Preparation for Sunday, 5/30/2010
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. Blessed be your Name: Psalm 8:1, Job 1:21b; Refuge: Psalm 34:8, 36:7, 62:8; Cannons: Psalm 99:9; How deep the Father’s Love: Romans 8:37-39.
Songs:
We will also say this prayer together.
Almighty God,
to you all hearts are open, all desires known,
and from you no secrets are hid.
You send us the Spirit of courage,
but we have been afraid.
You send us the Spirit of truth,
but we cling to our illusions and lies.
You send us the Spirit of healing,
but we cannot let go of our hurts.
Holy Spirit of forgiveness, come to us again:
shake our hearts,
set our souls on fire with your love:
Help us to rejoice in your power and live in the love of Christ Jesus, The Son.
In His Name we ask, Amen.
See ya Sunday!
Ben
