Sunday Songs | The Gospel Song

Here is yet another Sunday song! This is a song about the Gospel, told/sung in 24 words. 

The Gospel Song

Holy God in love became

Perfect Man to bear my blame

On the cross He took my sin

By his death I live again

Sunday Songs | The Prodigal

Ah, here's the extremely tardy Sunday Songs post! :) 

This is another of my favourite songs, again by Sovereign Grace Music. The Prodigal tells of the great love of our Heavenly Father and how He will never forget us; He'll always be there ready to forgive us with arms held wide out.

The Prodigal

You held out Your arms, I walked away 

Insolent, I spurned Your face 

Squandering the gifts You gave to me 

Holding close forbidden things 

Destitute, a rebel still, a fool in all my pride 

The world I once enjoyed is death to me 

No joy, no hope, no life 

Where now are the friends that I had bought 

Gone with every penny lost 

What hope could there be for such as I 

Sold out to a world of lies 

Oh to see Your face again, it seems so distant now 

Could it be that You would take me back 

A servant in Your house 

You held out Your arms, I see them still 

You never left, You never will 

Running to embrace me, now I know 

Your cords of love will always hold 

Mercy’s robe, a ring of grace 

Such favor undeserved 

You sing over me and celebrate 

The rebel now Your child

Sunday Songs | Salvation is Born

Another Christian Christmas favourite! :)

Salvation is Born

Come let us worship, come let us adore

Jesus, Messiah, our Savior is born

Carol His glory and sing His sweet Name

Offer a life of thanksgiving and praise

Join with the angels proclaiming to earth

Join with the shepherds in awe of His birth

Join all creation rejoicing this morn

The glory of God-become-man has been born

(Chorus)

Come, let us adore Him

Jesus, the hope of the world

Come, worship before Him

Christ, the Messiah has come

Salvation is born

Prophets foretold Him, the Promise of God

The hope of Salvation and light of the world

Born in a stable and born as a man

Born to fulfill God’s redeeming plan

Sunday Songs | Rejoice

Onto Christmas songs! This song is again by Sovereign Grace :) They have so many good songs and it's wonderful listening to them!

Anyway, here's the song!

REJOICE

All the earth rejoice 

Your Creator reigns 

As the only awesome God 

The Alpha and the Omega 

Who was, is, and is to come 

Let the oceans roar and the mountains sing 

He provides for all He has made 

So be comforted as He rules with grace 

Rejoice, all the earth, rejoice 

All the world rejoice 

For the baby comes 

As a humble prince in the night 

The Word made flesh, Emmanuel 

The Everlasting Light 

Let the warmth of heaven reach the coldest heart 

With the gospel of His grace 

For His heel will bruise the serpent’s head 

Rejoice, all the world, rejoice 

All the church rejoice 

For your King returns 

On a white horse wearing a crown 

He will break the sky with the angel’s shout 

Descending from the clouds 

Then the dead will rise from the land and sea 

All His people will ascend 

We will reign with Him for eternity 

Rejoice, all the church, rejoice

Sunday Songs | Let Your Kingdom Come

Here is another one of my favorite songs! What do you think?

Let Your Kingdom Come

Your glorious cause, O God, engages our hearts
May Jesus Christ be known wherever we are 
We ask not for ourselves, but for Your renown 
The cross has saved us so we pray 
Your kingdom come 

(Chorus)
Let Your kingdom come 
Let Your will be done 
So that everyone might know Your Name 
Let Your song be heard everywhere on earth 
Till Your sovereign work on earth is done 
Let Your kingdom come 


Give us Your strength, O God, and courage to speak 
Perform Your wondrous deedsthrough those who are weak 
Lord use us as You want, whatever the test 
By grace we’ll preach Your gospel 
Till our dying breath

Sunday Songs | Behold Our God

Don't you think singing songs is a wonderful way to praise God? "Sunday Songs" posts will have one of my favorite Christian songs along with (hopefully) the tune of it!

Here's the first one.

Behold Our God

Who has held the oceans in His hands? 
Who has numbered every grain of sand? 
Kings and nations tremble at His voice 
All creation rises to rejoice 

(Chorus)

Behold our God seated on His throne 
Come, let us adore Him 
Behold our King—nothing can compare 
Come, let us adore Him 

Who has given counsel to the Lord? 
Who can question any of His words? 
Who can teach the One who knows all things? 
Who can fathom all His wondrous deeds? 


Who has felt the nails upon His hands? 
Bearing all the guilt of sinful man 
God eternal, humbled to the grave 
Jesus, Savior, risen now to reign 

(Tag) 

You will reign forever 
Let Your glory fill the earth
