Capo 1

C Am
1. *I was a stranger in a *barren land,
F
Not knowing the *God of glory planned
G C
To call me out *from the world into this journey. *
Am
By faith He led me to the *promised land
F
Where living water *freshens me
Gsus - Gsus7
And satisfaction’s *in the living *tree…

Chorus 1:
C G
In the church*—here to stay!*
Am
Countless times* I’ve failed but
F
You show* me the way back.
C G
I'm not* of this world!*
Am
You’ve appeared* to me Lord,
F
There's no* turning back.
C - F
I've *seen my destiny*
Em - Am
Is *an eternal city*
Dm Gsus C
Whose *Architect and Buil*der is my God*

2. Though God has brought me to this chosen land,
At times I don't really understand
The sufferings I go through, “Lord is all this for me?”
I am a man under Your sovereign hand.
Your mercy shines and now I see,
Your tenderheartedness to deal with me…

Chorus 2:
In the church, have Your way.
Strip me off of the earthly joys that replace You.
I’m not for this world.
Though the old man decays,
I’m daily renewed
My life on earth must be
To seek a better country
Whose Architect and Builder is my God

3. As I sojourn this temporary land,
Lord strengthen me, so trials I’d withstand,
Not losing sight of the eternity before me.
My future is brighter than what's at hand.
These sorrows, they will fade and flee
As glory fills me for eternity.

Chorus 3:
We’re the church in this age,
Getting ready to meet our Bridegroom that day!
We are not for this world!
We’re preparing for the new heav’n and new earth.
To be His masterpiece,
His bride eternally—
Our destiny’s the New Jerusalem.

Not For This World

D
Our God is a God of joy.
  Bm
Enjoying Him is my strength.
    D
His Spirit in mine anoints,
    G                A
And gladness imparts today.
   D
Forgetting all other things,
   Bm
Of service and laboring,
    D
But opening all my being,
 G               A
Exultingly all I sing—

            D
  My God is joy!
             A
  His joy my strength.
              Bm
  He fills my days
                 G
  With ceaseless praise.
     A      D
  My God is love,
          A
  Unspeakable,
           Bm
  So wonderful,
             G               A           D
  With glory full, oh God, become my joy today.

2. Abiding in Christ the Vine,
His living supply I take.
His joy is becoming mine,
By calling upon His name.
This fullness of joy in me
Displaces anxiety,
And fills me with utter peace,
For Christ is my everything!

My God Is Joy

The Lord is calling us to be part of His eternal purpose to build up the church as the Body of Christ, His glorious expression. This song is a prayer to turn to the Lord, open to Him, and offer ourselves to Him.

I'm Your Vessel

O Lord!

06 This Wonderful Faith

1  かみの小ひつじキリスト！たかいだい価はらい、
堕らくしたわれらを あがない、回ふくした。
かれはきずがなく、 にゅう和、な小ひつじ。
死にいたるまで従順。 かれの様になりたい。
（復1）
さまよわずに、ただ安そくして、
どこへどの様に、みちびくのかは知らなくても、
かれのこえ、 かれのかえりみ、
知っている。 小ひつじにしたがい行く。

2 かれとかれのみちを知り、のこるものはわずか。
せまきみちをあゆむ かみの小ひーつじよ。
いなまれても主は、いのちをささげた。
われはどうして かたくなでいられようか？
→復1

3 主よ､生がいをまもりませ。
めぐみにより十字架を取り、
あなたを追いもとめつづけさせよ。
すべて保りゅうせず、あなたにささげる。
こころにシオンへの おお路があるように。
（復2）いましたがう。召しにこたえる。
すべてささげて、新エルサレムを見る。
かみとひと混ざり合い、永遠にひとつ。
そこへと小ひつじ、みちびいている。

彼に従い行く/ I want to follow Him

John 16:22 & 33

A song that touched us so much during the 2016 Poland conference!

Thou Art My Beloved

Come and let us return to Jehovah;
For He has torn us, but He will heal us,
And He has stricken us, but He will bind us up.
He will enliven us after two days;
And on the third day He will raise us up,
And we will live in His presence.
On the third day He will raise us up,
And we will live in His presence.

Therefore let us know,
Let us pursue knowing Jehovah;
Therefore let us know,
Let us pursue knowing Jehovah:
His going forth is as sure as the dawn
And He will come to us as the rain
As the late rain which waters the earth.
Therefore let us know,
Let us pursue knowing Jehovah.

Once It Was The Blessing Church Life Hymn 513 A B Simpson

Question & Response spoken by R.K. in San Francisco, California on 12/8/19.

How Can I Be Saved From Being Frustrated With Another Serving One's Disposition? (R.K.)

Lyrics

Did you know that Christ
In Ephesians chapter five
Compared the church to His bride
Him the Husband we the wife

Husbands, love your wives
Even as Christ loved the church
And gave Himself up for her
Willingly He died for her

That He might sanctify her, cleansing her
By the washing of the water in the word
Christ gave himself for His Church
To flow His life into her
