Mike Stokke Assistant Pastor, Middle Adults W“Let Us Love and Sing and Wonder” ������������������������������������������������������������������������������� John Newton
Let us love and sing and wonder, let us praise the Savior’s Name! He has hushed the law’s loud thunder, He has quenched Mount Sinai’s flame. He has washed us with His blood, He has washed us with His blood, He has washed us with His blood, He has brought us nigh to God. Let us love the Lord Who bought us, pitied us when enemies, Called us by His grace, and taught us, gave us ears and gave us eyes: He has washed us with His blood, He has washed us with His blood, He has washed us with His blood, He presents our souls to God. Let us sing, though fierce temptation threatens hard to bear us down! For the Lord, our strong Salvation, holds in view the conqueror’s crown: He, Who washed us with His blood, He, Who washed us with His blood, He, Who washed us with His blood, soon will bring us home to God. Let us wonder; grace and justice join and point to mercy’s store; When through grace in Christ our trust is, justice smiles and asks no more: He, Who washed us with His blood, He, Who washed us with His blood, He, Who washed us with His blood, has secured our way to God. Let us praise, and join the chorus of the saints enthroned on high; Here they trusted Him before us, now their praises fill the sky: Thou hast washed us with Thy blood; Thou hast washed us with Thy blood; Thou hast washed us with Thy blood; Thou art worthy, Lamb of God!

SONGS FOR THE TABLE “Jesus Paid It All”�������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������� ALL TO CHRIST
I hear the Savior say, “Your strength indeed is small; Child of weakness, watch and pray, find in Me Your 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 Your pow’r, and Yours 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 Your 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. 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.
“Be Thou My Vision”. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Ancient Irish Poem
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart; Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art. Thou my best thought, by day or by night, Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light. Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word; I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord; Thou my great Father, I Thy true son, Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one. Be Thou my Battleshield, Sword for my fight; Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight, Thou my soul’s shelter, Thou my high tow’r: Raise Thou me heav’nward, O Pow’r of my pow’r. Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise, Thou mine inheritance, now and always; Thou and Thou only, first in my heart, High King of heaven, my Treasure Thou art. High King of heaven, my victory won, May I reach heaven’s joys, O bright hea’vn’s Sun! Heart of mine own heart, whatever befall, Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all. “Jesus! What a Friend for Sinners!”������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������ HYFRYDOL
Jesus! what a Friend for sinners! Jesus! Lover of my soul; Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing, He, my strength, my vict’ry wins. Hallelujah! what a Savior! Hallelujah! what a Friend! Saving, helping, keeping, loving, He is with me to the end. Jesus! what a strength in weakness! Let me hide myself in Him; Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing, He, my strength, my vict’ry wins. Chorus Jesus! what a help in sorrow! While the billows o’er me roll, Even when my heart is breaking, He, my comfort, helps my soul. Chorus Jesus! what a guide and keeper! While the tempest still is high, Storms about me, night o’ertakes me, He, my pilot, hears my cry. Chorus Jesus! I do now receive Him, more than all in Him I find; He hath granted me forgiveness, I am His, and He is mine. Chorus
