Beyond the Walls Welcome

Beyond the Walls O for a Thousand Tongues to sing My great Redeemer’s praise, My great Redeemer’s praise! The glories of my God and King, The triumphs of His grace!

Beyond the Walls Jesus! the name that charms our fears, That bids our sorrows cease, That bids our sorrows cease; ’Tis music in the sinner’s ears, ’Tis life, and health, and peace.

Beyond the Walls He breaks the power of cancelled sin, He sets the prisoner free, He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean, His blood availed for me.

Beyond the Walls He speaks and, listening to His voice, New life the dead receive, New life the dead receive; The mournful, broken hearts rejoice, The humble poor believe.

Beyond the Walls Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb, Your loosened tongues employ, Your loosened tongues employ; Ye blind, behold your Saviour come; And leap, ye lame, for joy!

Beyond the Walls My gracious Master and my God, Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad The honours of Thy name.

Beyond the Walls

All around us are Walls

Beyond the Walls Palestine

Beyond the Walls China

Beyond the Walls North Africa

Beyond the Walls Berlin

Beyond the Walls All around us are Walls

Beyond the Walls Walls are a gift Walls are also a burden

Beyond the Walls Walls protect the vulnerable But hide us from the needy

Beyond the Walls Walls protect us from enemies But hide us from the stranger

Beyond the Walls Walls give us security Walls give us sanctuary

Beyond the Walls Walls also give us a reason to stay inside A reason not to meet our neighbour

Beyond the Walls (A really short version of Luke )

Beyond the Walls All around us are Walls

Beyond the Walls Walls between us

Beyond the Walls Walls among us

Beyond the Walls Some walls are meant to be broken (Ephesians 2.14)

Beyond the Walls Some walls are meant to be built (1 Peter 2.5)

Beyond the Walls (Confession and Intercession)

Beyond the Walls We listen “For he is our peace; in his flesh he has made both groups into one and has broken down the dividing wall, that is the hostility between us.” (Ephesians 2.14) “Like living stones, let yourselves be built into a spiritual house…” (1 Peter 2.5)

Beyond the Walls

And can it be that I should gain An interest in the Saviour’s blood? Died He for me, who caused His pain? For me, who Him to death pursued? Amazing love! how can it be That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

Beyond the Walls ’Tis mystery all! The Immortal dies: Who can explore His strange design? In vain the first-born seraph tries To sound the depths of love divine! ’Tis mercy all! let earth adore, Let angel minds inquire no more.

Beyond the Walls He left His Father’s throne above, So free, so infinite His grace; Emptied Himself of all but love, And bled for Adam’s helpless race. ‘Tis mercy all, immense and free; For, O my God, it found out me.

Beyond the Walls Long my imprisoned spirit lay Fast bound in sin and nature’s night; Thine eye diffused a quickening ray, I woke, the dungeon flamed with light; My chains fell off, my heart was free; I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.

Beyond the Walls No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, and all in Him, is mine! Alive in Him, my living Head, And clothed in righteousness divine, Bold I approach the eternal throne, And claim the crown, through Christ my own.
