Brothers and Sisters,

Our scripture focus this week is Revelation 12, where we find a great war against the Church, yet the Devil’s works in the world are constantly being cancelled by the power of the Gospel. God protects His people by swallowing up the flood of lies and accusations against the people of God, by the Gospel, by His Word and carrying them by “two wings of a great eagle” (12:14)… So – have a great day knowing this.

Women’s mentoring is today, Wednesday… I will be explaining the imagery of Revelation 12 to the children this morning…

Tonight, prayer is being held at the Brown’s Barn.The songs we will be singing are,

Here are the song choices. Let me know if you want any changes.

1. At The Cross

2. Come Behold The Wondrous Mystery

3. Oh Lord My Rock & My Redeemer

4. Ye Nations Of The Earth Rejoice

5. Christ The Lord Is Risen Today

AT THE CROSS

Alas! and did my Savior bleed?

And did my Sov’reign die?

Would He devote that sacred head

For sinners such as I?

At the cross, at the cross,

Where I first saw the light,

And the burden of my heart rolled away

It was there by faith, I received my sight

And now I am happy all the day

as it for crimes that I have done

He groaned upon the tree?

Amazing pity! grace unknown!

And love beyond degree!

At the cross, at the cross,

Where I first saw the light,

And the burden of my heart rolled away

It was there by faith, I received my sight

And now I am happy all the day

Well might the sun in darkness hide

And shut his glories in

When Christ, the mighty Maker, died

For man, the creature’s, sin

At the cross, at the cross,

Where I first saw the light,

And the burden of my heart rolled away

It was there by faith, I received my sight

And now I am happy all the day

But drops of grief can ne’er repay

The debt of love I owe

Here, Lord, I give myself away;

‘Tis all that I can do

At the cross, at the cross,

Where I first saw the light,

And the burden of my heart rolled away

It was there by faith, I received my sight

And now I am happy all the day

COME BEHOLD THE WONDROUS MYSTERY

Come Behold the Wondrous Mystery

Come behold the wondrous mystery

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 mystery

He the perfect Son of Man

In His living, in His suffering

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 mystery

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 deliverance

How unwavering our hope

Christ in power resurrected

As we will be when He comes

OH LORD MY ROCK AND MY REDEEMER

O Lord, My Rock and My Redeemer

O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer

Greatest treasure of my longing soul

My God, like You there is no other

True delight is found in You alone

Your grace, a well too deep to fathom

Your love exceeds the heavens’ reach

Your truth, a fount of perfect wisdom

My highest good and my unending need

O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer

Strong defender of my weary heart

My sword to fight the cruel deceiver

And my shield against his hateful darts

My song when enemies surround me

My hope when tides of sorrow rise

My joy when trials are abounding

Your faithfulness, my refuge in the night

O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer

Gracious Savior of my ruined life

My guilt and cross laid on Your shoulders

In my place You suffered bled and died

You rose, the grave and death are conquered

You broke my bonds of sin and shame

O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer

May all my days bring glory to Your Name

YE NATIONS OF THE EARTH REJOICE

Ye nations of the earth rejoice

Before the Lord, your sovereign King;

Serve Him with cheerful heart and voice,

With all your tongues His glory sing.

The Lord is God; ‘tis He alone

Doth life and breath and being give;

We are His work, and not our own,

The sheep that on His pastures live.

Enter His gates with songs of joy,

With praises to His courts repair,

And make it your divine employ

To pay your thanks and honors there.

The Lord is good, the Lord is kind;

Great is His grace, His mercy sure;

And the whole race of man shall find

His truth from age to age endure.

CHRIST THE LORD IS RISEN TODAY

Christ the Lord Is Risen Today

Christ the Lord is ris’n today, Alleluia!

Sons of men and angels say: Alleluia!

Raise your joys and triumphs high. Alleluia!

Sing, ye heav’ns, and earth, reply: Alleluia!

Lives again our glorious King. Alleluia!

Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!

Dying once, He all doth save. Alleluia!

Where thy victory, O grave? Alleluia!

Love’s redeeming work is done. Alleluia!

Fought the fight, the battle won. Alleluia!

Death in vain forbids Him rise. Alleluia!

Christ has opened paradise. Alleluia!

Soar we now where Christ has led. Alleluia!

Foll’wing our exalted Head. Alleluia!

Made like Him, like Him we rise. Alleluia!

Ours the cross, the grave, the skies. Alleluia!
