OFFERTORY
HOW TO BE LOVED
WORDS AND MUSIC: CHRIS SPARKS
God said to Moses:
“All the earth belongs to me”
And we sing our praises to God as Creator
God showed to Joseph:
Evils can be worked for good
And we sing our praises
To God as our Sov'reign
(Chorus)
Hear our song
O Lord, how long we wait for your return
And accept our praise,
O Lord, your ways are high above
And we're down here learnin'
How to be loved
God gave to David
Green pasture still water
And we sing our praises
To God as Good Shepherd
We’re seekers we're finders
With reason to keep the faith
Redeemed and reminded
Who's worthy of all our praise
ORDER OF WORSHIP
