Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. (song) O Worship the King O worship the King, all glorious above And gratefully sing His wonderful love Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days Pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise O tell of His might, O sing of His grace Whose robe is the light and canopy space His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form And dark is His path on the wings of the storm CHORUS: You alone are the matchless King To You alone be all majesty Your glories and wonders what tongue can recite You breathe in the air You shine in the light O measureless might, ineffable love, While angels delight to worship above

The Incarnate God, ascended Pleads the merit of His blood Venture on Him; venture wholly Let no other trust intrude None but Jesus, none but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good Come ye weary heavy laden bruised and broken by the fall If you tarry till you're better You will never come at all Not the righteous, not the righteous Sinner Jesus came to call

6 communion in Sacrament (song) All I Have is Christ I once was lost in darkest night Yet thought I knew the way The sin that promised joy and life Had led me to the grave I had no hope that You would own A rebel to Your will And if You had not loved me first I would refuse You still But as I ran my hell-bound race Indifferent to the cost You looked upon my helpless state And led me to the cross And I beheld God s love displayed You suffered in my place You bore the wrath reserved for me Now all I know is grace Hallelujah! All I have is Christ Hallelujah! Jesus is my life (repeat) Now, Lord, I would be Yours alone And live so all might see The strength to follow Your commands Could never come from me Oh Father, use my ransomed life In any way You choose And let my song forever be My only boast is You
