WE’VE COME THIS FAR BY FAITH
We’ve come this far by faith, leaning on the Lord,
Trusting in His holy Word, He's never failed me yet.
Oh, oh, oh, can't turn a-round,
We've come this far by faith.
Just the other day, I heard a man say
He didn't believe in God's -Word,
But I can truly say that I have found the way,
And He's never failed me yet.
Don't be discouraged
When troubles come your way.
He'll bear all your burdens,
And turn all your night into day.
HE HAS DONE GREAT THINGS
He has done great things for me
Great things, great things
He has done great things for me
He has made a way for me
Made a way, made a way
He has made a way for me
He will give you victory
Victory, victory
He will give you victory
I’m gonna be a witness for Him
Witness, witness
I’m gonna be a witness for Him
I’m gonna let my little light shine
Shine, shine
I’m gonna let my little light shine
HERE I AM TO WORSHIP
Light of the world, You stepped down into darkness
Open my eyes, let me see
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope for a life spent with Thee
Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You’re my God
You’re altogether lovely
Altogether worthy,
Altogether wonderful to me
King of all days, O so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came to the earth You created
All for love’s sake became poor
I’ll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
WAY MAKER
You are here, moving in our midst
I worship You, I worship You
You are here, working in this place
I worship You, I worship You

THE CENTER OF MY JOY
Jesus, you're the center of my joy
All that's good and perfect comes from you
You're the heart of my contentment, hope for all I do
Jesus, you're the center of my joy
When I've lost my direction, you're the compass for my way
You're the fire and light when nights are long and cold
In sadness, you are the laughter, that shatters all my fears
When I'm all alone, your hand is there to hold, ohh
Jesus, you're the center of my joy
All that's good and perfect comes from you
You're the heart of my contentment, hope for all I do
Jesus, you're the center of my joy
You are why I find pleasure in the simple things in life
You're the music in the meadows and the streams
The voices of the children, my family, and my home
You're the source and finish of my highest dreams, woah
Jesus, you're the center of my joy
All that's good and perfect comes from you
You're the heart of my contentment, hope for all I do
VAMP
Jesus (Jesus), you are (you are) the center (the center) of my joy
Woah, of my joy!
I GIVE MYSELF AWAY
I give myself away. I give myself away so You can use me
I give myself away. I give myself away so You can use me
Here I am, here I stand
Lord, my life is in your hands
Lord, I'm longing to see
Your desires revealed in me
Take my heart, take my life
As a living sacrifice
All my dreams all my plans
Lord I place them in your hands
My life is not my own
To you I belong
I give myself, I give myself to you

Matthew 11:20-2; Acts 19:11; Acts 12:28; 1 Corinthians 12:28; Hebrews 2:4
God is doing a new thing and taking us to a new level. He calls us to seek Him and will do miracles in our midst. This year we are praying for miracles in our lives, the lives of our families, and our Church family. As we pray and seek His face, we are going to give God Majestic Praise along the way. The songwriters said: I seek a miracle every day and I want to Praise Him.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT STUDY: NEW BOOK OF STUDY
Since Wednesday, May 17th, we have started the study of 1 Kings. The study picks up with David making Solomon king to succeed him on the throne. Solomon had mixed results, with his wealth and wisdom being known worldwide. He built palaces and cities, and a beautiful temple.-The house of the Lord did not match. But while on the throne, he also allowed idol worship to creep into the kingdom. And after his death, a civil war tore the nation in two. Successive kings were mainly terrible, and the prophet Elijah had dramatic confrontations with King Ahab, who could forget Jezebel on the scene. Join us Wednesday nights at 7:30 pm.
