Sunday Hymn: Christ, We Do All Adore Thee

 

 

 

 

Christ, we do all adore thee,
and we do praise thee forever.
Christ, we do all adore thee,
and we do praise thee forever,
for on the holy cross 
hast thou the world from sin redeemed.
Christ, we do all adore thee,
and we do praise thee forever.
Christ, we do all adore thee.

Sunday Hymn: Complete In Thee

 

 

 

 

Complete in Thee! No work of mine
May take, dear Lord, the place of Thine;
Thy blood hath par­don bought for me,
And I am now com­plete in Thee.

Complete in Thee! No more shall sin,
Thy grace hath con­quered, reign with­in;
Thy voice shall bid the tempt­er flee,
And I shall stand com­plete in Thee.

Complete in Thee—each want sup­plied,
And no good thing to me de­nied;
Since Thou my por­tion, Lord, wilt be,
I ask no more, com­plete in Thee.

Dear Sav­ior, when be­fore Thy bar
All tribes and tongues as­sem­bled are,
Among Thy chos­en will I be,
At Thy right hand, com­plete in Thee.

Sunday's Hymn: I Will Call Upon the Lord

 

 

 

 

 

I will call upon the Lord 
Who is worthy to be praised;
So shall I be saved from my enemies.

Refrain
The Lord liveth and blessed be my Rock
And let the God of my salvation be exalted!
The Lord liveth and blessed be my Rock
And let the God of my salvation be exalted!

I will look upon the Lord;
He is all my righteousness;
He will make his face to shine on me.

I will wait upon the Lord;
He will fill me with new strength;
I will fly with wings like an eagle.
 
Michael O’Shields
