The Lamb has overcome The Lamb has overcome The battle’s done And the victory is won For the Lamb has overcome No grave could hold him down No grave could hold him down Up from the ground, “He is risen!” was the sound No grave could hold him down Worthy is the Lamb who was slain Glory be unto his name At God’s right hand is he At God’s right hand is he Our Perfect Plea, How he lives to intercede! At God’s right hand is he The table now is spread The table now is spread This wine and bread Broken body and blood shed The table now is spread Worthy is the Lamb who was slain Glory be unto his name The day is drawing near The day is drawing near He shall appear And will wipe away each tear The day is drawing near Worthy is the Lamb who was slain Glory be unto his name The Lamb has overcome The Lamb has overcome The battle’s done And the victory is won For the Lamb has overcome Luke Morton 2011

Glorious things of thee are spoken Zion City of our God. He whose word cannot be broken Formed thee for his own abode: On the Rock of Ages founded, Who can shake thy sure repose? With salvation’s walls surrounded, Thou may’st smile at all thy foes. See, the streams of living waters, Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove: Who can faint while such a river, Ever flows their thirst t’assuage? Grace which like the Lord, the giver, Never fails from age to age. Blest inhabitants of Zion, Washed in the Redeemer’s blood; Jesus whom their souls rely on, Makes them kings and priests to God: ‘Tis his love his people raises, Over self to reign as kings, And as priests his solemn praises Each for a thank off’ring brings. Saviour, if of Zion’s city, I, through grace, a member am, Let the world deride or pity, I will glory in thy name: Fading is the worldling’s pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show; Solid joys and lasting treasures None but Zion’s children know.

Comfort, comfort these my people, Speak of peace, thus says our God. Comfort these who sit in darkness Groaning under sin's dread rod. To my people I proclaim: Pardon now in Jesus' name! Tell them that their sins I cover, That their warfare now is over. Yes, our sins the Lord will pardon, Blotting out each dark misdead. All that well deserved His anger, He no more will see nor heed We who languished many a day Under guilt, now washed away We exchange our pining sadness For His comfort, peace and gladness Now the herald's voice is crying In the desert far and near, Calling us to true repentance For the kingdom now is here. O that warning cry obey! O, prepare for God a way; Let the valleys rise to meet Him Let the hills bow down to greet Him. Straight must be what long was crooked, Make the roughest places plain; Let your hearts be true and humble, Ready for His holy reign. Here the glory of the Lord Stands so graciously revealed And all people see the token That God's word is never broken.

When Christ’s appearing was made known King Herod trembled for his throne; But He who offers heav’nly birth Seeks not the kingdoms of this earth. The eastern sages saw from far And followed on His guiding star; But light their way to light they trod, And by their gifts confessed their God. Within the Jordan’s sacred flood The heav’nly lamb in meekness stood That He of whom no sin was known, Might cleanse his people from their own. And Oh, what miracle divine, When water reddened into wine! He spoke the word and forth it flowed In streams that nature ne’er bestowed. For this, His glad epiphany All glory unto Jesus be, Whom with the Father we adore, And Holy Ghost forevermore.

Praise the Lord, all ye servants of the Lord Who minister by night in the house of the Lord Lift your hands in the sanctuary Raise your voice in the sanctuary May the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth bless you from Zion

I know that my Redeemer lives, Glory, Hallelujah! What comfort this sweet sentence gives, Glory, Hallelujah! Chorus: Shout on, pray on, we’re gaining ground, Glory Hallelujah! The dead’s alive, and the lost is found, Glory Hallelujah! He lives, he lives who once was dead, Glory, Hellelujah! He lives, my everlasting head, Glory, Hallelujah! Chorus He lives to bless me with His love; Glory Hallelujah! He lives to plead for me above; Glory Hallelujah! Chorus He lives all glory to His Name; Glory Hallelujah! He lives my Jesus, still the same; Glory Hallelujah! Chorus He lives to crush the fiends of hell; Glory Hallelujah! He lives and doth within me dwell; Glory Hallelujah! Chorus

At the name of Jesus Every knee shall bow, Every tongue confess Him King of glory now; ’Tis the Father’s pleasure We should call Him Lord, Who from the beginning Was the mighty Word. Humbled for a season, To receive a name From the lips of sinners, Unto whom He came, Faithfully He bore it Spotless to the last, Brought it back victorious When from death He passed; Bore it up triumphant, With its human light, Through all ranks of creatures, To the central height, To the throne of Godhead, to the Father’s breast; Filled it with the glory Of that perfect rest. Christians, this Lord Jesus Shall return again, With His Father’s glory, O'er the earth to reign; For all wreaths of empire Meet upon His brow, And our hearts confess Him King of glory now.

Come, Oh come, O quick’ning Sprit, God before the dawn of time! Fire our hearts with holy ardor, Blessed comforter sublime! Let your radiance fill our night Turning darkness into light. Only that which you desire Be our object, with your hand Lead our every thought and action, Let the m be at Your command. All our sinfulness erase With the increase of Your grace. Blessed Spirit still renewing All who dwell upon the earth, When the evil one assails us, Help us prove our heav’nly birth; Arm us with Your mighty sword In the legions of the Lord. Help us keep the faith forever, Let not Satan, death, or shame Draw us from you or deprive us Of the honor of Your name. When the foe would lure us hence Be, O God, our sure defense.

Hail the blest morn, see the great mediator Down from the regions of glory descend. Shepherds go worship the babe in the manger Lo for His guard the bright angels attend Refrain: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning, Dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid; Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. Cold on his cradle the dewdrops are shining, Low lies his head with the beasts of the stall; Angels adore him in slumber reclining, Maker and Monarch, and Saviour of all. Refrain Shall we then yield him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom, and off’rings divine, Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, and gold from the mine? Refrain Vainly we offer each ample oblation, Vainly with gifts would his favor secure; Richer by far is the heart’s adoration, Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. Refrain

We bring you, Lord, our child, Reminder of Your love, To ask in faith and claim for him Your promise free By Grace forgiven, by Spirit renewed, Set apart as a member of Christ; Becoming dead to sin, yet alive in Christ! Renouncing evil pow’rs, And turning to Your grace, Protect her from all worldly harm, Still call him home! By Grace forgiven, by Spirit renewed, Set apart as a member of Christ; Becoming dead to sin, yet alive in Christ
