Leadership [ Page Seven ] [Inserts] [ Heading 6 ] Crown Him With Many Crowns [ Verse 1 ] Crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon his throne, While heaven’s eternal anthem drowns all music but its own! Awake, my soul, and sing of him who died to be Your saviour and your matchless king through all eternity. [ Verse 2 ] Crown him the Lord of life triumphant from the grave, Who rose victorious from the strife for those he came to save: His glories now we sing who died and reigns on high; Who died eternal life to bring and lives that death may die. [ Verse 3 ] Crown him the Lord of love, who shows his hands and side Those wounds yet visible above in beauty glorified. No angel in the sky can fully bear the sight, But downward bends his burning eye at mysteries so bright. [ Verse 4 ] Crown him the Lord of peace, his kingdom is at hand; From pole to pole let warfare cease and Christ rule every land! A city stands on high, his glory it displays, And there the nations ’Holy’ cry in joyful hymns of praise. [ Verse 5 ] Crown him the Lord of years, the potentate of time, Creator of the rolling spheres in majesty sublime: All hail, Redeemer, hail, for you have died for me; Your praise shall never, never fail through all eternity! [ Heading 6.1 ] Call To Worship Leader: Jesus came, he said, so that people might have "abundant life," life lived to its fullest extent People: And we are called, as God’s people, to give ourselves to that kind of life, to allow our faith to reach to the very roots of our being, and fill our living with power. Leader: May our worship set us free and prepare us for that style of living. People: Let us worship God! [ Page Eight ] [ Heading 6.2 ] Meekness and Majesty [ Verse 1 ] Meekness and majesty, manhood and deity, In perfect harmony, the man who is God: Lord of eternity dwells in humanity, Kneels in humility and washes our feet. [ Refrain ] Chorus: Oh what a mystery, meekness and majesty: Bow down and worship, for this is your God, This is your God! [ Verse 2 ] Father’s pure radiance, perfect in innocence, Yet learns obedience to death on a cross: Suffering to give us life, conquering through sacrifice, And, as they crucify, prays, ’Father, forgive.’ [ Verse 3 ] Wisdom unsearchable, God the invisible, Love indestructible in frailty appears: Lord of infinity, stooping so tenderly, Lifts our humanity to the heights of his throne. [ Heading 6.3 ] There Is a Redeemer [ Verse 1 ] There is a Redeemer, Jesus, God’s own Son, Precious Lamb of God, Messiah, holy One. [ Refrain ] Chorus: Thank you, O my Father, for giving us your Son, And leaving your Spirit till the work on earth is done. [ Verse 2 ] Jesus, my Redeemer, name above all names, Precious Son of God, Messiah, Lamb for sinners slain: [ Verse 3 ] When I stand in glory I will see his face, And there I’ll serve my king forever in that holy place. [ Page Nine ] [ Heading 6.4 ] Responsive Psalm 67 Leader: O God, be gracious and bless us and let your face shed its light upon us. People: So will your ways be known upon the earth and all the nations learn your saving help. Leader: Let the peoples praise you, O God; People: Let all the peoples praise you. Leader: Let the nations be glad and exult, for you rule the world with justice. People: With fairness you rule the peoples, you guide the nations on earth. Leader: Let the peoples praise you, O God; People: Let all the peoples praise you. Leader: The earth has yielded its fruit, for God, our God, has blessed us. People: May God still give us his blessing till the ends of the earth revere him. [ Heading 6.5 ] All Hail The Power Of Jesus’ Name [Verse 1 ] All hail the power of Jesus’s name! Let kings before him fall, His might and majesty proclaim And crown him Lord of all. [ Verse 2 ] Come, crown him, moon and stars of night: He made you, great and small. Bright sun, praise him who gave light, And crown him Lord of all. [ Verse 3 ] Crown him, you martyrs spurning pain, Who witnessed to his call; Now sing your victory song again And crown him Lord of all. [ Verse 4 ] Let all who trust in Christ exclaim In wonder, to recall The one who bore our sin and shame, And crown him Lord of all. [ Page Ten ] [ Verse 5 ] Then in that final judgement hour When all rebellions fall, We’ll rise in his triumphant power And crown him Lord of all. [ Heading 6.6 ] May the Mind of Christ [ Verse 1 ] May the mind of Christ my saviour Live in me from day to day, By his love and power controlling All I do and say. [ Verse 2 ] May the word of God enrich me With his truth, from hour to hour; So that all may see I triumph Only through his power. [ Verse 3 ] May the peace of God my Father In my life for ever reign, That I may be calm to comfort Those in grief and pain. [ Verse 4 ] May the love of Jesus fill me As the waters fill the sea, Him exalting, self abasing This is victory! [ Verse 5 ] May his beauty rest upon me As I seek to make him known; So that all may look to Jesus, Seeing him alone. [ Page Eleven ] [ Heading 6.7 ] Christ Triumphant [ Verse 1 ] Christ triumphant, ever reigning, Saviour, Master, King! Lord of heaven, our lives sustaining, hear us as we sing. [ Refrain ] Chorus: Yours the glory and the crown, The high renown, the eternal name. [ Verse 2 ] Word incarnate, truth revealing, Son of Man on earth! Power and majesty concealing by your humble birth. [ Verse 3 ] Suffering servant, scorned, ill-treated, victim crucified! Death is through the cross defeated, sinners justified. [ Verse 4 ] Priestly king, enthroned for ever high in heaven above! Sin and death and hell shall never stifle hymns of love. [ Verse 5 ] So, our hearts and voices raising through the ages long. Ceaselessly upon you gazing this shall be our song.
