I am not skilled to understand
What God has willed
what God has planned
I only know at His right hand
Stands One who is my Savior
I take Him at His word and deed
Christ died to save me this I read
And in my heart I find a need
Of Him to be my Savior
That He would leave
His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange
so once did I
Before I knew my Savior
My Savior loves,
My Savior lives,
My Savior’s always there for me
My God He was, my God He is,
My God is always gonna be…
My Savior loves,
My Savior lives,
My Savior’s always there for me
My God He was, my God He is,
My God is always gonna be
Yes living dying let me bring
My strength my solace
from this spring
That He who lives
to be my King
Once died to be my Savior
That He would leave
His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange
so once did I
Before I knew my Savior
SING 2 TIMES
My Savior loves,

My God is always gonna be

Before I spoke a word
You were singing over me
You have been so so
good to me
Before I took a breath
You breathed Your life in me
You have been so so
kind to me
O the overwhelming
never-ending reckless
Love of God
O it chases me down
fights ’til I’m found
Leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn’t earn it
I don’t deserve it
Still You give Yourself away
O the overwhelming,
never-ending
Reckless love of God, yeah
When I was Your foe
still Your love fought for me
You have been so so
good to me
When I felt no worth
You paid it all for me
You have been so so
kind to me
O the overwhelming
never-ending reckless
Love of God
O it chases me down
fights ’til I’m found
Leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn’t earn it
I don’t deserve it
Still You give Yourself away
O the overwhelming,
never-ending
Reckless love of God, yeah
SING 4 TIMES
There’s no shadow
You won’t light up
Mountain You won’t climb up
Coming after me
There’s no wall
You won’t kick down
Lie You won’t tear down
Coming after me…
SING CHORUS
Creation knows the voice
That spoke into the void
The breath that brought
the dust to life
And sang the stars to form
The darkness fears Your voice
That drove it back before
And though the night is long
I know Your light
Will drive it back once more
One word from You
Things change on Your authority
Your word it’s true
Things change on Your authority
My fight is not my own
Its end is in your hands
I worship You because
I know all things
Must bow to Your command
One word from You
Things change on Your authority
Your word it’s true
Things change on Your authority…
One word from You
Things change on Your authority
Your word it’s true
Things change on Your authority
Will heaven not prevail
And strongholds not be moved
Will spirits not be silenced
And cower at His rule
For if my God is for me
Then what have I to fear
And I will not deny Him
The glory that is His
Heaven will prevail
And strongholds will be moved
Spirits will be silenced
And cower at His rule
I know my God is for me
So what have I to fear
For nothing will deny Him
The glory that is His
One word from You
Things change on Your authority
Your word it’s true
Things change on Your authority
Heaven will prevail
And strongholds will be moved
Spirits will be silenced
And cower at His rule
I know my God is for me
So what have I to fear
For nothing will deny Him
The glory that is His!
One word from You
Things change on Your authority!
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother,
To Philemon our dear friend and fellow worker— 2 also to Apphia our sister and Archippus our fellow soldier—and to the church that meets in your home:
3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, 5 because I hear about your love for all his holy people and your faith in the Lord Jesus. 6 I pray that your partnership with us in the faith may be effective in deepening your understanding of every good thing we share for the sake of Christ. 7 Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the Lord’s people.
8 Therefore, although in Christ I could be bold and order you to do what you ought to do, 9 yet I prefer to appeal to you on the basis of love. It is as none other than Paul—an old man and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus— 10 that I appeal to you for my son Onesimus, who became my son while I was in chains. 11 Formerly he was useless to you, but now he has become useful both to you and to me.
12 I am sending him—who is my very heart—back to you. 13 I would have liked to keep him with me so that he could take your place in helping me while I am in chains for the gospel. 14 But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that any favor you do would not seem forced but would be voluntary. 15 Perhaps the reason he was separated from you for a little while was that you might have him back forever— 16 no longer as a slave, but better than a slave, as a dear brother. He is very dear to me but even dearer to you, both as a fellow man and as a brother in the Lord.
17 So if you consider me a partner, welcome him as you would welcome me. 18 If he has done you any wrong or owes you anything, charge it to me. 19 I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand. I will pay it back—not to mention that you owe me your very self. 20 I do wish, brother, that I may have some benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ. 21 Confident of your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I ask.
22 And one thing more: Prepare a guest room for me, because I hope to be restored to you in answer to your prayers.
23 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you greetings. 24 And so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas and Luke, my fellow workers.
25 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
Forgiveness
Forgiveness is choosing not to dwell on the offense or continue to rehearse it in your thoughts.
Forgiveness is choosing not to keep a record (or keep score).
Reconciliation
To remove any barrier or offense that stands in the way of a healthy and whole relationship.
To be reconciled is to be restored to friendship or harmony.
Thank you for worshipping with us this evening and we hope to see you again very soon!
