Wonderful Grace Ambassador Hymnal #549

Wonderful grace of Jesus, Greater than all my sin; How shall my tongue describe it, Where shall its praise begin? Taking away my burden, Setting my spirit free, For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.

Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus, Refrain: Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus, Deeper than the mighty rolling sea; Higher than the mountain, sparkling like a fountain, All-sufficient grace for even me;

Broader than the scope of my transgressions, Greater far than all my sin and shame; O magnify the precious name of Jesus, Praise His name!

Wonderful grace of Jesus, Reaching to all the lost, By it I have been pardoned, Saved to the uttermost; Chains have been torn asunder, Giving me liberty, For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.

Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus, Refrain: Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus, Deeper than the mighty rolling sea; Higher than the mountain, sparkling like a fountain, All-sufficient grace for even me;

Broader than the scope of my transgressions, Greater far than all my sin and shame; O magnify the precious name of Jesus, Praise His name!

Wonderful grace of Jesus, Reaching the most defiled, By its transforming power Making him God’s dear child, Purchasing peace and heaven For all eternity— And the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.

Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus, Refrain: Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus, Deeper than the mighty rolling sea; Higher than the mountain, sparkling like a fountain, All-sufficient grace for even me;

Broader than the scope of my transgressions, Greater far than all my sin and shame; O magnify the precious name of Jesus, Praise His name!

2 Samuel 12:1-8 Romans 9:10-20 John 17:1-5

Apostles’ Creed p. 4 in Ambassador Hymnal 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; He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead;…

Apostles’ Creed p. 4 in Ambassador Hymnal …He ascended into heaven; And is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; From where He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit; The holy Christian Church, the Communion of Saints; the Forgiveness of sins; The Resurrection of the body, and the Life everlasting, Amen.

He Hideth My Soul Ambassador Hymnal #571

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord, A wonderful Savior to me; He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock, Where rivers of pleasure I see.

He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock Refrain: He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock That shadows a dry, thirsty land; He hideth my life in the depths of His love, And covers me there with His hand, And covers me there with His hand.

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord— He taketh my burden away; He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved, He giveth me strength as my day.

He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock Refrain: He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock That shadows a dry, thirsty land; He hideth my life in the depths of His love, And covers me there with His hand, And covers me there with His hand.

With numberless blessings each moment He crowns, And, filled with His fullness divine, I sing in my rapture, “O glory to God For such a Redeemer as mine!”

He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock Refrain: He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock That shadows a dry, thirsty land; He hideth my life in the depths of His love, And covers me there with His hand, And covers me there with His hand.

When clothed in His brightness transported I rise To meet Him in clouds of the sky, His perfect salvation, His wonderful love, I’ll shout with the millions on high.

He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock Refrain: He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock That shadows a dry, thirsty land; He hideth my life in the depths of His love, And covers me there with His hand, And covers me there with His hand.

I’ll Go Where You Want Me To Go Ambassador Hymnal #500

It may not be on the mountain’s height Or over the stormy sea, It may not be at the battlefront My Lord will have need of me; But if by a still, small voice He calls To paths I do not know, I’ll answer, dear Lord, with my hand in Thine, I’ll go where You want me to go.

I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, Refrain: I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, O’er mountain or plain or sea; I’ll say what You want me to say, dear Lord, I’ll be what You want me to be.

Perhaps today there are loving words Which Jesus would have me speak, There may be now, in the paths of sin, Some wanderer whom I should seek; O Savior, if Thou wilt be my Guide, Tho’ dark and rugged the way, My voice shall echo the message sweet, I’ll say what You want me to say.

I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, Refrain: I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, O’er mountain or plain or sea; I’ll say what You want me to say, dear Lord, I’ll be what You want me to be.

There’s surely somewhere a lowly place In earth’s harvest fields so wide, Where I may labor thru life’s short day For Jesus the Crucified; So, trusting my all unto Thy care— I know Thou lovest me— I’ll do Thy will with a heart sincere, I’ll be what You want me to be.

I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, Refrain: I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, O’er mountain or plain or sea; I’ll say what You want me to say, dear Lord, I’ll be what You want me to be.

The LORD’s Prayer Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven; Give us this day our daily bread: And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us,

The LORD’s Prayer And lead us not into temptation; But deliver us from evil; For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, And the glory, forever and ever. AMEN.

Amen

Have a blessed day!
