Jesus Calls us Here to Meet Him…

Jesus calls us here to meet him

as through word and song and prayer

we affirm God’s promised presence

where his people live and care.

Praise the God who keeps his promise;

praise the Son who calls us friends;

praise the Spirit who, among us,

to our hopes and fears attends.

Jesus calls us to confess him

Word of Life and Lord of All,

sharer of our flesh and frailness

saving all who fail or fall.

Tell his holy human story;

tell his tales that all may hear;

tell the world that Christ in glory

came to earth to meet us here.

Jesus calls us to each other:

found in him are no divides.

Race and class and sex and language-

such are barriers he derides.

Join the hand of friend and stranger;

join the hands of age and youth;

join the faithful and the doubter

in their common search for truth.

Jesus calls us to his table

rooted firm in time and space,

where the church in earth and heaven

finds a common meeting place.

Share the bread and wine, his body;

share the love of which we sing;

share the feast for saints and sinners

hosted by our Lord and King.

If you've been walking the same old road for miles and miles

If you've been hearing the same old voice tell the same old lies

If you're trying to feel the same old holes inside

There's a better life

There's a better life

If you've got pain

He's a pain taker If you feel lost

He's a way maker

If you need freedom or saving He's a prison-shaking Saviour

If you've got chains

He's a chain breaker

We've all search for the light of day in the dead of night

We've all found ourselves worn out from the same old fight

We've all run to things we know just ain't right

And there's a better life

There's a better life

If you believe it

If you receive it

If you can feel it

Somebody testify

Lord I Lift Your Name on High

Lord I lift your name on high

Lord I love to sing your praises

I'm so glad you are in my life

I'm so glad you came to save us

You came from heaven to earth, to show the way

From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay

From the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky

Lord I lift your name on high

Lord I lift your name on high

Lord I love to sing your praises

I'm so glad you are in my life

I'm so glad you came to save us

You came from heaven to earth, to show the way

From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay

From the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky

Lord I lift your name on high

You came from heaven to earth, to show the way

From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay

From the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky

Lord I lift your name on high
