Sabbath Rest- Sing to Jesus

This is not a new song by any means (written in 2002), but the words still hit home. What a great mystery – that the Lord of the universe would give his life for me!


Come and see
Look on this mystery
Lord of the universe
Nailed to a tree

Christ our God
Spilling His holy blood
Bowing in anguish
His sacred head

Sing to Jesus
Lord of our shame
Lord of our sinful hearts
He is our great Redeemer
Sing to Jesus
Honor His name
Sing of His faithfulness
Pouring His life out unto death

Come, you weary
And He will give you rest
Come you who mourn
Lay on His breast

He who died
Risen in paradise
Giver of mercy
Giver of life

Sing to Jesus
His is the throne
Now and forever
He is the king of heaven
Sing to Jesus
We are His own
Now and forever
Sing for the love our God has shown

Sing to Jesus
Lord of our shame
Lord of our sinful hearts
He is our great Redeemer
Sing to Jesus
Honor His name
Sing to Jesus
His is the throne
Now and forever
He is the king of heaven
Sing to Jesus
We are His own
Now and forever
Sing for the love our God has shown

Sabbath Rest – Ancient of Days

David Wesley is no longer making these wonderful a cappella videos – but I couldn’t resist this one of Ancient of Days.  For truly –

Though the nations rage, kingdoms rise and fall
There is still one King reigning over all
So I will not fear, for this truth remains
That my God is the Ancient of Days

Though the nations rage, kingdoms rise and fall
There is still one King reigning over all
So I will not fear, for this truth remains
That my God is the Ancient of Days

None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne, it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is the Ancient of Days

Though the dread of night overwhelms my soul
He is here with me, I am not alone
Oh, His love is sure, and He knows my name
For my God is the Ancient of Days

None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne, it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is the Ancient of Days

Though I may not see what the future brings
I will watch and wait for the Saviour King
Then my joy complete, standing face to face
In the presence of the Ancient of Days

None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne, it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is the Ancient of Days
For my God is the Ancient of Days

Sabbath Rest – Completely Known, Completely Loved

This is a new hymn to me, recently published by Getty Music. But oh, these words!!
Completely His, how can it be?
That God would set His heart on me
Loved not for works that I have done
But long before time had begun

Completely known, completely loved
My heart is seen by God above
Should I now run? Dare hide my face?
When in His eyes there is only grace

Completely free, the shame is gone
The highest Judge took all my wrongs
And set them on His only Son
He bore my sin, I bear His love

Completely known, completely loved
I’m covered by my Savior’s blood
I’m robed in white and God is pleased
To see His Son, when He looks on me

Completely His, how can it be?
That God would set His heart on me
Loved not for works that I have done
But long before time had begun

Completely known, completely loved
I’m covered by my Savior’s blood
I’m robed in white and God is pleased
To see His Son, when He looks on me

Completely saved, the work is done
The curse, the grave, is overcome
For with that dawn there rose a King!
Now heaven’s smile shines over me

Completely known, completely loved
I’m covered by my Savior’s blood
I’m robed in white and God is pleased
To see His Son, when He looks on me

Completely Known, Completely Loved

Sabbath Rest – I belong to the Lord

What a beautiful truth –
The One who made the heavens, made my heart and soul –
Before I drew a breath, I was loved and known!

The One who made the heavens, made my heart and soul
Before I drew a breath, I was loved and known
I am His creation, the Maker’s masterpiece
And all that He designs will be done in me

My body is a temple of the living God
I’ll worship in this house that His blood has bought
As I bear His image, oh, may I not profane
The holiness I hold in this earthly frame

I belong to the Lord, oh, I am not my own
I belong to the Lord, I am not my own
I will honor Him for this I know
I belong to the Lord, I am not my own

And if He has redeemed me, I am not my own
The measure of my worth is His love alone
He declares my standing, and He declares my state
So I will know myself by the name He gave

I belong to the Lord, oh, I am not my own
I belong to the Lord, I am not my own
I will honor Him for this I know
I belong to the Lord, I am not my own

I am not my own and now my heart is free
O Maker, come and make what You will of me
There is nothing broken that You cannot repair
So Lord, I leave my life in Your loving care (I know that)

I belong to the Lord, oh, I am not my own
I belong to the Lord, I am not my own
I will honor Him for this I know
I belong to the Lord, I am not my own (oh, I am not my own)
I will honor Him for this I know
I belong to the Lord, I am not my own

Sabbath Rest – How Great is the Greatness of God

This morning at church we sang several hymns that celebrated the greatness of God. Here’s a brand-new hymn from the Getty Music Team that also speaks to that powerful truth!

How faithful the Father above
How wondrous the works of the Son
How sweet is the Spirit given to us
How great is the greatness of God

Chorus
How faithful the Father above
How wondrous the works of the Son
How sweet is the Spirit given to us
How great is the greatness of God

Vs 1
Morning by morning with every dawn,
My soul with a new song awaits
Still in the evening my praise goes on;
Forever my God is the same

Vs 2
When my heart gazes on Calvary,
At all of Your mercies arrayed
Oh, that my Savior would die for me
I sing out with infinite thanks

Vs 3
Oh what a comfort in every trial;
His presence is all that I need
Power that brought resurrection life,
That power is living in me
