Romans 1:1-17
This Sunday, we will focus on the power of the gospel in the life of the believer. As you prepare for worship, listen to these songs and reflect on the truths they communicate. Consider how these songs connect the finished work of Jesus to our past sins, present reality, and future eternal. We look forward to singing and worshiping together on Sunday!
Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise
Lyrics
Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious, thy great Name we praise.
Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
Nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;
Thy justice like mountains high soaring above
Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
To all life thou givest—to both great and small;
In all life thou livest, the true life of all;
We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
And wither and perish—but naught changeth thee.
Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
Thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;
All laud we would render: O help us to see
’Tis only the splendor of light hideth thee.
Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious, thy great Name we praise.
Nothing But The Blood
Lyrics
What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
Chorus:
O precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
For my pardon this I see
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus
For my cleansing, this my plea
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
This is all my hope and peace
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus
This is all my righteousness
Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.
Christ Be Magnified
Lyrics
Were creation suddenly articulate
With a thousand tongues to lift one cry
Then from North to South and East to West
We'd hear Christ be magnified
Were the whole Earth echoing His eminence
His name would burst from sea and sky
From rivers to the mountain tops
We'd hear Christ be magnified
Oh! Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh! Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
When every creature finds its inmost melody
And every human heart its native cry
Oh then in one enraptured hymn of praise
We'll sing Christ be magnified
Oh, be lifted high, Jesus
Oh! Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh! Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
I won't bow to idols, I'll stand strong and worship You
And if it puts me in the fire, I'll rejoice 'cause You're there too
I won't be formed by feelings, I hold fast to what is true
If the cross brings transformation then I'll be crucified with You
'Cause death is just the doorway into resurrection life
And if I join You in Your suffering, then I'll join You when You rise
And when You return in glory with all the angels and the saints
My heart will still be singing, my song will be the same
Oh! Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh! Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
Lyrics
Hear the heart of Heaven beating
Jesus saves, Jesus saves
And the hush of mercy breathing
Jesus saves, Jesus saves
Hear the host of angels sing
"Glory to the Newborn King"
And the sounding joy repeating
"Jesus saves"
See the humblest hearts adore Him
Jesus saves, Jesus saves
And the wisest bow before Him
Jesus saves, Jesus saves
See the sky alight with praise
Melting darkness in its place
There is light forevermore, and
Jesus saves
He will live our sorrow sharing
Jesus saves, Jesus saves
He will die our burden bearing
Jesus saves, Jesus saves
"It is done!", we'll shout across
Christ has paid redemption's cost
While the empty tomb's declaring
"Jesus saves"
Freedom's calling, chains are falling
Hope is dawning, bright and true
Day is breaking, night is quaking
God is making all things new
Jesus saves
Oh, to grace, how great a debtor
Jesus saves, Jesus saves
All the saints who shout together
"I know that Jesus saves"
Rising up so vast and strong
Lifting up salvation's song
The redeemed will sing forever
"Jesus saves"
