Lyrics to "Honor and Glory"

You turned the sea to dry land 

So we could cross the river 

delivered us by your hand

And we rejoiced together

So we give thanks through all the earth

For You alone command the waters

And You have heard my desperate prayers

For You alone save Your sons and daughters

Chorus:

Honor and glory

From every nation

Every generation

Is Yours O God

This day of  blessing

Hearts now confessing

Your saving power and glorious work

Forever and ever, Amen.

You O God have tested us

You trapped us in your net

Laid heavy burdens on our backs

Let men trample on our heads

But then You brought us to your house

You refined us like silver

You brought us into freedom land

Through the fire and water

Bridge:

Your Cross covers the whole earth

And points to everyone everywhere

From  one man  

One crucifixion 

One resurrection

One life for everyone

This scripture passage is so interesting and complex. A real cautionary tale. Chad sorts it all out for us, pointing us to Christ and His forgiveness, and warning us to resist taking matters of retribution into our own hands.

Lyrics to "For Want of Forgiveness"

Let me go, and leave my heart of stone

I’ll walk away

From getting even

For the times I was betrayed

And thought revenge

My only solution

Sunlight 

flooding into darkness

You hold me up,  and I’m letting go

Jesus, walking on the water

You come for me,  and I’m letting go

Chorus:

But Abner; 

Your hands were not bound;     your feet were not fettered;

No man showed you mercy

Forgiving his debtor as one falls before the wicked     you have fallen.”

For want of forgiveness

Deliver me from seeking my revenge

At the shrine of retribution 

And I trust that  Lord You have forgiven me

And  I received Your absolution

Sunlight 

flooding into darkness

You hold me up,  so I’m letting go

Jesus, walking on the water

You come for me,  and  I’m letting go

Chorus:

But Abner;

Your hands were not bound;     your feet were not fettered;

None showed you mercy

You were the debtor as one falls before the wicked     you have fallen.”

For want of forgiveness

Don’t want to live a lie

Empty and alone

For want of forgiveness

A fool without friends

Take my heart of stone

I have been forgiven

There is so much to gaze at and learn from in this passage. Chad compassionately navigates

through the wreckage and gives us encouraging words in times of grief.  Colin Heinrich sings "Oh, How the Mighty Have Fallen".

  Lyrics to

Oh, How the Mighty are Fallen (2 Samuel 1:17-27)

Your glory, O Israel, is slain on a hill!  Oh,  How the mighty have fallen!

Keep the news to yourself, of the blood that was spilled

 Oh,  How the mighty have fallen!

No field of offerings! no rain upon you   Oh,  How the mighty have fallen! Saul and Jonathan, beloved and true  Oh,  How the mighty have fallen!

Chorus

They were swifter than eagles

and stronger than  lions 

Oh, how the mighty have fallen 

Now the weapons of war, have all run their course

The song we are singing is solemn

Oh, how the mighty  

Oh, how the mighty have     fallen 

vs3

“You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul,     who clothed you in scarlet aplenty,     who put ornaments of gold,  with a heart so bold 

But his sword did not return empty

The sun stood still, in the midst of the sky

 Oh,  How the mighty have fallen!

Jonathan my brother, how could you die

 Oh,  How the mighty have fallen!

Chorus

They were swifter than eagles

and stronger than the lions 

Oh, how the mighty have fallen 

Now the weapons of war, have all run their course

The song we are singing is solemn

Oh, how the mighty  

Oh, how the mighty have fallen 

Saul's pride begins to unravel him. Hard to imagine that are biggest enemy is often our own fearful heart. Chad beautifully explores this passasge and passes along some great wisdom and our need to trust the Son of David with our battles. Chris Lizotte and Marvelle Figueroa sing "My Jealous Fear".

My Jealous Fear

As my kingdom slips away

The prophets lips have spoken

Fear is taking over

And everything is broken

And I clench my fist in anger

I cannot hold the crown

Even in my greatest dreams

I keep losing the throne

Chorus:

“Saul has struck down his thousands

And we celebrate 

But 10,000 are struck down by David

And His name is great

What more can he have,   

What more can he have

but the kingdom

Now all I have left

Is my jealous fear

I looked for one just like me

Cried out for an earthly king

I was a fearful created being

When I rejected You

And Saul fell like Lucifer

But David rose like Christ

My true King and Warrior

The way, the truth the  life

bridge

Let me serve only You

And see through Your eyes

By Your Word and Spirit 

You can give me wisdom

To serve only You

In Your love and mercy 

For every false way, every wrong turn,  I’ve been following, I’ve been trying 

Please forgive me, please forgive me

all I have left, all I have left, jealous fear

This week we revisit Psalm 8, meditate on the glory of God and give thanks for the wondrous things He alone has done. The gifted Izzi Ray sings "How Majestic is Your Name".

Lyrics to 

Hannah’s Song “And You Remember Me”

The bows of the mighty are broken,

And the rich sink under the waves 

You raise the poor from the wreckage

And the feeble are clothed with strength.

O Lord of hosts 

My heart rejoices in you

O Lord of hosts

You make all things new

And You Remember me

And You Remember me

O Lord of hosts

for not by might shall a man prevail.

You bring low, and raise us up

The wicked ones shall be cut off

While You fill the empty cup

O Lord of hosts

My heart rejoices in you

O Lord of hosts

You make all things new 

And You Remember me

And You Remember me

O Lord of hosts

My heart rejoices in you O Lord

O Lord, You make all things new

You bring to death and breath new life

O Lord, there is none like you

In the final episide of the Song of Deborah Chad contrasts 2 women, the foreigner hero and the mother of the commander who was fell, never to rise. Izz Ray sings "seed of a Woman".

Lyrics to Seed of a Woman

Turn aside, turn aside

Do not be afraid

Lay down, lay down

Never to awake

At her feet, he sank

he fell asleep

At her feet, he laid

Never to arise

She holds the hammer and takes the nail

In her right hand

Through his temple, comes the storm

And he will never stand

At her feet, he sank ,

he fell asleep

At her feet, he laid

Never to awake

Chorus:

The seed of a woman

Crushed the serpents head

Son of the virgin

Rose from the dead 

The seed of a woman

Sunlight at dawn 

When it rises, in its might

Praise to God. praise to God

For victory

Over sin, over death

Our enemy

At her feet, he sank

he fell asleep

At her feet, he laid

Never to arise

Turn aside, turn aside

I will not be afraid

I will lay down in peace

And when I awake

At Your feet, I will fall

and worship my Lord

At Your feet, I will bow

For I am alive 

 Bridge

Its over, its over now

Its over, do you hear the bell?

Ring out, ring out over death and hell

Your enemies perish 

And all is well

At Your feet

Lyrics to "The Steadfast One"

Blessed the man who fears You, trusts You

The righteous will never be moved

Steady  the heart, the heart set upon You

In the fight, when your heel is bruised

It is well 

It is well

Whatever the battle, 

Whatever the cost,

Whatever the struggle,

Whatever the loss

Light dawns in the darkness

You are not against us

No, You won’t forget us

Your’e the steadfast One

The steadfast One

Blessed the man who fears You, trusts You

Who is not afraid of bad news

Blessed the man, who imitates the Savior, 

And freely gives to the poor

It is well 

It is well

The wicked will perish

You will smile upon us forever

Unexpected lesson on unity is found in part 2 of this classic reading. Ryan Delmore sings "March On"

Lyrics to "March On"

You gave victory over evil

Victory over lies

You conquer in the battle

You strengthen us besides

You turn streams into rivers 

Drown the enemy 

And You reign forever

In Victory 

March on!

March on!

March on!

March on!

March On, my soul

March On! 

Deliver us from evil

Deliver us from shame

Lead us in the battle

We triumph in your name

And we are your children 

We’ve rejected the curse

Through the cross of the Saviour

You’ve given us birth

Chorus

The battle that is raging

For better or for worse

To serve You is a blessing

To turn away from a curse

The battle for the soul

Between the evil and the good

The spirit and the truth 

Against the flesh and the world

Unite us O Lord

Deliver us

Unite us O Lord

And make us one

Unite us O Lord

In  Christ Your Son

Lyrics to "Restoration"

Deborah’s Song (Part 1)

Restoration

When we did what was right

In our own eyes

We were taken away

We were caught by surprise

Our  highways  abandoned,

Our villages ceased The travelers kept to the byways.

The land had no peace

When the Lord went before us

The heavens came down

The clouds dropped their water

And You shook the ground

(Chorus) 

We were so tired

And  hope was gone

Out of the silence

We hear a song

Restoration

My heart goes out 

To those of you

Who offered themselves

So willingly

My heart can sing

Melodies to the Lord

Those that love You shall be 

With a heart restored

When the Lord went before us

The heavens came down

The clouds dropped their water

And You shook the ground  

(Chorus) 

We were so tired

And  hope was gone

Out of the silence

We hear a song

Restoration

Hear O kings

All you in high places

Let us sing

Sing to the God 

who saves us

Restoration
