4. How Firm a Foundation
Public Domain
How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word!
What more can He say than to you He hath said
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
My grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply.
The flames shall not hurt thee; I only design
Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine.
Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine.
Fear not, I am with thee, oh, be not dismayed,
For I am thy God and will still give thee aid;
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand.
Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand.
When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
For I will be with thee thy troubles to bless
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose
I will not, I will not, desert to his foes;
That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no never, no never, forsake!
I'll never, no never, no never, forsake!
6. Jochebed's Prayer
By Anna Stone 2011
Father, Father can you see him
Lying here upon my lap?
Olive skin, a fair complexion
Ringlet hair of darkest black
You sent my son
a balm to my soul,
Health to my bones
You gave him life
in these troubled times
and I cannot see why
But you will bend
Your ear to me
Sitting on Your throne
You'll hear my plea
I will extol Your holy name
God of my fathers, then as now
You are the same
Oh I will sing
Father, Father can you hear me?
My heart is torn in two
In a floating bed of reeds I've laid him
Released his care to you
I sent my son drifting down the Nile
A living, awful dream
He fades from view, tears fall from my eyes
My soul begins to scream
Lord, will you bend your ear to me?
Or sitting on your throne, can you hear my plea?
God of my fathers, then as now
I'll praise you through this storm of life somehow
Oh I will sing...
Oh I will sing
Father, Father can you see us?
Happy as a family once again
From Pharaoh's house You've led this baby
All according to your plan
You sent my son, back into my arms
A love-gift from Your hand
Our time is short, I thank you for this chance
To teach him of You LORD
For You have bent Your ear to me
Sitting on Your throne, You heard my plea
I will extol your holy name
God of my fathers, then as now You are the same
Please guide this infant as a man
God of my fathers, lead Your people from this land
Oh I will sing...
Oh I will sing...
Oh I will sing...
8. Amazing Grace
Public Domain
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.
When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.
9. The Depth of His Love
By Michael Stone
The depth of His love a crimson red
Poured forth from the Lamb instead
For our sins, the price He paid
On the cross, our judgement laid
The depth of His love the pilgrims price
when salvation's realized
the temple curtain's torn in two
there's fellowship for me and you
Oh fear you not (fear you not)
Fear you not (fear you not)
Says to you, the first and last
Life has won (life has won)
And death is past (death is past)
The keys of Hell are in His grasp
Hallelujah! Hosanna!
Even so amen!
The depth of His love we know within
From the Lord who bore our sins
He who died rose from the grave
Now He lives and longs to save!
Oh fear you not (fear you not)
Fear you not (fear you not)
Says to you, the first and last
Life has won (life has won)
And death is past (death is past)
The keys of Hell are in His grasp
Hallelujah! Hosanna!
Even so amen!
Oh fear you not (fear you not)
Fear you not (fear you not)
Says to you, the first and last
Life has won (life has won)
And death is past (death is past)
The keys of Hell are in His grasp
Hallelujah! Hosanna!
Even so amen!
Even so amen!
10. The Irish Blessing
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
The sun shine warm upon your face
The rain fall soft upon your head
And until we meet again may God, may God
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
Repeat
