Song Lyrics - May 24

Blessed Be Your Name

Verse 1
Blessed be Your name
In the land that is Plentiful
Where Your Streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your name

Blessed be Your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be Your name

PreChorus
Every blessing You pour out I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in Lord
Still I will Say

Chorus
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your  glorious name

Verse 2
Blessed be Your name
When the sun’s shining down on me
When the world’s all as it should be
Blessed be Your name

Blessed be Your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there’s pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name

Bridge
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord blessed be Your name

See the Conqueror

Verse 2
See the Conqueror mounts in triumph
See the King in royal state
Riding on the clouds His chariot
To his heavenly palace gate

Hark the choirs of angel voices
Joyful alleluias   sing
And the portals high are lifted
To receive their heavenly King.

Verse 2
Who is this that comes in glory with the trump of jubilee?
Lord of battles, God of armies, He has gained the victory!
He who on the cross did suffer!    He who from the grave arose!
He has vanquished sin and satan!    He by death has spoiled his foes! 

Bridge
They raced to the tomb, angels stood by
Mary was weeping for the empty inside.
For the sins of the world, for the sake of His bride
He went to His death, and behold,
He’s alive! He's alive!    
Oh - Oh! Oh! He is alive!

Verse 3
Thou hast raised our human nature in the clouds to God’s right hand
There we sit in heavenly places, there with Thee in glory stand
Jesus reigns adorned by angels; man with God is on the throne
Mighty Lord in Thine ascension; we by faith behold our own
We by faith behold our own

How Deep the Father’s Love

Verse 1
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure.

How great the pain of searing  loss,
The Father turns His face   away.
As wounds which mar the chosen One
Bring many sons to glory.

Verse 2
Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders.
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers.

It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished.
His dying breath has brought me life;
I know that it is finished

Verse 3
I will not boast in anything:
No gifts, no power, no wisdom;
But I will boast in Jesus Christ,
His death and resurrection.

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer.
But this I know with all my heart:
His wounds have paid my ransom.

How Great Thou Art

Verse 1
O Lord My God, when I in awesome wonder, 
consider all the worlds thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.

Chorus
Then sings my soul, my savior God to thee, 
How great thou art, how great thou art.
Then sings my soul, my savior God to thee, 
How great thou art, how great thou art.

Verse 2
When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees
When I look down from lofty mountain’s grandeur
And see the brook and feel the gentle breeze

Verse 3
And when I think that God his son not sparing
Sent him to die, I scarce can take it in,
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin

Verse 4
When Christ shall come with shouts of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim, My God how great thou art!
