Let The Praises Ring
O Lord, my God, in You I put my trust; O Lord, my God, in You I put my hope; O Lord, my God, in You I put my hope.
In You, in You I find my peace; In You, in You I find my strength; In You, I live and move and breath;
Let everything I say and do be founded by my faith in you; I lift up holy hands and sing, Let the Praises Ring!
O Lord, my God, to You I give my hands; O Lord, my God, to You I give my feet; O Lord, my God, to You I give my everything; O Lord, my God, to You I give my life.
In You, in You I find my peace; In You, in You I find my strength; In You, I live and move and breath;
Let everything I say and do be founded by my faith in you; I lift up holy hands and sing, Let the Praises Ring!

Holding On
Holding on for unfailing love Crying out for a touch of peace needing Your grace to fall
Holding on for unfailing love Crying out for a touch of peace needing Your grace to fall
When the race is long And the prize seems hard to grasp, You call me to run on.
I’m weary, Lord, And have been losing heart. O help me to be strong
Lord, take me from this barren place; I’m not sure I can hold on.
Everything of me seems Stripped a-way; But I know You’ll keep Your promise
Holding on for unfailing love Crying out for a touch of peace needing Your grace to fall
Holding on for unfailing love Crying out for a touch of peace needing Your grace to fall
My heart is parched and yearning for your voice; I need Your life with-in.
Come lift my eyes to meet Your gaze again, That You’d become my strength.
Lord, take me from this barren place; I’m not sure I can hold on.
Everything of me seems Stripped a-way; But I know You’ll keep Your promise
Holding on for unfailing love Crying out for a touch of peace needing Your grace to fall
Holding on for unfailing love Crying out for a touch of peace needing Your grace to fall
Needing Your grace to fall, Needing Your grace to fall

Once Again
Jesus Christ, I think upon Your sacrifice; You became nothing, Poured out to death.
Many times I’ve wondered At Your gift of life, And I’m in that place once again. I’m in that place once again.
Jesus Christ, I think upon Your sacrifice; You became nothing, Poured out to death.
Many times I’ve wondered At Your gift of life, And I’m in that place once again. I’m in that place once again.
Once again I look up-on the cross Where You died Once again I look up-on the cross Where You died. I’m humbled by Your mercy And I’m broken in-side.
Once again I thank You, Once again I pour out my life.
Now You are exalted To the highest place, King of the heavens, Where one day I’ll bow.
But for now, I marvel at this saving grace, And I’m full of praise once again. I’m full of praise once again.
Once again I look up-on the cross Where You died Once again I look up-on the cross Where You died. I’m humbled by Your mercy And I’m broken in-side.

Scripture Psalm 100 Matthew 25: 14-30 1 Thessalonians 5: 1-11 Scripture Taken from the Holy Bible Today’s New International Version
Psalm 100 For giving grateful praise Psalm 100 For giving grateful praise. 1 Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth. 2 Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. 3 Know that the LORD is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Psalm 100 4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. 5 For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.

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. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen
