Mighty To Save
Words & Music: Ben Fielding, Reuben Morgan. ©2006 Hillsong Publishing (Admin. in U.S. & Canada by Integrity’s Hosanna! Music). CCLI Song #4591782

Everyone needs compassion
A love that’s never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations

CHORUS:
Savior, He can move the mountains
Our God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever, Author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures
And fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender
(Repeat CHORUS)

Shine Your light and let the whole world see
We’re singing for the glory of the risen King Jesus

Jesus I Come
Words: William Sleeper, 1887. Music: Greg Thompson, 2000. ©2000 Greg Thompson Music.

Out of our bondage, sorrow and night,
Jesus, we come; Jesus, we come.
Into Thy freedom, gladness and light,
Jesus, we come to Thee.
Out of our sickness, into Thy health,
Out of our wanting, into Thy wealth,
Out of our sinfulness, into Thyself,
Jesus, we come to Thee.

Out of our shameful failure and loss,
Jesus, we come; Jesus, we come.
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,
Jesus, we come to Thee.
Out of earth’s sorrows, into Thy balm,
Out of life’s storms and into Thy calm,
Out of distress into jubilant psalm,
Jesus, we come to Thee.

Out of unrest and arrogant pride,
Jesus, we come; Jesus, we come.
Into Thy blessed will to abide,
Jesus, we come to Thee.
Out of ourselves to dwell in Thy love,
Out of despair into raptures above,
Upward forever on wings like a dove,
Jesus, we come to Thee.

Out of the fear and dread of the tomb,
Jesus, we come; Jesus, we come.
Into the joy and light of Thy home,
Jesus, we come to Thee.
Out of the depths of ruin untold,
Into the peace of Thy shelt’ring fold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold,
Jesus, we come to Thee.
Jesus, we come to Thee.

Great Is Thy Faithfulness
Words: Thomas Chisholm, 1923. Music: William Runyan, 1923. ©1923 Hope Publishing Company

Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be.

CHORUS:
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
(Chorus)

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
(Chorus)

Scripture References
Lam 3:22-23

Notes
In a letter dated 1941, Thomas O. Chisholm wrote that although his income has not been enough due to his impaired health, he must record the unfailing faithfulness of God for the “wonderful displays of His providing care” and for which he is “filled with astonishing gratefulness.”

The “Doxology” lyrics and melody can be sung over the same chords as the verse of “Your Love, Oh Lord”, creating a nice medley.

Your Love, O Lord, Reaches to the heavens
Your faithfulness stretches to the sky
Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains
Your justice flows like the ocean’s tide

CHORUS:
I will lift my voice to worship you my king
And I will find my strength in the shadow of your wings

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
Amen.

There Is A Fountain
Words: William Cowper,1772. Music: Karl Digerness, ©2003 Urban Glory Music.

There is fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Emmanuel’s veins;
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.

The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there may I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away.
And there may I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away.

Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power
’Til all the ransomed church of God
Be saved to sin no more.
’Til all the ransomed church of God
Be saved to sin no more.

E’er since, by faith, I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be ’til I die.
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be ’til I die.

Sovereign Grace O’er Sin Abounding
Words: John Kent. Music: Sandra McCracken. ©2001 Same Old Dress Music (ASCAP). CCLI Song #4301154

Sovereign grace o’er sin abounding!
Ransomed souls, the tidings swell;
‘Tis a deep that knows no sounding;
Who its breadth or length can tell?
On its glories,
May my soul forever dwell.

What from Christ that soul can sever,
Bound by everlasting bands?
Once in Him, in Him forever;
Thus the eternal covenant stands.
None shall take Thee
From the Strength of Israel’s hands.

Heirs of God, joint-heirs with Jesus,
Long ere time its race begun;
To His name eternal praises;
O what wonders love has done!
One with Jesus,
By eternal union one

On such love, my soul, still ponder,
Love so great, so rich, so free;
Say, while lost in holy wonder,
Why, O Lord, such love to me?
Hallelujah! Grace shall reign
Hallelujah! Grace shall reign
Hallelujah! Grace shall reign eternally

Scripture References
Deut 32:10; Rom 8:17

Notes
Read a memoir of John Kent’s life.

Quotes from John Kent’s deathbed:
“We must all appear before the judgment-seat of Christ, to give an account of the deeds done in the body, whether they be good or bad. That portion has cut me to the heart; while at the same time it has been my hope. If I am to stand by myself to yield an account, I am lost—lost for ever! But I know it is the judgment-seat of Christ; he is my surety, and has paid all demands. I shall be tried there by a covenant of grace, and not a covenant of works. Blessed be God for his great salvation.”

“The best obedience of my hands
Dare not appear before Thy throne;
But faith can answer Thy demands,
By pleading what my Lord hath done.”

(Singing William Cowper’s hymn, There Is A Fountain):
“Til all the ransomed church of God be saved to sin no more”

Final words:
“I am accepted—accepted.”

On his deathbed, John Kent confessed that he had often been tempted to suicide and self-destruction, but had found the best defense from these attacks and the sweetest balm for every wound was Hebrews 2:18: Because Jesus himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.

John Kent, Jr:
“The melody of the heart is the best melody, and singing with the spirit and with the understanding, the sweetest employ.”

Satisfied
Words: Clara T. Williams, 1875. Music: Karl Digerness, 1997. ©2003 Urban Glory Music

All my lifelong I have panted
For a drink from some cool spring,
That I hoped would quench the burning
Of the thirst I felt within

CHORUS:
Hallelujah! He has found me
The one my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies all my longings,
Through His blood I now am saved.

Feeding on the filth around me
Til my strength was almost gone,
Longed my soul for something better,
Only still to hunger on.
(Repeat Chorus)

Poor I was, and sought for riches
Something that would satisfy
But the dust I gathered round me
Only mocked my soul’s sad cry.
(Repeat Chorus)

Well of water ever springing,
Bread of life so rich and free,
Untold wealth that never faileth,
My Redeemer is to me.
(Repeat Chorus)
