This Week
Scripture Memory
Pray for the Church
Praise God for the gift of His Word, the Bible. Ask God to continue to develop within us and grow a passion for Scripture. Pray for the Holy Spirit to recall to our minds Scriptures we have studied which will help us in our battles against sin. Ask God to grant us greater insight into and understanding of His Word for our own edification as well as the benefit of others as we proclaim and reteach it. Pray for the discipline to make our own reading of, study of, and reflection upon God's Word a priority in our daily lives. Pray the result of our time with the Bible to be a more fervent love of it and dedication to it.

Hallelujah for the Cross
Verse 1
Up to the hill of Calvary
My Savior went courageously
And there He bled and died for me
Hallelujah for the cross
And on that day the world was changed
A final perfect lamb was slain
Let earth and heaven now proclaim
Hallelujah for the cross
Chorus
Hallelujah for the war He fought
Love has won death has lost
Hallelujah for the souls He bought
Hallelujah for the cross
Verse 2
What good I've done could never save
My debt too great for deeds to pay
But God my Savior made a way
Hallelujah for the cross
A slave to sin my life was bound
But all my chains fell to the ground
When Jesus' blood came flowing down
Hallelujah for the cross
Verse 3
And when I breathe my final breath
I'll have no need to fear that rest
This hope will guide me into death
Hallelujah for the cross

The highest name of all
You're all You say You are

To judge the living and the dead

In Christ Alone
Verse 1
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light my strength my song
This Cornerstone this solid Ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love what depths of peace
When fears are stilled when strivings cease
My Comforter my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
Verse 2
In Christ alone who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
Till on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
Verse 3
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
Verse 4
No guilt in life no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
Bridge
I find my strength I found my hope
I find my help in Christ alone
When fear assails when darkness falls
I found my peace in Christ alone
I give my life I give my all
I sing my song to Christ alone
The King of Kings the Lord of Lords
All heaven sings to Christ alone
To Christ alone
To Christ alone
Saviour King

And I'm more than blessed

A fire consuming all for Your Son's holy Name

Let now Your church shine as the bride
That You saw in Your heart

By the saved and redeemed
Those adopted as Your own

You asked Your Son to carry this
The heavy cross
Our weight of sin
