Verses: Sir Henry Williams Baker (1868)
Chorus and Music: Stu Garrard, Stephanie Kulla, Matthew Hein, Adam Palmer & Jonathan Lindley Smith

Verse 1
The King of Love my Shepherd is,
Whose goodness faileth never.
I nothing lack if I am His,
And He is mine forever.

Verse 2
Where streams of living water flow,
My ransomed soul He leadeth;
And where the verdant pastures grow,
With food celestial feedeth.

Chorus
Never failing, Ruler of my heart.
Everlasting, Lover of my soul!
On the mountain high or in the valley low,
The King of Love my Shepherd is!
The King of Love my Shepherd is!

Verse 3
Lost and foolish, oft I strayed,
But yet in love He sought me;
And on His shoulder gently laid,
And home, rejoicing, brought me.

Verse 4
In death’s dark vale I fear no ill,
With Thee, dear Lord, beside me;
Thy rod and staff my comfort still,
Thy cross before to guide me.

Chorus
Never failing, Ruler of my heart!
Everlasting, Lover of my soul!
On the mountain high or in the valley low,
The King of Love my Shepherd is!

Never failing, Ruler of my heart.
Everlasting, Lover of my soul!
On the mountain high or in the valley low,
The King of Love my Shepherd is!
The King of Love my Shepherd is!

Verse 5
So through all the length of days,
Thy goodness faileth never;
Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise,
Within Thy house forever.
Within Thy house forever.

Praise the Savior, You Who Know Him

509

Words: Thomas Kelly 1806
Music: Traditional German Melody

Verse 1
Praise the Savior, you who know Him!
Who can tell how much we owe Him?
Gladly let us render to Him
All we are and have.

Verse 2
Jesus is the name that charms us;
He for conflict fits and arms us;
Nothing moves and nothing harms us
While we trust in Him.

Trust in Him, you saints, forever;
He is faithful, changing never;
Neither force nor guile can sever
Those He loves from Him.

Keep us, Lord, O keep us cleaving
To Thyself and still believing,
Till the hour of our receiving
Promised joys with Thee.

Verse 5
Then we shall be where we would be,
Then we shall be what we should be;
Things that are not now, nor could be,
Soon shall be our own.

Every Promise of Your Word

Keith Getty and Stuart Townend

Verse 1
From the breaking of the dawn
To the setting of the sun,
I will stand on every promise of Your Word.
Words of power, strong to save,
That will never pass away,
I will stand on every promise of Your Word.
For Your covenant is sure,
And on this I am secure
I can stand on every promise of Your Word.

Verse 2
When I stumble and I sin,
Condemnation pressing in,
I will stand on every promise of Your Word.
You are faithful to forgive
That in freedom I might live,
So I stand on every promise of Your Word.
Guilt to innocence restored,
You remember sins no more
So I’ll stand on every promise of Your Word.

Verse 3
When I’m faced with anguished choice,
I will listen for Your voice,
And I’ll stand on every promise of Your Word.
Through this dark and troubled land
You will guide me with Your hand
As I stand on every promise of Your Word.
And You’ve promised to complete
Every work begun in me
So I’ll stand on every promise of Your Word.

Verse 4
Hope that lifts me from despair,
Love that casts out every fear,
As I stand on every promise of Your Word.
Not forsaken, not alone,
For the Comforter has come,
And I stand on every promise of Your Word.
Grace sufficient, grace for me,
Grace for all who will believe
We will stand on every promise of Your Word.

Come All Christians Be Committed

Download
1175

Eva B. Lloyd, 1966

Verse 1
Come, all Christians, be committed
To the service of the Lord.
Make your lives for Him more fitted;
Tune your hearts with one accord.
Come into His courts with gladness;
Each his sacred vows renew.
Turn away from sin and sadness;
Be transformed with life anew.

Verse 2
Of your time and talents give Him-
They are gifts from God above
To be used by Christians freely
To proclaim His wondrous love.
Come again to serve the Savior;
Tithes and off’rings with you bring.
In your work, with Him find favor,
And with joy His praises sing.

Verse 3
God’s command to love each other
Is required of ev’ry one.
Showing mercy to each other
Mirrors His redeeming Son.
In compassion He has given
Of His love that is divine.
On the cross sins were forgiven;
Joy and peace are fully thine.

Verse 4
Come in praise and adoration,
All who on Christ’s name believe.
Worship Him with consecration;
Grace and love will you receive.
For His grace give Him the glory,
For the Spirit and the Word;
And repeat the Gospel story
Till the world His Name has heard.

The Master Has Come

Download
648

Sarah Doudney, 1811-1920

Verse 1
The Master has come
And He calls us to follow
The track of His footprints
He leaves on our way;

Far over the mountain
And through the deep hollow,
The path leads us on
To the eternal day:

The Master has called us,
The children who fear Him,
Who march ‘neath Christ’s banner
His own little flock;

We love Him and seek Him,
We long to be near Him,
And rest in the strength
Of this unyielding Rock.

Verse 2
The Master has called us
To walk in the valleys,
The shadow of death
And the evil so near;

But God who does lead us
To feed in green meadows,
We hear His rejoicing
That brings us to cheer.

The Master has called us,
We run hard to hold Him,
And cling to our Shepherd,
Who stands as our King;

Defends us and helps us,
Our hearts now adoring,
We’ll pass thru this valley
And shout as we sing.

Verse 3
The Master has called us
To live for His glory,
To tell of His mercy
And wonderful grace;

Salvation, revelation,
Redeemed is our story,
He seeks us and finds us
And quickens our pace.

The Master has called us
And love is His banner,
The sheep of His pasture
The chosen in Him;

Our bondage is broken,
Our enemies fallen,
We’ll march on victorious
Thru God we shall win.

Verse 4
The Master has called us
The road may be dreary;
And dangers and demons
May form their attack;

Press onward, look upward
Through much tribulation,
We follow the Savior
And cannot turn back.

The Master has called us
A people most favored,
To ever move forward
And never retreat;

So work on dear brethren
Till we rest from labor,
When we’re in the presence
Of Jesus so sweet.

What Grace is Mine

1209

Kieth and Kristyn Getty
Music: Traditional Irish melody: Londonderry Air
Arranged Rob Mathes

Verse 1
What grace is mine, that He who dwells in endless light
Called through the night to find my distant soul.
And from His scars poured mercy that would plead for me
That I might live and in His Name be known.

Chorus
So I will go wherever He is calling me;
I lose my life to find my life in Him.
I give my all to gain the hope that never dies;
I bow my heart, take up my cross, and follow Him.

Verse 2
What grace is mine, to know His breath alive in me;
beneath His wings my weary soul may soar.
All fear can flee for death’s dark night is overcome;
My Savior lives and reign forever more.

Chorus
So I will go where ever He is calling me;
I lose my life to find my life in Him.
I give my all to gain the hope that never dies;
I bow my heart, take up my cross, and follow Him.
