Preparation for Sunday, 5/2/2010
Song Preparation: I encourage you listen to these songs each week so that you are familiar with them by the time we sing on Sunday. I always find that becoming more familiar with the lyrics to a song gives me more freedom to be led by the Holy Spirit as I worship. We won’t play these song exactly as they sound below but this is a good start! I would encourage you to go to itunes or any other music download site and purchase these songs for your music library. That way you can spend more time listening to them and learning the lyrics!
Here is some scripture that goes well with the songs we will sing this Sunday. Greater than we can Imagine: Psalm 145:2-3; Lead me to the Cross: Luke 9:23; Thy Mercy: Psalm 145:8-9; Take my Life: Philippians 1:21; In My Place: 2 Corinthians 5:17-21, Romans 5:8-9.
Songs:
We will also say this reading together:
Christ is our Peace;
those who are divided he has made one.
He has broken down the barriers of seperation
by his death and has built us up
into one body, with God.
To all who repent and believe he has promised reconciliation.
The God who challenges us
is also the God who encourages us.
The God who confronts us
is also the God who accepts us.
We are assured that God is with us even now,
accepting, guiding, and forgiving.
Thanks be to God.
I look forward to worshipping with you this Sunday!
Ben
