Lord, Thou As The Living Oyster

You heard there was a God above
Named Jesus Christ who shed His blood
But you don’t really care for those things, do you? 
You’re on your own; do what you like. 
If there’s a God, why does He hide?
You scorn and you despise, the hallelujah…
	Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 
	Hallelujah! Hallel-u-jah! 

You fill your head with higher things
The spiritual philosophies, 
And yet you know they’ll never satisfy you.
No! Words like these cannot define 
the meaning of your human life. 
No rest, no peace, no not one “hallelujah” 
	Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 
	Hallelujah! Hallel-u-jah! 

Finally, you see the Book
And something says to take a look. 
You open up the Bible someone gave you.
And then you see in shining light 
That Jesus came to be your life!
You cry with tears in spirit, “Hallelujah!”
	Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 
	Hallelujah! Hallel-u-jah! 

Day by day, God grows in you!
With all the saints you now pursue
A Person who is real, alive, and human!
Be found in Him, the self deny
Resurrection, power supplied!  
Eternally we’ll cry out, “Hallelujah!”
	Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 
	Hallelujah! Hallel-u-jah!

I Love Thee, Jesus (Hymn #1154)

O Lord, we open to You

I've Given Up the World

1. In the ebb and flow of life 
So much lies beyond my power
I’m left-desperate and lost
Just surviving hour by hour
But the sweet reminders come 
that my Lord is far above
all my fears; and he is waiting for me now

	Today I choose to cling to Him
	The One who loves Me
	Today I choose to praise my Lord
	whose Blood’s released Me 
	Not running from the past, with all its pain
	Not running toward the future, with its 
	gains
	Today I choose to love and praise my Lord!

2. In my fellowship with Him
How He shines on what’s within
I’m a-failure with no end
Yet the blood fails not to cleanse
Satan tries make me doubt
Paralyze my growth in life
Yet his schemes have no success on me because

3. Though the world still calls my name
and my love for it remains
The Lord-draws me near to Him
Gently touching what I grip
Though I fail, He never will
He is faithful and I still
Put my trust in Him to carry me today

Today I choose to cling WST 24’

Lyrics 

Chasing after this holy moment 
I need direction to keep on going
Now I’m falling I hear you calling
Trust fall yeah you know I’m all in 


You never lack you never fail
You never have you never will
I lift my eyes up to you Lord 
I lift my eyes up to you Lord

I lift my eyes up to you Lord 


I will rise up

I Will Rise

Hymn #513 Once It Was The Blessing

Lord, we thank You for Your divine life in us!

Here are the words:
1	 	Thou art all my life, Lord,
 	 	 	In me Thou dost live;
 	 	With Thee all God’s fulness
 	 	 	Thou to me dost give.
 	 	By Thy holy nature
 	 	 	I am sanctified,
 	 	By Thy resurrection,
 	 	 	Vict’ry is supplied.

2	 	Now Thy flowing life, Lord,
 	 	 	Doth enlighten me,
 	 	Bringing in the spirit
 	 	 	Fellowship with Thee;
 	 	All my need supplying,
 	 	 	Making Thy demand,
 	 	Leading me to cleansing
 	 	 	And in Thee to stand.

3	 	Thy anointing Spirit
 	 	 	Me shall permeate,
 	 	All my soul and spirit
 	 	 	Thou wouldst saturate;
 	 	Every part transforming
 	 	 	Till conformed to Thee,
 	 	Till Thy life shall bring me
 	 	 	To maturity.

4	 	Lord, Thy life abundant,
 	 	 	Flowing, rich and free,
 	 	Constantly refreshes
 	 	 	And empowers me.
 	 	Death by life is swallowed,
 	 	 	Weakness is made strong,
 	 	All my bonds are broken,
 	 	 	Gloom is turned to song.

5	 	I would give myself, Lord,
 	 	 	Fully unto Thee,
 	 	That Thy heart’s desire
 	 	 	Be fulfilled in me.
 	 	I no more would struggle
 	 	 	To myself reform,
 	 	Thus in me to hinder
 	 	 	What Thou wouldst perform.

6	 	I would cease completely
 	 	 	From my efforts vain,
 	 	Let Thy life transform me,
 	 	 	Full release to gain;
 	 	Build me up with others
 	 	 	Till in us Thou see
 	 	Thy complete expression
 	 	 	Glorifying Thee.

H#841 Thou art all my life Lord

1. God who never changes
Your heart is set on man
My life is consecrated
To carry out your plan
Quietly I am waiting
Your whisper in my ear
You're stirring up my spirit
To you Lord, Draw me near

CHORUS:
O God, you can do whatever that You want. 
From this day on I allow you to work on me
Work through me, gain all of me.

2. Following your leading
Listening to your word
my life is full of meaning
Your speaking now I've heard
Everything that was gain
Is counted now as loss
Christ you are my center
Whatever be the cost

BRIDGE:
Man's heart devises his way, but
Jehovah directs his footsteps
Your way is my intention
I fear not, I simply go
