    Declaring What We Believe

    The Apostle’s Creed

    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 Ghost, 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;

    He ascended into heaven,

    And sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;

    From whence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

    I believe in the Holy Ghost;

    The holy universal church; The communion of saints;

    The forgiveness of sins; The resurrection of the body;

    And the life everlasting. Amen.

    “The Lord is King, Enthroned in Might”

     

     

    Praise to the Lord, the Almighty

    1. Praise to the LORD, the Almighty, the King of creation!

    O my soul, praise him, for he is your health and salvation!

    Come, all who hear; brothers and sisters, draw near,

    Join me in glad adoration!

     

    1. Praise to the LORD, who o’er all things is wondrously reigning,

    Sheltering you under his wings, oh, so gently sustaining.

    Have you not seen all that is needful has been

    sent by his gracious ordaining.

     

    1. Praise to the Lord, who will prosper your work and defend you.

    Surely his goodness and mercy shall daily attend you.

    Ponder a new what the Almighty can do

    as with his love he befriends you.

     

    1. Praise to the LORD! Oh, let all that is in me adore him!

    All that has life and breath, come now with praises before him!

    The Lord Is My Salvation

    The grace of God has reached for me and pulled me from the raging sea

    And I am safe on this solid ground. The Lord is my salvation.

    I will not fear when darkness falls

    His strength will help me scale these walls

    I’ll see the dawn of the rising sun. The Lord is my salvation

     

    Refrain:

    Who is like the Lord our God?  Strong to save, faithful in love

    When winter fades I know spring will come. The Lord is my salvation

    In times of waiting, times of need when I know loss, when I am weak

    I know His grace will renew these days. The Lord is my salvation

    Repeat Refrain

     

    And when I reach my final day He will not leave me in the grave

    But I will rise, Christ will call me home; The Lord is my salvation

    Repeat Refrain
