Songs for Sunday, September 28, 2014
What songs might you sing and hear this Sunday? Glad you asked. We’d like to say we’ll have the London Philharmonic, Matt Maher, and U2 joining us, but your robust singing will be more than ample in their absence.

Come Thou Almighty King (Anonymous/Italian hymn) 1 Come, thou Almighty King, Help us thy name to sing, Help us to praise: Father, all glorious, O’er all victorious, Come, and reign over us, Ancient of days. 2 Come, thou Incarnate Word, Gird on thy mighty sword, Our prayer attend: Come and thy people bless, And give thy Word success; Spirit of holiness, On us descend. |
3 Come, Holy Comforter, Thy sacred witness bear In this glad hour: Thou who almighty art, Now rule in every heart, And ne’er from us depart, Spirit of power. 4 To Thee great One in Three Eternal praises be, Hence evermore. His sovereign majesty May we in glory see, And to eternity Love and adore. ©Public Domain |

In Christ Alone (K. Getty/S. Townend) 1 In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my light, my strength, my song This Cornerstone, this solid ground, Firm through the fiercest drought & storm What heights of love, what depths of peace, When fears are stilled, when strivings cease My Comforter, my All in All. Here in the love of Christ I stand 2 In Christ alone, who took on flesh, Fullness of God in helpless babe This gift of love and righteousness, Scorned by the ones He came to save ‘Til on that cross as Jesus died, The wrath of God was satisfied |
For every sin on Him was laid; Here in the death of Christ I live 3 There in the ground His body lay, Light of the world by darkness slain Then bursting forth in glorious day Up from the grave He rose again And as He stands in victory Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me For I am His and He is mine – Bought with the precious blood of Christ 4 No guilt in life, no fear in death, This is the power of Christ in me From life’s first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny No power of hell, no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand ‘Til he returns or calls me home, Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
