Worship Text for Sunday, February 19, 2017
Anticipating Next Sunday
But I cry out in distress to the God who is enthroned forever that the unrepentant would surrender to Him!

How do we cry out to the Lord when we lose Christian friends over extremely important moral issues?
Psalm 55:12-23 (NIV84)
12 If an enemy were insulting me, I could endure it; if a foe were raising himself against me, I could hide from him.
13 But it is you, a man like myself, my companion, my close friend, 14 with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship as we walked with the throng at the house of God.
15 Let death take my enemies by surprise; let them go down alive to the grave, for evil finds lodging among them.
16 But I call to God, and the Lord saves me. 17 Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and He hears my voice. 18 He ransoms me unharmed from the battle waged against me, even though many oppose me. 19 God, who is enthroned forever, will hear them and afflict them—Selah – men who never change their ways and have no fear of God.
20 My companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant. 21 His speech is smooth as butter, yet war is in his heart; his words are more soothing than oil, yet they are drawn swords.
22 Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall.
23 But You, O God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of corruption; bloodthirsty and deceitful men will not live out half their days.
But as for me, I trust in You.

My Jesus, my Savior, Lord, there is none like You.
All of my days I want to praise the wonders of Your mighty love.
My Comfort, my shelter, Tower of refuge and strength.
Let every breath, all that I am never cease to worship You.
Shout to the Lord - all the earth let us sing.
Power and majesty, praise to the King.
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar
at the sound of Your name.
I sing for joy at the work of Your hand.
Forever I’ll love You; forever I’ll stand.
Nothing compares to the promise I have in You.
Power of Your Love

Lord, I come to You. Let my heart be changed, renewed,
flowing from the grace that I found in You.
Lord, I’ve come to know the weaknesses I see in me
will be stripped away by the power of Your love.
Hold me close; let Your love surround me.
Bring me near, draw me to Your side,
and as I wait I’ll rise up like the eagle
and I will soar with You.
Your Spirit leads me on by the power of Your love.
Lord, unveil my eyes. Let me see You face to face!
The knowledge of Your love as You live in me.
Lord, renew my mind, as Your will unfolds in my life.
In living every day by the power of Your love.
We Fall Down

We fall down, we lay our crowns at the feet of Jesus.
The greatness of mercy and love at the feet of Jesus.
We cry, “Holy, Holy, Holy!”
We cry, “Holy, Holy, Holy!”
We cry, “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lamb!”
