WE’VE COME THIS FAR

BY FAITH
 

We’ve come this far by faith,

leaning on the Lord,

Trusting in His holy Word,

He's never failed me yet.
 

Oh, oh, oh, can't turn a-round,

We've come this far by faith.

 

 

LORD I LIFT YOUR 

NAME ON HIGH 

 

Lord I lift Your name on high 

Lord I love to sing Your praises 

I’m so glad You’re in my life 

I’m so glad You came to save us 

 

You came from heaven to earth,

to show the way 
 

From the earth to the cross, 

my debt to pay 
 

From the cross to the grave, 

from the grave to the sky 

Lord I lift Your name on high

.

 

 

 

SINCE I LAID MY BURDENS DOWN 

 

Glory, glory, Hallelujah!  

Since I laid my burdens down 

Glory, glory, Hallelujah! 

Since I laid my burdens down 

 

Friends don’t treat me like they used to 

Since I laid my burdens down 

Friends don’t treat me like they used to 

Since I laid my burdens down 

 

I feel better, so much better 

Since I laid my burdens down 

I feel better, so much better 

Since I laid my burdens down 

 

I REALLY LOVE THE 

LORD

 

I really love the Lord
I really love the Lord

You don't know what He's done for me

He gave me the victory

I love Him, I love Him

I really love the Lord

 

FOR YOUR GLORY

 

Verse:
[Lead] Lord if I,
Find favor in Your sight
Lord please,
Hear my hearts cry

I'm desperately waiting,
To be where You are
I'll cross the hottest desert,
I'll travel near or far

Chorus:
For Your glory,
I will do anything
Just to see You,
To behold You as my King

For Your glory,
I will do anything
Just to see you,
To behold You as my King

Verse:
[All] Lord if I,
Find favor in Your sight
Lord please,
Hear my hearts cry

I'm desperately waiting,
To be where You are,
I'll cross the hottest desert,
I'll travel near or far

Chorus:
For Your glory,
I will do anything
Just to see You,
To behold You as my King

For Your glory,
I will do anything
Just to see you,
To behold You as my King

For Your glory,
I will do anything
Just to see you,
To behold You as my King

 

Bridge:
[Lead] I wanna be where You are, I gotta be where You are

[All] I wanna be where You are, I gotta be where You are
I wanna be where You are, I gotta be where You are
I wanna be where You are, I gotta be where You are
I wanna be where You are, I gotta be where You are

I wanna be where You are, I gotta be where You are
I wanna be where You are, I gotta be where You are
I wanna be where You are, I gotta be where You are

To behold You as my King

I wanna be where You are
Peace is Where You are 
Joy is Where You are
And love is who You are

 

WE ARE STANDING ON 

HOLY GROUND 

 

We are standing on Holy 

ground. 

And I know that there angels all around 

Let us praise Jesus now 

We are standing in His presence on Holy ground

 

GOD'S GOT A BLESSING

 

It makes no difference what your going through,
You're going to make it, God's going to see you through.
Hold your head up, put a smile on your face,
This is another test, it won't last always
.

 

CHORUS
Get ready for your blessing,
Get ready for your miracle.
Get ready for your blessing,
Get ready for your miracle.

I know you've been hurting deep down inside,
Let me encourage you, it's going to be alright.
Troubles and trials come to make you strong,
Keep on believing, you keep holding on.

Repeat Chorus

God's got a blessing.
God's got a blessing.
God's got a blessing.
With your name on it.

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.
