WORSHIP SONGS AND HYMNS

Jesus, What a Friend for Sinners Jesus! What a friend for sinners!

Jesus! Lover of my soul;

Friends may fail me, foes assail me,

He, my Savior, makes me whole.

Chorus

Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Hallelujah! What a friend!

Saving, helping, keeping, loving,

He is with me to the end.

Jesus! What a strength in weakness!

Let me hide myself in Him;

Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing,

He, my strength, my victory wins.

Jesus! What a help in sorrow!

While the billows over me roll,

Even when my heart is breaking,

He, my comfort, helps my soul.

I Surrender All All to Jesus I surrender, all to Him I freely give;

I will ever love and trust Him, in His presence daily live.

Chorus

I surrender all, I surrender all.

All to Thee, my blessed Savior, I surrender all.

All to Jesus I surrender, humbly at His feet I bow,

Worldly pleasures all forsaken, take me, Jesus, take me now.

All to Jesus I surrender, Lord, I give myself to Thee;

Fill me with Thy love and power, touch this broken world through me.

WORSHIP SONGS AND HYMNS

I Love to Tell the Story I love to tell the story of unseen things above,

Of Jesus and His glory, of Jesus and His love.

I love to tell the story because I know ‘tis true.

It satisfies my longings as nothing else can do.

Chorus I love to tell the story! ‘Twill be my theme in glory

To tell the old, old story of Jesus and His love.

I love to tell the story; ‘tis pleasant to repeat

What seems each time I tell it, more wonderfully sweet.

I love to tell the story, for some have never heard

The message of salvation from God’s own holy Word.

I love to tell the story, for those who know it best

Seem hungering and thirsting to hear it like the rest.

And when, in scenes of glory, I sing the new, new song,

‘Twill be the old, old story that I have loved so long.

Shine, Jesus, Shine Lord, the light of Your love is shining, in the midst of the darkness shining;

Jesus, Light of the world, shine upon us, set us free by the truth You now bring us;

Shine on me. Shine on me.

Chorus

Shine Jesus, shine, fill this land with the Father’s glory;

Blaze, Spirit, blaze, set our hearts on fire.

Flow, river, flow, flood the nations with grace and mercy;

Send forth Your Word, Lord, and let there be light.

Lord, I come to Your awesome presence, from the shadows into Your radiance;

By the blood I may enter Your brightness; search me, try me, consume all my darkness;

Shine on me. Shine on me.

As we gaze on Your kingly brightness, so our faces display Your likeness,

Ever changing from glory to glory; mirrored here, may our lives tell Your story;

Shine on me. Shine on me.
