I’M GOING FREE
Verse 1
Go on and speak against
My borrowed innocence
The judge is my defense
I’m going free
Right when the gavel fell
I heard the freedom bell
Ring through the heart of hell
I’m going free
I’m going free
Chorus 1
Glory, glory
Hallelujah
You threw my shackles
in the sea
Glory glory
Hallelujah
Jesus is my liberty
I’m going free
Verse 2
I won’t go back again
That’s just not who I am
Lord, I’m a brand new man
I’m going free
I’m on a narrow road
It’s paved with grace and hope
It’s gonna lead me home
I’m going free
I’m going free
Bridge
I am free, free indeed
I am free, free indeed
We are free, free indeed
We are free, free indeed
Chorus 2
Glory, glory
Hallelujah
You threw my shackles
in the sea
Glory, glory
Hallelujah
Jesus is my liberty
Tag
Someday I’ll fly away
On Your amazing grace
Your love is my jailbreak
I’m going free
I’m going free
ROCK OF AGES
Verse 1
Rock of Ages
cleft for me
Let me hide
myself in Thee
Let the water
and the blood
From Thy wounded
Side which flowed
Be of sin the
double cure
Save from wrath
And make me pure
Verse 2
Not the labors
of my hands
Can fulfill Thy
law’s demands
Could my zeal
no respite know
Could my tears
forever flow
All for sin
could not atone
Thou must save
and Thou alone
Verse 3
Nothing in my
hand I bring
Simply to the
cross I cling
Naked come to
Thee for dress
Helpless look to
Thee for grace
Foul, I to the fountain fly
Wash me Savior
or I die
Verse 4
While I draw this
fleeting breath
When mine eyes
shall close in death
When I soar
to worlds unknown
See Thee on
Thy judgment throne
Rock of Ages, cleft for me
Let me hide myself in Thee
I WILL WAIT FOR YOU (PSALM 130)
Verse 1
Out of the depths
I cry to You
In darkest places
I will call
Incline Your ear
to me anew
And hear my cry
for mercy, Lord
Verse 2
Were You to count
my sinful ways
How could I come
before Your throne
Yet full forgiveness
meets my gaze
I stand redeemed
by grace alone
Chorus 1
I will wait for You
I will wait for You
On Your word I will rely
I will wait for You
Surely wait for You
Till my soul is satisfied
Verse 3
So put your hope
in God alone
Take courage in
His power to save
Completely and
forever won
By Christ emerging
from the grave
Chorus 2
I will wait for You
I will wait for You
Through the storm
and through the night
I will wait for You
Surely wait for You
For Your love is my delight
Verse 4
Now He has come
to make a way
And God Himself
has paid the price
That all who trust
in Him today
Find healing
in His sacrifice
That all who trust
in Him today
Find healing
in His sacrifice
Chorus 2
I will wait for You
I will wait for You
Through the storm
and through the night
I will wait for You
Surely wait for You
For Your love is my delight

Sermon
1 Thessalonians 1:1-3 – Sam Andres
BEHOLD THE LAMB
Verse 1
Behold the Lamb
Who bears our sins away
Slain for us: and we remember
The promise made
That all who come in faith
Find forgiveness at the cross
Chorus 1
So we share
in this Bread of life
And we drink
of His sacrifice
As a sign of
our bonds of peace
Around the table
of the King
Verse 2
The body of our Savior
Jesus Christ
Torn for you
Eat and remember
The wounds that heal
The death that brings us life
Paid the price to make us one
Chorus 1
So we share
in this Bread of life
And we drink
of His sacrifice
As a sign of
our bonds of peace
Around the table
of the King
Verse 3
The blood that cleanses
Every stain of sin
Shed for you
Drink and remember
He drained death’s cup
That all may enter in
To receive the life of God
Verse 4
And so with thankfulness
And faith we rise
To respond
And to remember
Our call to follow
In the steps of Christ
As His body here on earth
Chorus 2
As we share
in His suffering
We proclaim
Christ will come again
And we’ll join
in the feast of heaven
Around the table
of the King
CHRIST OUR HOPE IN LIFE AND DEATH
Verse 1
What is our hope
in life and death?
Christ alone
Christ alone
What is our only
confidence?
That our souls
to him belong
Who holds our days
within his hand?
What comes apart
from his command?
And what will keep
us to the end?
The love of Christ
in which we stand
Chorus
O sing hallelujah
Our hope springs eternal
O sing hallelujah
Now and ever we confess
Christ our hope
in life and death
Verse 2
What truth can calm
the troubled soul?
God is good
God is good
Where is his grace and
goodness known?
In our great Redeemer’s blood
Who holds our faith
when fears arise?
Who stands above
the stormy trial?
Who sends the waves
that bring us nigh
Unto the shore
the rock of Christ?
Chorus
O sing hallelujah
Our hope springs eternal
O sing hallelujah
Now and ever we confess
Christ our hope
in life and death
Verse 3
Unto the grave
what shall we sing?
Christ, he lives
Christ, he lives
And what reward
will heaven bring?
Everlasting life with him
There we will rise
to meet the Lord
Then sin and death
will be destroyed
And we will feast
in endless joy
When Christ is ours
forevermore
Chorus
O sing hallelujah
Our hope springs eternal
O sing hallelujah
Now and ever we confess
Christ our hope
in life and death
