 His Mercy Is More
(Chorus)
Praise the Lord His mercy is more; Stronger than darkness new every
morn
Our sins they are many His mercy is more

Thrown into a sea without bottom or shore
Our sins they are many His mercy is more
Nothing But The Blood
What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make me whole again? Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
(Chorus)
Oh! precious is the flow,That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know, Nothing but the blood of Jesus
For my pardon, this I see, Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
For my cleansing this my plea, Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Verse 2
What patience would wait as we constantly roam
What Father so tender is calling us home

This is all my hope and peace, Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
This is all my righteousness, Nothing but the blood of Jesus
(Chorus)

Verse 3
What riches of kindness He lavished on us
His blood was the payment His life was the cost
We stood 'neath a debt we could never afford

 Glorious Day
At Calvary (#138)
Verse 1 Years I spent in vanity and pride, Caring not my Lord was crucified,
I was buried beneath my shame; Who could carry that kind of weight Knowing not it was for me He died On Calvary.
It was my tomb 'til I met You
(Chorus)
Mercy there was great, and grace was free;
Verse 2
Pardon there was multiplied to me;
I was breathing but not alive; All my failures I tried to hide
There my burdened soul found liberty
It was my tomb 'til I met You
At Calvary.

(Chorus)
('Cause when) You called my name; I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness into Your glorious day
You called my name (and) I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness into Your glorious day
Verse 3
Now Your mercy has saved my soul; Now Your freedom is all that I
know
The old made new Jesus when I met You
By God’s Word at last my sin I learned; Then I trembled at the law
I’d spurned,
Till my guilty soul imploring turned To Calvary.
(Chorus)
Oh, the love that drew salvation’s plan!
Oh, the grace that brought it down to man!
Oh, the mighty gulf that God did span At Calvary!
(Chorus)

(Chorus)

Bridge
I needed rescue my sin was heavy; But chains break at the weight of
Your glory
I needed shelter I was an orphan; Now You call me a citizen of Heaven
When I was broken You were my healing; Now Your love is the air that
I'm breathing
I have a future my eyes are open

(Chorus)

Victory In Jesus (#426)
I heard an old, old story, How a Savior came from glory
How He gave His life on Calvary, To save a wretch like me
I heard about His groaning, Of His precious blood's atoning
Then I repented of my sins, And won the victory
(Chorus)
Oh, victory in Jesus, my Savior forever
He sought me and bought me with His redeeming blood
He loved me 'ere I knew Him and all my love is due Him
He plunged me to victory beneath the cleansing flood
I heard about His healing, Of His cleansing power revealing
How He made the lame to walk again, And caused the blind to see
And then I cried, "Dear Jesus, come and heal my broken spirit"
And somehow Jesus came and brought to me the victory
(Chorus)
I heard about a mansion, He has built for me in glory
And I heard about the streets of gold beyond the crystal sea
About the angels singing, and the old redemption story
And some sweet day I’ll sing up there the song of victory
(Chorus)
How Great Is Our God/How Great Thou Art
The splendor of the King, clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice, let all the earth rejoice
He wraps Himself in light, and darkness tries to hide
And trembles at His voice, trembles at His voice
How great is our God, sing with me, how great is our God
And all will see how great, how great is our God
Age to age He stands, and time is in His hands
Beginning and the end, Beginning and the end
The God-head three in one, Father, Spirit, Son
The Lion and the Lamb, the Lion and the Lamb
How great is our God, sing with me, how great is our God
And all will see how great, how great is our God
How great is our God, sing with me, how great is our God
And all will see how great, how great is our God
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, How great Thou art,
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, How great Thou art,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art,
How great is our God, sing with me, how great is our God
And all will see how great, how great is our God
