right hand of God, The Father Almighty; From thence He shall come To judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, The holy catholic church, The communion of saints, The forgiveness of sins, The resurrection of the body, And the life everlasting. Amen. The Shepherd s Voice When I was fresh from God, the first thing I heard was As I came into this life The sound of fear ringing in my ear my own voice As life hit me and I cried As I grew through the years, the chorus of temptation Beckoned me to come and sing a part But Jesus was a name that rolled from my Mammaw s tongue And settled in my heart Now what I m listening for The confusion that the bustle brings, the pretty song, the siren sings THE sound of teeth against forbidden fruit A fallen man who screams in pain the growing earth beneath the strain Who could hope to ever hear the truth But what I m listening for When I am tired and I am weary of this life and I am done I will close my eyes and let my spirit still until I hear the Son
And what I m listening for What I m listening for CCLI#48841. Copyright 2009 Gordon Kennedy and Ben Cooper. Used By Permission. The Lord is King Verse 1 The Lord is King, lift up thy voice O earth and all ye heavens rejoice From world to world the joy shall ring The Lord omnipotent is King Verse 2 The Lord is King! Who then shall dare Resist His will, distrust His care Or question still His faithfulness Or doubt His royal promises? Verse 3 He reigns ye saints, exalt your strains Your God is King, your Father reigns And He is at the Father s side The Man of Love, the Crucified Verse 4 One Lord one empire all secures He reigns, and life and death are yours; Through earth and heaven one song shall ring, The Lord omnipotent is King CCLI #48841.
