Who You Say I Am

Verse 1

Who am I that the highest King
Would welcome me
I was lost but He brought me in
Oh His love for me
Oh His love for me

Chorus 1

Who the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
I’m a child of God
Yes I am

Verse 2

Free at last
He has ransomed me
His grace runs deep
While I was a slave to sin
Jesus died for me
Yes He died for me

Chorus 2

In my Father’s house
There’s a place for me
I’m a child of God
Yes I am

Bridge

I am chosen not forsaken
I am who You say I am
You are for me not against me
I am who You say I am

Tag

(Oh) (Yes) I am who You say I am

Praise Is The Highway

Chorus

Praise is the highway to the throne of God

The rocks will cry out the oceans will roar
The mountains will bow to the name of the Lord
He is our God He will be praised

Verse 2

The idols will fall the strongholds will break
Every weapon that forms will shatter and fail
He is our God He is our faith

Verse 3

Revival will come the church will awake
His anthem will drown all other refrains
He is our song He forever reigns

Bridge

Lift up your head fling wide the gates
Break down the walls with a shout of praise
Lift up your voice pull Heaven down
Oh sing like thunder make His praises loud

Chain Breaker

Verse 1

If you’ve been walking the same old road
For miles and miles
If you’ve been hearing the same old voice
Tell the same old lies
If you’re trying to fill the same old holes inside
There’s a better life
There’s a better life

Chorus

If you’ve got pain He’s a pain taker
If you feel lost He’s a way maker
If you need freedom or saving
He’s a prison shaking Savior
If you got chains He’s a chain breaker

Verse 2

We’ve all searched for the light of day
In the dead of night
We’ve all found ourselves worn out
From the same old fight
We’ve all run to things we know just ain’t right
When there’s a better life
There’s a better life

Bridge

If you believe it
If you receive it
If you can feel it
Somebody testify

Ending

Oh if you need freedom or saving
He’s a prison shaking Savior
If you got chains well He’s a chain breaker

Good, Good Father

Verse 1

I’ve heard a thousand stories
Of what they think You’re like
But I’ve heard the tender whisper
Of love in the dead of night
You tell me that You’re pleased
And that I’m never alone

Chorus

You’re a Good Good Father
It’s who You are
It’s who You are
It’s who You are
And I’m loved by You
It’s who I am
It’s who I am
It’s who I am

Verse 2

I’ve seen many searching for answers
Far and wide
But I know we’re all searching for answers
Only You provide
Because You know just what we need
Before we say a word

Bridge

You are perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways to us

Verse 3

Love so undeniable I can hardly speak
Peace so unexplainable I can hardly think
As You call me deeper still
As You call me deeper still
As You call me deeper still
Into love love love

We Will Not Be Shaken

Chorus

For we trust in our God
And through His unfailing love
We will not be shaken
We will not be shaken
We will not be shaken
(REPEAT)

Verse

Though the battle rages
We will stand in the fight
Though the armies rise up against us on all sides
We will not be shaken
We will not be shaken
We will not be shaken

Pre-Chorus

For in the hour of our darkest day
We will not tremble we won’t be afraid
Hope is rising like the light of dawn
Our God
Is for us He has overcome

Bridge

All those against Him will fall
For our God is stronger
He can do all things
No higher name we can call
For Jesus is greater
We can do all things

Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)

Verse 1

Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I’m found
Was blind but now I see

Verse 2

‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

Chorus

My chains are gone I’ve been set free
My God my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love amazing grace

Verse 3

The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures

Verse 4

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine

Sermon Notes for 3.22.20

Sermon notes for “Beautifully Broken” -3.22.20

Choosing to worship in our brokenness

Job 1:20-22

Three things we need to understand about worship to be able to choose to worship:

Real worship isn’t pretty, but it is beautiful
 
…when we are honest about how life really is

…when we are honest about how we really feel

Real worship isn’t easy, but it is simple

…when we learn to accept our human limitations

…when we accept God’s divine sovereignts

Real worship isn’t final, but it is complete

…when we have run to the sufficiency of God
 


March 2020 – Jake Myers

March Newsletter
Jake Myers
 
Currently in our youth group we are going through a study about women in the Bible. We first started going through the story of Naomi and Ruth, and while their stories might be familiar to us I think that one of the central messages they provide can be very useful given the current state of the world. I won’t go word-for-word into their story but both of them lost everything. Their husbands had passed away which meant they were widows, which meant they literally had nothing; no house, no job, no money for food, no sense of importance to the community. To say that they were struggling would be an understatement. Yet through all their struggles and all their hardships, God still blessed them and in the end they were able to get back what they had lost. God used their greatest struggles to lead them to their greatest impact, there was purpose to their struggle. Often we don’t see the bigger picture and that’s mostly because we get caught up in the present, and also we’re not God. We can’t see all of God’s plan for us, we don’t know what He has planned for us to go through — good and bad.

            So as we continue on in this year, in this very strange, difficult, scary year let’s try to remember that our struggles are part of God’s plan. I think that if we have all of this in our minds and our hearts, we can become examples in this trying time in our world. Our communities need a source of peace amidst this chaotic time, and we can be that source. Pastor Mike says this all the time but we can be a light in this dark world, and I believe this is a perfect chance for us. There are a bunch of verses I could quote about being calm but John 14:27 really stands out to me:

 

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”

 

This is Jesus speaking to the disciples, and I believe these words ring true especially today.

            My prayer for not only this church but also the Church across the globe is that we can be the peace that our neighbors and communities need and when we are struggling we can remind ourselves that there is a purpose to our struggling. The last part of my prayer is that when this storm passes, we continue to be there for our communities. Not just in time of great distress but also in relative peace and quiet. We can get through this hectic and disparaging time, it won’t be a cake walk but we can get it done. We have each other and we also serve the Lord Almighty!
