Service Lyrics
Yes finished! The Messiah dies,
cut off for sins, but not his own;
completed is the sacrifice,
the great redeeming work is done.
Yes finished! All the debt is paid,
justice divine is satisfied,
the grand and full atonement made:
God for a guilty world has died!
Verse 2
The temple curtain is torn down,
the living way to heaven is seen;
through Christ, the middle wall has gone
and all who will may enter in.
The ancient shadows are fulfilled,
the law’s harsh sentence is applied,
the sinless Lamb of God is killed,
the covenant is ratified.
Verse 3
The reign of sin and death is done,
and all may live, from sin set free;
Satan and his pretended throne
are swallowed up in victory.
Saved from the curse of God I am;
my Saviour hangs upon a tree!
See there the meek and silent Lamb;
his final breath he breathes for me.
Verse 4
In Christ accepted and brought near
and clothed in righteousness divine,
I see the path to life made clear,
and all your merits, Lord, are mine.
Death, hell and sin are now subdued,
all grace is now to sinners given,
and so I plead the atoning blood
and by your gift, receive your heaven.
Facing a task unfinished
That drives us to our knees
A need that, undiminished
Rebukes our slothful ease
We, who rejoice to know Thee
Renew before Thy throne
The solemn pledge we owe Thee
To go and make Thee known
Verse 2
Where other lords beside Thee
Hold their unhindered sway
Where forces that defied Thee
Defy Thee still today
With none to heed their crying
For life, and love, and light
Unnumbered souls are dying
And pass into the night
Chorus
We go to all the world
With kingdom hope unfurled
No other name has power to save
But Jesus Christ The Lord
Verse 3
We bear the torch that flaming
Fell from the hands of those
Who gave their lives proclaiming
That Jesus died and rose
Ours is the same commission
The same glad message ours
Fired by the same ambition
To Thee we yield our powers
Verse 4
O Father who sustained them
O Spirit who inspired
Saviour, whose love constrained them
To toil with zeal untired
From cowardice defend us
From lethargy awake!
Forth on Thine errands send us
To labour for Thy sake
When peace, like a river,
attends all my way,
when sorrows like sea-billows roll,
whatever my lot,
you have taught me to say,
‘It is well, it is well with my soul.’
Chorus
‘It is well with my soul,
it is well, it is well
with my soul.’
Verse 2
Though Satan may buffet,
though trials may come,
let this calm assurance control:
that Christ knows my need
and my helplessness here
and has shed his own blood for my soul.
Verse 3
The joy, O the joy
of this glorious thought!
my sin, not in part but the whole,
is nailed to his cross
and I bear it no more;
praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
O my soul!
Verse 4
For me it is Christ,
it is Christ now to live!
Though death’s waters over me roll,
no fear shall be mine,
for in death as in life
you will whisper your peace
to my soul.
Verse 5
But, Lord, for your coming
in glory we wait;
the sky, not the grave, is our goal;
the trumpet shall sound
and the Lord shall descend:
bless the Lord, bless the Lord,
O my soul!
Prepare our hearts, O God
help us to receive;
break the hard and stony ground,
help our unbelief.
Plant your word down deep in us,
cause it to bear fruit;
open up our ears to hear,
lead us in your truth.
Chorus
Show us Christ, show us Christ
O God, reveal your glory
through the preaching of your word
until every heart confesses Christ is Lord
Verse 2
Your word is living light
upon our darkened eyes;
guards us through temptations,
makes the simple wise.
Your word is food for famished ones,
freedom for the slave,
riches for the needy soul;
come speak to us today
Bridge
Where else can we go, Lord
where else can we go;
you have the words of eternal life.
Tag
O God, reveal your glory
through the preaching of your word
until every heart confesses Christ is Lord
‘Jesus is Lord’ – the cry that echoes through creation;
resplendent power, eternal word, our rock.
The Son of God, the King whose glory fills the heavens,
yet bids us come to taste this living bread.
Verse 2
Jesus is Lord — whose voice sustains the stars and planets,
yet in his wisdom laid aside his crown.
Jesus the man, who washed our feet, who bore our suffering,
became a curse to bring salvation’s plan.
Verse 3
Jesus is Lord — the tomb is gloriously empty!
Not even death could crush this King of love!
The price is paid, the chains are loosed, and we’re forgiven,
and we can run into the arms of God.
Verse 4
‘Jesus is Lord’ — a shout of joy a cry of anguish,
as he returns, and every knee bows low.
Then every eye and every heart will see his glory,
the judge of all will take his children home.
