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.
