Joyful | Blessed Be Your Name

Blessed Be Your Name
In the land that is plentiful
Where Your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your name

Blessed Be Your name
When I’m found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed Be Your name

Every blessing You pour out, I’ll
turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

Blessed be Your name
When the sun’s shining down on me
When the world’s ‘all as it should be’
Blessed be Your name

Blessed be Your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there’s pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name

Every blessing You pour out I’ll
turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

Repeat

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your name

Repeat

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

Repeat until end

Worship | Pure

[Verse 1 – Solo]
Coming back to just me and You
Just a heart song singing out of tune
I remember the simplicity
Just to feel You here was everything

[Pre-Chorus – Solo]
Stunned by Your beauty
This is my offering

[Chorus – All in Unison]
Not for anything that I could gain
Just to honor You and bring You praise
Like a fragrance broken on the floor
May my worship be pure
There’s no motive, there’s no hidden catch
Here’s my all and I don’t want it back
Like a fragrance broken on the floor
May my worship be pure

[Verse 2]
Find me like a child again
Full of wonder, full of innocence
Before anything got in the way
Any dream or any accolade

[Pre-Chorus]
You make it easy
Easy to bring me

[Chorus]
Not for anything that I could gain
Just to honor You and bring You praise
Like a fragrance broken on the floor
May my worship be pure
There’s no motive, there’s no hidden catch
Here’s my all and I don’t want it back
Like a fragrance broken on the floor
May my worship be pure

[Post-Chorus]
Pure thanks, pure praise
Nothing in the way
My heart, my love
This is all You want

[Bridge]
And it’s all about, all about You, all about You
And it’s all about, all about You, all about You
And it’s all about, all about You, all about You
And it’s all about You, yeah
All about You, all about You
And it’s all about, all about You, all about You
And it’s all about, all about You, all about You
And it’s all about You

[Chorus]
Not for anything that I could gain
Just to honor You and bring You praise
Like a fragrance broken on the floor
May my worship be pure
There’s no motive, there’s no hidden catch
Here’s my all and I don’t want it back
Like a fragrance broken on the floor
Let my worship be pure

Gathering | Altar of Hope/Be Still

Though earth be shaken
though mountains quake
God is our refuge
where fear fades away

Rest in the silence
and be filled with His peace
as grace overtakes us
at the altar of hope

Be still, be still and know that He is God
Be still, be still and know that He is God

Be still, be still and know that He is God
Be still, be still and know that He is God

Reflection | Hosea (Come Back to Me)

Come back to me
with all your heart
Don’t let fear
keep us apart

Trees do bend
though straight and tall
so must we
to others’ call

Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living
deeply a new life

The wilderness
will lead you
to your heart
where I will speak

Integrity
and justice
with tenderness
you shall know

Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living
deeply a new life

You shall sleep
secure with peace
faithfulness
will be your joy

Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living
deeply a new life

There is no Closing Hymn for Lent.
