  • Welcome and Prayer - Chuck Williams


    Fellowship - "Shine, Jesus, Shine"

    Lord, the light of Your love is shining

    In the midst of the darkness shining

    Jesus, Light of the world, shine upon us

    Set us free by the truth You now bring us

    Shine on me

    Shine on me


    Shine, Jesus, shine,

    Fill this land with the Father's glory

    Blaze, Spirit, blaze,

    Set our hearts on fire


    Flow, river, flow,

    Flood the nations with grace and mercy

    Send forth Your Word,

    Lord, and let there be light

  • "Great are You, Lord"   

    You give life, You are love, You bring light to the darkness

    You give hope, You restore every heart that is broken

    And great are You, Lord


    It's Your breath in our lungs

    So we pour out our praise, we pour out our praise

    It's Your breath in our lungs

    So we pour out our praise to You only

    Great are You, Lord


    (Repeat All)


    And all the earth will shout Your praise

    Our hearts will cry these bones will sing

    Great are You Lord

    (repeat)


    It's Your breath in our lungs

    So we pour out our praise, we pour out our praise

    It's Your breath in our lungs

    So we pour out our praise to You only

    (repeat)


    Great are You, Lord

    Great are You, Lord

    "Hymn of Heaven" 

    How I long to breathe the air of Heaven

    Where pain is gone and mercy fills the streets

    To look upon the One who bled to save me

    And walk with Him for all eternity


    There will be a day when all will bow before Him

    There will be a day when death will be no more

    Standing face to face with He who died and rose again

    Holy, holy is the Lord


    And every prayer we prayed in desperation

    The songs of faith we sang through doubt and fear

    In the end, we'll see that it was worth it

    When He returns to wipe away our tears


    There will be a day when all will bow before Him

    There will be a day when death will be no more

    Standing face to face with He who died and rose again

    Holy, holy is the Lord


    And on that day, we join the resurrection

    And stand beside the heroes of the faith

    With one voice, a thousand generations

    Sing, "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain"


    And on that day, we join the resurrection

    And stand beside the heroes of the faith

    With one voice, a thousand generations

    Sing, "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,

    Forever He shall reign"


    So let it be today we shout the hymn of heaven

    With angels and the saints, we raise a mighty roar

    Glory to our God who gave us life beyond the grave

    Holy, holy is the Lord

    (repeat)


    Holy, holy is the Lord

    Holy, holy is the Lord
