Praise To The Lord The Almighty Lyrics

Verse 1

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation!
O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation!
All ye who hear, now to His temple draw near,
Join me in glad adoration.

Verse 2

Praise to the Lord, who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth,
Shelters thee under His wings, yea, so gently sustaineth!
Hast thou not seen how thy desires e’er have been
Granted in what He ordaineth?

chorus

Oh my soul, praise the Lord
Jesus Christ, our King!
Every heart come sing for joy
To Christ the Risen King!

Verse 3

Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy work and defend thee!
Surely His goodness and mercy here daily attend thee;
Ponder anew what the Almighty can do
If with His love He befriend thee.

Verse 4

Praise to the Lord, O let all that is in me adore Him!
All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before Him!
Let the amen sound from His people again;
Gladly forever adore Him.

Christ Our Wisdom Lyrics

LYRICS

Christ our wisdom, we are humbled

When You hide Your ways from us

You have purposes unnumbered

Each one good and glorious 

Help us trust when we grow weary 

Free us from our anxious thoughts 

Give us grace to see more clearly  

You are God and we are not    

Christ our wisdom, be our gladness

When we fail to understand

You ordain all joy and sadness

To fulfill Your perfect plan

Help us know You rule with power

Over every raging flood

In our most uncertain hour 

You are God and we are loved

Christ our wisdom, we will follow

Though the way ahead is veiled

As we journey through the shadows 

Grant us faith where sight has failed 

Help us cling to Your commandments 

Strengthened by Your faithful Word 

We will never be abandoned 

You are God and we are Yours  

Christ our wisdom we adore You

For the beauty of the cross

Once in foolishness we scorned You

But Your blood has ransomed us

Help us sing the endless mercies

Of Your humble heart to save 

Christ our wisdom, Christ our glory

You are God forever praised

Christ the Sure and Steady Anchor Lyrics

Verse 1

Christ the sure and steady anchor

In the fury of the storm

When the winds of doubt blow through me

And my sails have all been torn

Chorus 1

In the suffering in the sorrow

When my sinking hopes are few

I will hold fast to the anchor

It shall never be removed

Verse 2

Christ the sure and steady anchor

While the tempest rages on

When temptation claims the battle

And it seems the night has won

Chorus 2

Deeper still then goes the anchor

Though I justly stand accused

I will hold fast to the anchor

It shall never be removed

Verse 3

Christ the sure and steady anchor

Through the floods of unbelief

Hopeless somehow O my soul now

Lift your eyes to Calvary

Chorus 3

This my ballast of assurance

See His love forever proved

I will hold fast to the anchor

It shall never be removed

Verse 4

Christ the sure and steady anchor

As we face the wave of death

When these trials give way to glory

And we draw our final breath

Chorus 4

We will cross that great horizon

Clouds behind and life secured

And the calm will be the better

For the storms that we endured

Chorus 5

Christ the shore of our salvation

Ever faithful ever true

We will hold fast to the anchor

It shall never be removed

Great Is Thy Faithfulness Lyrics

VERSE 1
Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father
There is no shadow of turning with Thee
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be

CHORUS:
Great is Thy faithfulness, great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me

VERSE 2:
I could not love Thee, so blind and unfeeling;
Covenant promises fell not to me.
Then without warning, desire, or deserving,
I found my Treasure, my pleasure, in Thee.

VERSE 3:
I have no merit to woo or delight Thee,
I have no wisdom or pow’rs to employ;
Yet in thy mercy, how pleasing thou find’st me,
This is Thy pleasure: that Thou art my joy.

VERSE 4:
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today, and bright hope for tomorrow
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside.
