Ages 3+ August 9, 2020 • Isaiah 55:1-9

© 2020 CRI • PO Box 9290, Canton, OH 44711 • www.ChildrensBulletins.com

1 SUNDAY, AUGUST 9, 2020 “COME PRAISE AND GLORIFY” Come praise and glorify our God, the Father of our Lord. In Christ He has in heav’nly realms, His blessings on us poured. For pure and blameless in His sight He destined us to be, and now we’ve been adopted through His Son eternally. (Chorus) To the praise of Your glory, to the praise of Your mercy and grace. To the praise of Your glory, You are the God who saves. Come praise and glorify our God, who gives His grace in Christ. In Him our sins are washed away, redeemed through sacrifice. In Him God has made known to us the myst’ry of His will, that Christ should be the Head of all, His purpose to fulfill. (Chorus) To the praise of Your glory, to the praise of Your mercy and grace. To the praise of Your glory, You are the God who saves. Come praise and glorify our God, for we’ve believed the Word, and through our faith we have a seal, the Spirit of the Lord. The Spirit guarantees our hope until redemption’s done, until we join in endless praise to God, the Three in One. (Chorus) To the praise of Your glory, to the praise of Your mercy and grace. To the praise of Your glory, You are the God who saves. To the praise of Your glory, to the praise of Your mercy and grace. To the praise of Your glory, You are the God who saves.

2 “THE LOVE OF GOD” The love of God is greater far than tongue or pen can ever tell. It goes beyond the highest star and reaches to the lowest hell. The guilty pair, bowed down with care, God gave His Son to win. His erring child He reconciled and pardoned from his sin. (Chorus) O love of God, how rich and pure! How measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure the saints’ and angels’ song. When years of time shall pass away and earthly thrones and kingdoms fall, when men, who here refuse to pray, on rocks and hills and mountains call, God’s love so sure shall still endure, all measureless and strong. Redeeming grace to Adam’s race, the saints’ and angels’ song. (Chorus) O love of God, how rich and pure! How measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure the saints’ and angels’ song. Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made, were ev’ry stalk on earth a quill, and every man a scribe by trade, to write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry, nor could the scroll contain the whole, tho stretched from sky to sky. (Chorus) O love of God, how rich and pure! How measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure the saints’ and angels’ song.

3 “HOSANNA, GLORY TO THE KING” Blessed is He who comes into our turbulence and speaks His peace into our souls. Blessed is He who rides into our brokenness, He is the one to make us whole. We lift our eyes. Our Hope has come. You are here to rescue us. Hosanna! Hosanna! Our God has come to set us free. Hosanna! Hosanna! You conquer ev’ry enemy. Glory to the King! He is the One who comes to find the lost, and reaches out to bring us in. He is the One to heal our wounded hearts and bring the dead to life again. We lift our eyes. Our Hope has come. You are here to rescue us. Hosanna! Hosanna! Our God has come to set us free. Hosanna! Hosanna! You conquer ev’ry enemy. Glory to the King! Feel the darkness tremble. Now the night is over. Hallelujahs rising, chains are gone forever. Feel the darkness tremble. Now the night is over. Hallelujahs rising, chains are gone forever. We lift our eyes. Our Hope has come. You are here to rescue us. We lift our eyes. Our Hope has come. You are here to rescue us. Hosanna! Hosanna! Our God has come to set us free. Hosanna! Hosanna! You conquer ev’ry enemy. Hosanna! Hosanna! Our God has come to set us free. Hosanna! Hosanna! You conquer ev’ry enemy. Glory to the King! Glory to the King! Glory to the King!

4 “GOD, THE UNCREATED ONE” God the uncreated One, the Author of salvation who wrote the laws of space and time, and fashioned worlds to His design. The One whom angel hosts revere, hung the stars like chandeliers, numbered every grain of sand, knows the heart of every man. He is King forever, He is King forever, He is King forevermore. God our fortress and our strength, the Rock on which we can depend, matchless in His majesty, His power and authority. Unshaken by the schemes of man, never-changing, great I AM. Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall, He is faithful through it all. Crown Him King forever, crown Him King forever, crown Him King forevermore. Mighty God in mortal flesh, forsaken by a traitor’s kiss, the curse of sin and centuries did pierce the lowly Prince of Peace. Oh, lifted high, the sinless man, crucified, the spotless Lamb, buried by the sons of man, rescued by the Father’s hand To reign as King forever, reign as King forever, reign as King forevermore. King Eternal, God of Grace, we crown you with the highest praise. Heaven shouts and saints adore, “You’re holy, holy, holy, Lord!” What joy in everlasting life, all is love and faith is sight. Justice rolls and praises rise at the Name of Jesus Christ. King of kings forever, King of kings forever, King of kings forevermore! King of kings forever, King of kings forever, King of kings forevermore!

5 “AMAZING GRACE, MY CHAINS ARE GONE” Amazing grace how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed. (Chorus) My chains are gone, I've been set free, my God my Savior has ransomed me. And like a flood His mercy reigns, unending love, amazing grace. The Lord has promised good to me. His word my hope secures. He will my shield and portion be, as long as life endures. (Chorus) My chains are gone, I've been set free, my God my Savior has ransomed me. And like a flood His mercy reigns, unending love, amazing grace. (Chorus) My chains are gone, I've been set free, my God my Savior has ransomed me. And like a flood His mercy reigns, unending love, amazing grace. And like a flood His mercy reigns, unending love, amazing grace. “WHEN TRIALS COME” When trials come, no longer fear, for in the pain our God draws near to fire a faith worth more than gold, and there His faithfulness is told and there His faithfulness is told Within the night I know Your peace, the breath of God brings strength to me, and new each morning mercies flow, as treasures of the darkness grow as treasures of the darkness grow I turn to wisdom not my own, for every battle You have known. My confidence will rest in You. Your love endures, Your ways are good Your love endures, Your ways are good When I am weary with the cost, I see the triumph of the cross, so in its shadow I shall run, till You complete the work begun till You complete the work begun One day all things will be made new, I’ll see the hope You called me to, and in your kingdom paved with gold I’ll praise Your faithfulness of old I’ll praise Your faithfulness of old!

6 INVITATION “AT THE CROSS” Alas! and did my Savior bleed? And did my Sov’reign die? Would He devote that sacred head for sinners such as I! (Chorus) At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, and the burden of my heart rolled away. It was there by faith I received my sight, and now I am happy all the day! Was it for crimes that I have done, He groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity! Grace unknown! And love beyond degree! (Chorus) At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, and the burden of my heart rolled away. It was there by faith I received my sight, and now I am happy all the day! Well might the sun in darkness hide and shut His glories in, when Christ, the mighty Maker, died for man the creature’s sin. (Chorus) At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, and the burden of my heart rolled away. It was there by faith I received my sight, and now I am happy all the day! But drops of grief can ne’er repay the debt of love I owe. Here, Lord, I give myself away, ’tis all that I can do! (Chorus) At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, and the burden of my heart rolled away. It was there by faith I received my sight, and now I am happy all the day!

7 OFFERTORY “JESUS MESSIAH” He became sin who knew no sin, that we might become His righteousness. He humbled Himself and carried the cross. Love so amazing, love so amazing. (Chorus) Jesus Messiah, Name above all names, blessed Redeemer, Emmanuel, the rescue for sinners, the ransom from heaven, Jesus Messiah, Lord of all. His body, the bread, His blood, the wine, broken and poured out all for love. The whole earth trembled and the veil was torn. Love so amazing, love so amazing. (Chorus) Jesus Messiah, Name above all names, blessed Redeemer, Emmanuel, the rescue for sinners, the ransom from heaven, Jesus Messiah, Lord of all. (Bridge) All our hope is in You, all our hope is in You. All the glory to You, God, the Light of the World.
