Immanuel, God with us
Alpha, Omega, God’s only son
Glory of God, Word became flesh
Come to dwell among us, the light of all men
Immanuel, Immanuel
God’s only son; God with us
Immanuel, King of all Kings
Salvation of mankind in the form of a babe
Promise of God, Messiah foretold
“Good news of great joy!” the angels proclaimed
Immanuel, Immanuel
God’s only son; God with us
Immanuel, Prince of Peace
Suffered and died so my soul could be free
Judgement of God, bearing our sin
Now coheirs in heaven for the price paid by Thee
Immanuel, Immanuel
God’s only son; God with us
Immanuel, Christ risen, indeed
The tomb could not hold him, death has no sting!
Vict’ry of God, all praise to Him
Our hope, our deliverance, to Calvary we cling.
Immanuel, Immanuel
God’s only son; God with us
Immanuel, Lord of Lords
Forever reigns o’er us, upon His return
Right hand of God, Lion and Lamb
A new heav’n, a new Earth, His creation restored
Immanuel, Immanuel
God’s only son, God with us
Immanuel, Immanuel
God’s only son, God's only son, God's only son
God with us

Answer me when I call O God, of my righteousness!
You have given relief when I was in distress.
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer,
Be gracious unto me O God!
O men, how long shall my honor be turned into shame?
How long will you seek after lies and love the words that are vain?
But know that the Lord has set apart His godly ones,
The Lord hears when I call to Him.
Be agitated and do not sin; ponder in your hearts,
Lie on your bed and be silent, from sin you will depart,
Offer right sacrifices, put your trust in the Lord.
Offer right and trust in God!
Many there are who say “Who, who will show us some good?
Lift up the light of Your face upon us, Lord, if you would”
You have put more joy inside my heart
Than they have when their goods abound.
In peace I will both lie down and sleep, knowing all is well.
For You alone O my Lord, you make me in safety dwell.
Be gracious to me and hear my prayers,
The Lord hears when I call to Him!
Be gracious to me and hear my prayers,
The Lord hears when I call to Him!

There is now no condemnation
For those who’re in Christ
For what the law could not do
God did; Christ crucified
If Christ sets you free, you are free indeed!
In our pleasure, Christ is better
In our pain, Christ is enough
In our pleasure, Christ is better
In our pain, Christ is enough
The mind set on our own flesh
Finds death, born from our sin
But minds renewed by the Spirit
Are those born again
If Christ sets you free, you are free indeed!
Chorus
“Abba, Father” by your Spirit
we groan and we cry
Heirs of Christ with Him we suffer,
With Him glorified
If Christ sets you free, you are free indeed!
Chorus
Present sufferings do not compare
With glory to come
Children of God, now in freedom
Pray, “Your will be done!”
If Christ sets you free, you are free indeed!
Chorus
God is for us! More than conquerors,
His people restored
In Christ Jesus, never separate,
His love, our reward
If Christ sets you free, you are free indeed!
Chorus
(repeat)

What kind of king gives his life for the rebels?
What shepherd, so good, he’d die for his sheep?
What lion, now, a lamb willingly slain?
What righteous judge pardons me?
Christ our King, Jesus our Savior
Hosanna! Our hope lives in You
Grace has claimed victory over our sin
In Him we are made new
What savior gives a dead man life by dying?
Gifts robe and ring to the prodigal son?
What true high priest offers self to atone?
What love says, “Your will be done”?
Chorus
(interlude)
What perfect Son bore the wrath of the Father?
Who paid the price I could never afford?
Who can proclaim, “O death, where is your sting?”
No grave could contain our Lord!
Chorus
That which the world would call weak, low, and foolish
God chooses now to raise up, wise and strong
Jesus, despised and rejected by men
My weakness, His strength, our song!
Chorus
(interlude)
Grace, grace, God’s grace
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within
Grace, grace, God’s grace
Grace that is greater than all my sin
Grace that is greater than all my sin
Grace that is greater than all my sin

"Grace Greater Than Our Sin"
Lyrics: Julia Harriette Johnston
Melody: Daniel Brink Towner
All authority in heaven and on earth is Christ's,
Go! therefore, go and make disciples!
In the name of Father, Son, and Spirit go baptize,
Go! therefore, go and make disciples!
Don't Stop! GO
Go and make disciples!
Jesus has authority and tells us to.
Don't Stop! GO
Go and make disciples!
Always, til the end of ages,
He's with you.
Teaching them to observe all that He's commanded you,
Go! therefore, go and make disciples!
And behold, until the end of time He'll be there too,
Go! therefore, go and make disciples!
Don't Stop! GO
Go and make disciples!
Jesus has authority and tells us to.
Don't Stop! GO
Go and make disciples!
Always, til the end of ages,
He's with you.
(repeat)
Always, til the end of ages,
He's with you!

Our sovereign King does as He pleases
In earth and sky, the deeps, the seas.
His purposes are sure, and they are true;
He is rich in love and mercy for you.
With confidence draw near to the throne
For mercy and for grace in your need.
Our sovereign King does as He pleases
In earth and sky, the deeps, the seas.
He knitted me, secretly wove me,
I praise Him for this wondrous thing.
My every day was written for me,
In the womb and on the earth, for His glory!
Chorus
With Jesus we’ll no longer see death,
No mourning, tears, or weariness.
Our Lord has made for those who love Him
What our human hearts could never imagine.
Chorus
So let His steadfast love comfort,
He binds up wounds and heals the heart.
Rejoice, exult, O heavens and earth;
Proclaim our King’s incomparable worth!
May earth be filled with His glory
Amen and amen, His glory!
Chorus
(repeat)
In earth and sky, the deeps, the seas.
