PRAISING SURROUNDS US

Praising surrounds us  |  Praise that is boundless  |  All of creation is singing His Name  |  Praise the Creator  |  And witness His splendor  |  Heaven and earth proclaim it the same…  Today
Today is the day of salvation He tells us  |  All of creation cries out to see men  |  Saved by the Son Who was sent to redeem us  |  All of creation cries out to see men…  Saved
And we’ll keep singing Your Name  |  And we’ll keep singing Your praise  |  Everyone singing His Name  |  Everyone singing His praise
Jesus the Savior gives rest from our labor  |  We cast our care to His throne  |  Loving our God while loving our neighbor  |  While all creation groans

YOUR LOVE IS

Your love is the measure of who we are  |  Your love is the measure of who we are  |  Your love is the measure of who we are in You
Your love is the treasure in this precious jar  |  Your love is the treasure in this precious jar  |  Your love is the treasure – we’re being poured out for You
Let us be useful wherever we go  |  May we plant and water what You want to grow  |  Though it’s a mystery, yet we still sow  |  For You
Lead us rejoicing wherever we go  |  Let us sow seeds of the Word that will grow  |  Deep in good soil  |  That only You know

POWER AND RICHES

Power and Riches  |  Wisdom and Strength  |  Honor and Glory  |  And Blessing
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

GREAT AND MARVELOUS

Make a joyful shout to God  |  All the earth  |  All the earth  |  Sing out the honor of His Name  |  Make His praise glorious, glorious, glorious  |  Say to God, “How awesome are Your works”
By the greatness of Your power  |  Your enemies shall fall before You  |  All the earth shall worship You  |  And sing praises to Your Name  |  Praises to Your Name  |  Great and Marvelous are the works of God

ISAIAH 55: INTRODUCTION

For the mountains shall depart  |  And the hills be removed  |  But My kindness shall not depart from you  |  Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed  |  Says the LORD, who has mercy   |  On you  |  O you afflicted one…
No weapon formed against you shall prosper  |  And every tongue which rises against you in judgment, you shall condemn  |  This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD  |  And their righteousness   |  Is from Me  |  Says the LORD

ISAIAH 55: VERSE 1

Ho!  |  Everyone who thirsts  |  Come to the waters  |  And you who have no money  |  Come buy and eat
Yes, come buy wine  |  And milk without money  |  And without price

ISAIAH 55: VERSE 2

Why do you spend money for what is not bread?  |  And your wages for what does not satisfy?
Listen carefully to me  |  And eat what is good
And let your soul delight itself in abundance

ISAIAH 55: VERSES 3-4

Incline your ear and come to me  |  Hear and your soul shall live  |  And I will make and everlasting Convenant  |  With you
The sure mercies of David  |  Indeed I have given him as a witness  |  To the People
A leader and commander  |  For the people

ISAIAH 55: VERSE 5

Surely You shall call  |  A nation You do not know  |  And nations who do not know You  |  Shall run  |  To You
Because of the LORD, Your God  |  The Holy One of Israel  |  For He has glorified You
( You are worthy!  |  Worthy!!  |  Worthy!!! )

ISAIAH 55: VERSES 6-7

Seek the LORD  |  While He may be found  |  Call upon Him while He is near
Let the wicked forsake his way  |  The unrighteous man his thoughts  |  Let him return to the LORD
And He will have mercy on him
And to our God  |  For He will abundantly pardon

ISAIAH 55: VERSES 8-11

For My thoughts are not your thoughts  |  Nor are your ways My ways  |  Says the LORD  |  For as the heavens are higher than the earth  |  So are My ways higher than your ways  |  And My thoughts higher than your thoughts  |  My thoughts higher than your thoughts  |  For as the heavens are higher than the earth  |  So are My ways higher than your ways
For as the rain comes down  |  And the snow from heaven  |  And do not return there  |  But water the earth  |  Make it bring forth and bud  |  That it may give seed to the sower  |  And bread to the eater  |  Bread to the eater  |  But water the earth  |  Make it bring forth and bud  |  That it may give seed to the sower
So shall My Word be that goes forth  |  From My mouth  |  Says the LORD  |  It shall not return void  |  But shall accomplish  |  What I please  |  And It shall prosper  |  In the thing for which I sent It  |  It shall not return void, but shall accomplish  |  What I please  |  Says the LORD  |  What I please  |  Says the LORD  |  What I please
And It shall prosper  |  In the thing for which I sent It  |  And water the earth  |  Make it bring forth and bud  |  For My ways are higher than your ways  |  Says the LORD  |  My ways are higher than your ways

ISAIAH 55: VERSES 12-13 & CODA

For you shall go out with joy  |  And be led forth with peace  |  The mountains and the hills shall break forth  |  Into singing before you
And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands  |  Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress tree  |  Instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree
And it shall be to the LORD for a Name  |  For an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off
Thus says the LORD  |  Keep justice and do righteousness  |  For My salvation is about to come  |  And My righteousness to be revealed
Blessed is the man  |  Who does this

SHOWERS OF BLESSING

May the showers of blessing come down  |  Let the showers of blessing come down
Lord, make Your Covenant of peace  |  And cause the wild beasts to cease  |  That they may dwell safely  |  In the woods they may sleep  |  Lord, make Your Covenant of peace
Lord, raise up Your garden of renown  |  Raise up Your garden of renown

THE POWER OF THE RESURRECTION

And You rose up from the grave  |  And ascended into heaven  |  Death could not contain You  |  The Resurrection and the Life  |  You washed our sins away  |  As You crushed the serpent’s head in  |  You’ve beaten death for every man who proclaims You are the Christ  |  By the power of the resurrection
You were there for just three days before ascending into heaven  |  Showing each believer how we pass from death to life  |  And now the power of the grave  |  And the power of the fallen one  |  No longer exist  |  Because we’re trusting in the Christ  |  And the power of the resurrection
I will trust in Jesus  |  I will trust in the Christ  |  I will trust in Jesus  |  I will trust in the Christ  |  In the power of the resurrection
Death has no power over You   |  Death has no power over me  |  Death has no power over you  |  Death has no power over me  |  By the power of the resurrection

SET US APART

Set us apart for the kingdom  |  Turn our world upside down  |  Sanctify us for Your glory  |  Make this Holy Ground
We enter in |  To the throne room  |  By the Blood of the Lamb  |  A most unlikely brethren  |  Before the great I Am
Humbled by our salvation  |  Given what we don’t deserve  |  We’re becoming Holy sons and daughters  |  By His Holy Word
We are not of this world  |  We were called out by the King  |  Called to love Him and each other  |  More than anything
Set us apart

THE CONCLUSION OF THE MATTER

The words of the wise are like goads  |  Like firmly nailed fences  |  A scholar’s treasure trove  |  But given by a Shepherd  |  Be careful, my son  |  By these be admonished  |  They’ll be writing many more  |  But they’ll only weary our flesh
Now all has been heard  |  Here’s the conclusion of the matter  |  Everything done under the sun  |  Here’s the conclusion of the matter
Fear God  |  And keep His commandments  |  Fear God  |  And keep His commandments  |  For this is everything there is to man  |  Yeah, this is all there is to man
For God will judge  |  Every hidden thing  |  All your works and deeds  |  As good or evil  |  God will judge  |  Oh so righteously  |  Every secret thing  |  As good or evil
