WE'RE BLESSED
Blessed! Blessed! Blessed! Blessed!
Since thou has walked uprightly as a light in a dark land
Since thou has placed in thine hearts all the Lord's commands
He set thee above nations and cast thine enemies away
He's standing up within thee so let me hear you say
We're blessed in the city, we're blessed in the field
We're blessed when we come and when we go
We cast down every stronghold, Sickness and poverty must cease
For the devil is defeated, we are blessed!
Thou believeth in God only and put no confidence in man
Everything that does concern thee, you placed it in hs hand
Though a host rise up against thee to try and spoil the day
They'll march in one road to harm thee but they'll flee seven ways
We're blessed in the city, we're blessed in the field
We're blessed when we come and when we go
We cast down every stronghold, Sickness and poverty must cease
For the devil is defeated, we are blessed!
Blessed! Blessed! Blessed! Blessed!
Late in the midnight hour, God's gonna turn it around

Late in the midnight hour, God's gonna turn it around
And around, and around, and around

Join Pastor Lloyd for Wednesday in the Word
We are studying the book of II Kings. The study picks up with David making Solomon king to succeed him on the throne. Solomon had mixed results, with his wealth and wisdom being known worldwide. He built palaces and cities, and a beautiful temple. -The house of the Lord did not match. But while on the throne, he also allowed idol worship to creep into the kingdom. And after his death, a civil war tore the nation in two. Successive kings were mainly terrible, and the prophet Elijah had dramatic confrontations with King Ahab, who could forget Jezebel on the scene. Join us Wednesday nights at 7:30 pm.
