Worship
I see the King of glory, Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes, The whole earth shakes yeah
I see His love and mercy, Washing over all our sin
The people sing, The people sing
Hosanna hosanna, Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna hosanna, Hosanna in the highest.
I see a generation, Rising up to take their place
With selfless faith, With selfless faith
I see a near revival, Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees, We're on our knees
Hosanna hosanna, Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna hosanna, Hosanna in the highest.
Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like You have loved me
Break my heart for what breaks Yours
Everything I am for Your Kingdom's cause
As I walk from earth into eternity
PRAISE IS RISING, eyes are turning to You, We turn to You. Hope is stirring, hearts are yearning for You, We long for You. ’Cause when we see You, we find strength to face the day; In Your presence all our fears are washed away, Washed away. Hosanna, hosanna, You are the God who saves us,
Worthy of all our praises. Hosanna, hosanna,
Come, have Your way among us; We welcome You here, Lord Jesus.
Hear the sound of hearts returning to You, We turn to You.
In Your kingdom broken lives are made new, You make all things new.
Be high and lifted up, Be high and lifted up
Be high and lifted up, Jesus,
Its you we glorify, It’s you we’re lifting high, Your name be glorified
Hallelujah, hallelujah, You are worthy, of our praise, Hallelujah, hallelujah
You are worthy, of our praise.
Sermon
FROM HEAVEN YOU CAME, Helpless babe, Entered our world,
Your glory veiled; Not to be served, But to serve,
And give Your life, That we might live.
Chorus
This is our God, The Servant King, He calls us now
To follow Him, To bring our lives, As a daily offering
Of worship to, The Servant King.
There in the garden, Of tears, My heavy load
He chose to bear; His heart with sorrow, Was torn,
‘Yet not My will, But Yours,’ He said.
Chorus
Come see His hands, And His feet, The scars that speak
Of sacrifice; Hands that flung stars, Into space, To cruel nails, Surrendered.
Chorus
So let us learn, How to serve, And in our lives, Enthrone Him;
Each other’s needs, To prefer, For it is Christ, We’re serving.
Chorus
OH KNEEL ME DOWN AGAIN, Here at Your feet;
Show me how much You love humility. Oh Spirit, be the star that leads me to
The humble heart of love I see in You.
You are the God of the broken, The friend of the weak;
You wash the feet of the weary, Embrace the ones in need.
I want to be like You, Jesus, To have this heart in me.
You are the God of the humble, You are the humble King.
