His Mercy Is More

Praise the Lord,
His mercy is more.
Stronger than darkness, new every morn.
Our sins, they are many;
His mercy is more.

What love could remember
No wrongs we have done?
Omniscient, all knowing,
He counts not their sum.
Thrown into a sea without bottom or shore.
Our sins, they are many;
His mercy is more.

What patience would wait
As we constantly roam?
What Father, so tender is calling us home?
He welcomes the weakest,
The vilest, the poor.
Our sins, they are many;
His mercy is more.

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.
Our sins, they are many;
His mercy is more.

Jesus Shall Reign

Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
Does its successive journeys run;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
Till sun shall rise and set no more.

Blessings abound where'er He reigns;
The pris'ner leaps to lose his chains,
The weary find eternal rest,
And all the sons of want are blessed.

To our King be highest praise,
Rising through eternal days.
Just and faithful He shall reign,
Jesus shall reign.

People and realms of every tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song,
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His name.

Let every creature rise and bring
Blessing and honor to our King;
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud “Amen”!

How Great Thou Art (Until That Day)

O Lord my God,
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works Thy hand hath made.
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
Thy pow'r throughout
The universe displayed.

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!”

And when I think
That God, His Son not sparing,
Sent Him to die -
I scarce can take it in
That on the cross,
My burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died
To take away my sin.

When Christ shall come
With shout of acclamation,
And take me home
What joy shall fill my heart!
Then shall I bow
In humble adoration,
And there proclaim,
“My God, how great Thou art!”

Until that day
When heaven bids us welcome,
And as we walk
This broken warring world,
Your kingdom come,
Deliver us from evil,
And we'll proclaim,
“Our God, how great You are!”
With hope we'll sing,
“Our God, how great You are!”

Daniel 7:13–14

“I saw in the night visions, and behold, with the clouds of heaven there came one like a son of man, And He came to the Ancient of Days and was presented before Him. And to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him; His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away and His kingdom one that shall not be destroyed.”

Ancient of Days

Though the nations rage,
Kingdoms rise and fall,
There is still one King
Reigning over all.
So, I will not fear
For this truth remains:
That my God is the Ancient of Days.

None above Him, none before Him.
All of time in His hands.
For His throne,
It shall remain and ever stand.
All the power, all the glory,
I will trust in His name.
For my God is the Ancient of days.

Though the dread of night
Overwhelms my soul,
He is here with me.
I am not alone.
Oh, His love is sure,
And He knows my name.
For my God is the Ancient of Days.

Though I may not see
What the future brings,
I will watch and wait
For the Savior king.
Then, my joy complete,
Standing face to face
In the presence of the Ancient of Days.
