Majesty

Majesty, worship His majesty; unto Jesus be all glory, honor, and praise.

Majesty, kingdom authority, flow from His throne unto His own; His anthem raise. So exalt, lift up on high the name of Jesus.

Magnify, come glorify Christ Jesus, the King. Majesty, worship His majesty, Jesus who died,

now glorified, King of all kings.

The Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth;

And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord: who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,

born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate,

was crucified, dead, and buried; the third day he rose from the dead;

he ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;

from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins,

the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

My Hope is Built

My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness. I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus’ name.

On Christ the solid rock I stand, All other ground is sinking sand; all other ground is sinking sand.

When He shall come with trumpet sound, O May I then in Him be found! Dressed in His righteousness alone, faultless to stand before the throne!

On Christ the solid rock I stand, All other ground is sinking sand; all other ground is sinking sand.
