Welcome to Worship!

Open the eyes of my heart, Lord

Open the eyes of my heart, I want to see you, I want to

see you.

To see you high and lifted upShining in the light of Your

gloryPour out Your power and love

As we sing holy, holy, holy.

Holy, holy, holy. Holy, holy, holy.

I want to see You.

It’s the song of the redeemedRising from the African plainIt’s the song of the forgiven

Drowning out the Amazon rainThe song of Asian believersFilled with God’s holy fire

It’s every tribe, every tongue, every nationA love song born of a grateful choir

It’s all God’s children singingGlory, glory, hallelujah

He reigns, He reignsIt’s all God’s children singing

Glory, glory, hallelujahHe reigns, He reigns

Let it rise about the four windsCaught up in the heavenly sound

Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals

To the faithful gathered undergroundOf all the songs sung

from the dawn of creationSome were meant to persist

Of all the bells rung from a thousand steeplesNone rings truer than this

It’s all God’s children singingGlory, glory, hallelujah

He reigns, He reignsIt’s all God’s children singing

Glory, glory, hallelujahHe reigns, He reigns

And all the powers of darknessTremble at what they’ve just heard‘Cause all the powers of darkness

Can’t drown out a single word

When all God’s children sing outGlory, glory, hallelujah

He reigns, He reignsAll God’s people singingGlory, glory, hallelujah

He reigns, He reigns

It’s all God’s children singingGlory, glory, hallelujah

He reigns, He reignsAnd all God’s children sing out

Glory, glory, hallelujahHe reigns

God Comes to us in His Word

Isaiah 49:1-7 p. 511,512John 9 p. 744,745

Train, train number nine, going down Chicago line

If the train falls off the track, do you want your money back

Yes… or noOnly seems like yesterday,

school let out the month of MaySummer fun had finally come,

dancing underneath the sunDo you remember when, do you remember when?

Summer feels like when I was young, and the time to play had finally come

Oh it could never endBut as Autumn leaves begin to change

and nothing seems to be the sameThe little child remainsThe child in me remains

 

Bubble gum, bubble gum, pieces in a dish of fun

Wishing I had been the one, to finally be set free

But I’ve been caught againThe end of summer chases us,

we can never get enoughLooking to the distant past, time is moving way to fast

Where did it go, where did it go? 

Summer feels like when I was young, and the time to play had finally come

Oh it could never endBut as Autumn leaves begin to change

and nothing seems to be the sameThe little child remainsThe child in me remains

 

The person that I used to be, is sitting right in front of meI look into the child’s face,

wondering if he’d take my placeCause then we’d both be free

It looks like time is catching me, I’m older than I ought to be

I thought that I was finally free, but yet I still believe

The heart of a child remains, the child in me remains

 

The crying child in my daddy’s arms, a mother’s love that heals the harms

Time is more than memoriesBut as seasons change and life moves

on, I’m alive and I sing this songBecause the child in me remains

The child in me remains 

All my life I’ve tried to find, the peace I thought I left behindThen in my Savior’s arms I find –

the Child in me remainsThis child of God remains.

“Who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”

“This happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life.”

“Then the man said, ‘Lord, I believe,’

and he worshiped him.”

Make an Easter difference!

Now is the time to share the greatness of God!

Everyone needs compassion

A Love that's never failing

forgivenessThe kindness of a Savior

The hope of nations
