I AM ON THE BATTTLEFIELD
Chorus
I am on the battlefield for my Lord,
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord;
And I promised Him that I would serve Him till I die.
I am on the battlefield for my Lord.
I was alone and idle,
I was a sinner too,
I heard a voice from heaven
Say there is work to do,
I took the Master's hand,
And I joined the Christian band,
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord. [Chorus]
I left my friends and kindred
Bound for the Promised Land,
The grace of God upon me,
The Bible in my hand,
In distant lands I trod,
Crying, sinner, come to God,
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord. [Chorus]
Now when I met my Savior,
I met Him with a smile,
He healed my wounded spirit,
And owned me as His child,
Around the throne of grace,
He appoints my soul a place,
I'm on the battlefield for my Lord. [Chorus]
I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS
I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
No turning back, no turning back
Though none go with me, still I will follow . . .
The world behind me, the cross before me . .
BE RIGHT
When you see me singing my song,
(I just want to be right)
When you see me walking along,
(I just want to be right)
Chorus
Right, I just wanna be right
Right, I just wanna be right
Right, I just wanna be right
Right, I just wanna be right
When you see me singing,
(I just want to be right)
When you see me testifying,
(I just want to be right)
When you see me giving God the praise,
(I just want to be right)
When you see me worshiping the Lord,
(I just want to be right)
Repeat Chorus
Vamp
Be right,
Be right,
Be right,
I wanna be right
Right, I just wanna be right
Right, I just wanna be right

Join Pastor Lloyd for Wednesday in the Word
We are studying the book of II 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.

Fire Drill Procedure
Immediately after service TODAY we will have a fire drill to make sure that we are all aware of the procedures in the event of an emergency in the church. Please read below what the evacuation process is in advance.
GFCC Evacuation Procedures (Fire Drills) During the Service
Under no circumstances is the elevator to be used in a fire emergency
1. Directions will be given from the pulpit (by the presiding minister) for the congregation to exit the building.
2. Ushers are to station themselves at each exit door to assist individuals in exiting the sanctuary.
3. Deacons are to assist individuals in exiting the building, as well as check restrooms and parenting room.
4. The Security Team will make sure that everyone on the lower level and mezzanine level has exited; this will involve checking all classrooms, restrooms, officers, stairwells, hallways, and the kitchen. When exiting it should be through the three lower level exits that lead to the outside of the building, and NOT the internal stairwells leading to the upper mezzanine level or stairs leading to the basement level.
