Count Your Blessings ~ Hymn #563

When upon life's billows you are tempest tossed, when you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,

Count your many blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

Refrain:

Count your blessings, name them one by one; count your blessings, see what God hath done;

Count your blessings, name them one by one; count your many blessings see what God hath done.

Are you ever burdened with a load of care? Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear? Count your many blessings, ev'ry doubt will fly, and you will be singing as the days go by.

~ refrain

When you look at others with their lands and gold, think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold Count your many blessings, money cannot buy your reward in heaven, nor your home on high.

~ refrain

So, amid the conflict, whether great or small, do not be discouraged, God is over all;

Count your many blessings, angels will attend, help and comfort give you to your journey's end.

~ refrain                 Author: Johnson Oatman (1897) Tune: BLESSINGS (Excell)

Colossians 3:1-5a

If you then be raised with Christ, seek those things that are above

Where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God.

Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth,

For you died and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

When Christ, who is our life, appears, then you will appear with Him in glory.

Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth.  ~ (repeat song)

Daniel 2:20-23 ~ Let the Name of GOD be Blessed Forever and Ever

Let the name of God be blessed forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to Him. 

It is He who changes the times, it is He who changes the epochs;

He removes kings and establishes kings; He gives wisdom to wise men

And knowledge to men of understanding.

It is He, it is He, who reveals the profound and hidden things;

He knows, He knows, what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with Him.

Chorus:        To Thee, O God of my fathers, I will give thanks and praise,

For Thou hast given me wisdom, for Thou hast given me power.

~ repeat whole song, then chorus twice; then ending:  For Thou hast given me salvation.

All the Way My Savior Leads Me ~ Hymn #460

All the way my Savior leads me; what have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt His tender mercy, who thru life has been my guide?
Heav’nly peace, divinest comfort, here by faith in Him to dwell!
For I know whate’er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well;
For I know whate’er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well.

All the way my Savior leads me;, cheers each winding path I tread,
Gives me grace for ev;ry trial, feeds me with the living bread;
Tho my weary steps may falter, and my soul athirst may be,
Gushing from the Rock before me, Lo! a spring of joy I see;
Gushing from the Rock before me, Lo! a spring of joy I see.

All the way my Savior leads me; Oh, the fullness of His love!
Perfect rest to me is promised in my Father’s house above;
When my spirit, cloth'd, immortal, wings its flight to realms of day,
This my song thru endless ages: Jesus led me all the way;
This my song thru endless ages: Jesus led me all the way.

Beneath the Cross of Jesus ~ Hymn #183

Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand --

The shadow of a mighty rock within a weary land;

A home within the wilderness, a rest upon the way,

From the burning of the noontide heat, and the burden of the day.

Upon that cross of Jesus mine eye at times can see

The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me;

And from my smitten heart with tears two wonders I confess--

The wonders of redeeming love and my unworthiness.

I take, O cross, thy shadow for my abiding place;

I ask no other sunshine than the sunshine of His face;

Content to let the world go by, to know no gain nor loss,

My sinful self my only shame, my glory all the cross.

Thy Word

Chorus:        Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path  ~ (2xs)

When I feel afraid, think I’ve lost my way, still You’re there right beside me.

Nothing will I fear as long as You are near.  Please be near me to the end.  ~ (chorus)

I will not forget Your love for me, and yet, my heart forever is wandering.

Jesus be my guide and hold me to Your side.  I will love You to the end.

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path  ~ (2xs)

You’re the light unto my path.  You’re the light unto my path.

All Glory Laud And Honor ~ Hymn #173

All glory laud and honor To Thee, Redeemer King,

To whom the lips of children Made sweet hosannas ring;

Thou art the King of Israel, Thou David's royal Son,

Who in the Lord's name comest, The King and Blessed One!

The company of angels Are praising Thee on high,

And mortal men and all things created make reply:

The people of the Hebrews With palms before Thee went:

Our praise and prayer and anthems Before Thee we present.

To Thee, before Thy passion, They sang their hymns of praise;

To Thee, now high exalted, Our melody we raise:

Thou didst accept their praises – Accept the praise we bring,

Who in all good delightest, Thou good and gracious King!  Amen.
