*Praise Song - “How Great Is Our God?”
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, and trembles at his voice.
REFRAIN: How great is our God! Sing with me: how great is our
God! And all will see how great, how great is our God!
(After 2nd verse refrain...Name above all names, worthy of all
praise; my heart will sing, how great is our God!
From age to age he stands, and time is in his hands; beginning and the end,
beginning and the end. The godhead, three in one, Father, Spirit, Son, the
lion and the lamb, the lion and the lamb. REFRAIN…

*Praise Song - “God of This City”
You’re the God of this city, You’re the King of the people, You’re the Lord of
this nation, you are. You’re the light in this darkness, You’re the hope to the
hopeless, You’re the peace to the restless, you are. There is no one like our
God. There is no one like our God. Greater things have yet to come, and
greater things are still to be done in this city. Greater things have yet to
come, and greater things are still to be done in this city. (repeat)

*Praise Song - “You’re Worthy of My Praise”
I will worship with all of my heart. I will praise You with all of my strength.
I will seek You all of my days. I will follow all of Your ways.
REFRAIN: I will give You all my worship, I will give You all my praise.
You alone I long to worship. You alone are worthy of my praise.
I will bow down and hail You as King. I will serve You, give You everything.
I will lift up my eyes to Your throne. I will trust You, trust You alone.
REFRAIN…

As we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
