Lyrics: 1 The love of God is greater far than tongue or pen can ever tell; it goes beyond the highest star, and reaches to the lowest hell. The wand'ring child is reconciled by God's beloved Son. The aching soul again made whole, and priceless pardon won. Refrain: O love of God, how rich and pure! How measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure— the saints’ and angels’ song. 2 When ancient time shall pass away, and human thrones and kingdoms fall; when those who here refuse to pray on rocks and hills and mountains call; God’s love so sure, shall still endure, all measureless and strong; grace will resound the whole earth round— the saints’ and angels’ song. [Refrain] 3 Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made; were ev’ry stalk on earth a quill, and ev’ryone a scribe by trade; to write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry; nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky. [Refrain] Scripture: Romans 8:35-39 Tune Title: LOVE OF GOD

I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day. The moon shines full at God’s command and all the stars obey. 2 I sing the goodness of the Lord, that filled the earth with food. God formed the creatures with a word, and then pronounced them good. Lord, how thy wonders are displayed, where’er I turn my eye, if I survey the ground I tread, or gaze upon the sky! 3 There’s not a plant or flow’r below, but makes thy glories known, and clouds arise, and tempests blow, by order from thy throne. While all that borrows life from thee is ever in thy care, there’s not a place where we can flee but God is present there. Scripture: Genesis 1 Tune Title: ELLACOMBE

Bless’d Be the God of Israel

Author: Michael A. Perry Hymnal: Voices Together #223 (2020) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Confessing Faith Lyrics: 1 Bless’d be the God of Israel, who comes to set us free, who visits and redeems us, and grants us liberty! The prophets spoke of mercy, of freedom and release, God shall fulfill the promise to bring our people peace. 2 Now from the house of David a child of grace is giv’n, a Savior comes among us to raise us up to heav’n. Before him goes the herald, forerunner in the way, the prophet of salvation, the harbinger of day. 3 On all by death imprisoned the sun begins to rise, the dawning of forgiveness upon the sinner’s eyes, to guide the feet of pilgrims along the paths of peace. Oh, bless our God and Savior with songs that never cease! Scripture: Psalm 146:5-9 Tune Title: WEBB
