Day after day
Forever faithful towards me

BELIEVE FOR IT
They say this mountain can't be moved
They say these chains will never break
But they don't know You like we do
There is power in Your name
We've heard that there is no way through
We've heard the tide will never change
They haven't seen what You can do
There is power in Your name
So much power in Your name
CHORUS
Move the immovable
Break the unbreakable
God, we believe
God, we believe for it
From the impossible
We'll see a miracle
God, we believe
God, we believe for it
We know that hope is never lost
For there is still an empty grave
God, we believe, no matter what
There is power in Your name
So much power in Your name
REPEAT CHORUS
You are the way when there seems to be no way
We trust in You, God, You have the final say
You are the way when there seems to be no way
We trust in You, God, You have the final say
REPEAT CHORUS
God, we believe
God, we believe for it
NEVER WOULD HAVE MADE IT
Never would have made it
Never could have made it, without You
I would have lost it all
But now I see how You were there for me
And I can say
(repeat)
I'm stronger, I'm wiser
I'm better, much better
When I look back over all You brought me through
I can see that You were the one I held on to
And I never, never would have made it
REPEAT CHORUS
I am stronger, I am stronger
I am wiser, now I'm better
So much better
I made it through my storm
And my test because You were there
To carry me through my mess
I am stronger, I am stronger
I am wiser, now I'm better
So much better
I made it, I made it
I made it, I made it
I made it, I made it
I made it, I made it
REPEAT CHORUS
HE'S ABLE
Exceedingly, abundantly, above all you could ask or think
According to the power that works in you
God is able to do just what He said He would do
He's gonna fulfill every promise for you
Don't give up on God, 'cause He won't give up on you
He's able!
He's able!
VAMP 1
Whoa - oh - oh - oh - He's able!
VAMP 2
He's able!
HOLY COMMUNION
When we approach God's Holy Table, we do so with respect and reverence for who God is. It is not done with noise, commotion, moving around, or confusion. Please respect God by respecting His Holy Table.
CONFESSION OF FAITH
The church acknowledges as its head God, the Creator of all heaven and earth, Jesus Christ the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit, the Comforter. It acknowledges as brothers and sisters in Christ, all who share in this confession. It believes that all of those who are committed to building God's Kingdom and strive to keep His commandments are invited to partake of the Lord's Supper and that all such, with their families, are invited to the Ordinance of Baptism.
AFFIRMATION OF FAITH: “APOSTLES” CREED
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. On the third day, he arose from the dead; he ascended into heaven and sat on the right hand of God, the Father Almighty: from thence, he shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Church (universal), the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sin, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen!
THE LORD’S SUPPER
I Corinthians 11: 23 – 34
Minister: For I have received of the Lord that I also delivered unto you. That the Lord Jesus, the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread:
People: And when he had given thanks, he broke it and said Take eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
Minister: After the same manner, also he took the cup when he had supped, saying; this cup is the New Testament in my blood: this does ye, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
People: For as often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord’s death till he comes.
Minister: Wherefore, whosoever shall eat this bread and drink this cup of the Lord unworthily shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
People: But let a person examine themselves, and so let them eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
Minister: For they that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to themselves, not discerning the Lord’s body.
People: For this cause, many are weak in [Faith] and sick among you, and many sleep.
Minister: For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
People: But when we judge, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
Minister: Wherefore, my friends, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.
All: And if a person hungers, let them eat at home; that they come not together to this table, disregarding its purpose, and unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come
