1 – Ariel 12

You are beautiful beyond description,
Too marvelous for words,
Too wonderful for comprehension,
Like nothing ever seen or heard.
Who can grasp Your infinite wisdom?
Who can fathom the depths of Your love?
You are beautiful beyond description,
Majesty enthroned above.
And we stand, we stand in awe of You.
We stand, we stand in awe of You.
Mighty God to whom all praise is due,
We stand in awe of You.

See a stream of living water
Outflowing from the throne.
See a tree whose leaves are healing,
Like none this world has ever known.
See the light, pure light of the Father.
See the glory, the splendor of God.
She is beautiful beyond description,
The very Bride, the wife of God.
And in her, we dwell inside of You;
We dwell in her inside of You.
In You, dear Lord, all praise is due
We dwell inside of You.

Here Oh Lord, have we prepared a resting place
Here Oh Lord, we wait for you alone

For we’re filled with His fire
We face unafraid, the plans that He’s made
Living in the Body of the Lord

Formed into the dwelling of the Lord

8 – My Eyes Have Seen The Glory

(Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic)

My eyes have seen the glory
Of the handiwork of God;
He has liberated highways
Which for ages went unplod.
Now He points us to a pathway
Which none but the ancients trod.
OUR GOD IS MOVING ON!

Chorus: (after each verse)
Glory, Glory, Hallelujah! (ETC.)
(Repeat last line of verse)

I have seen Christ in the meetings
Of the saints throughout this land
As He speaks within the gath’ring
By a way unknown to man;
By the whisper of His Spirit
The whole body He commands.
THE CHURCH IS MOVING ON!

He has sounded out a calling
Which was heard but once before;
See it is the walls of worship
Which at last He shall restore.
So be quick, my brothers, answer
As they did in days of yore,
FOR CHRIST IS MOVING ON!

Oh, the Bride is almost ready;
See her head is now adorned.
Look the city has been taken,
And the throne has been restored.
So lift up, you gates of praises,
And swing wide you festive doors;
OUR KING IS COMING IN!

Through the eyes of your Lord
What a glorious Church

Called to fellowship sweet,
She now sits at His feet,
Learning how to be one
Being made in His image.

Faithful now she will be.
All creation shall see
The glory of God
And be truly set free

From the bondage of corruption
Into glorious liberty.

Christ in her,
And she in Christ

God’s completed mystery!

And infinitely more,
And every day You’re dearer
Than You were the day before

Chorus:
The half (the half)
Cannot be fancied
Of such (of such)
A treasure store,
And every day You’re dearer
Than You were the day before

Your glory broke upon us
When we saw You in the night;
You gave us light and sight
And promised we would be Your wife.
You fill and satisfy our
Longing spirits more and more.
And every day You’re dearer
Than You were the day before.

Chorus

My life is often dreary,
But You come in sweet release
To take me to a place where
Only God and man can meet.
You give me everything, and yet
There’s always something more.
And every day You’re sweeter
Than You were the day before.

And Jesus, tenderly,
I love how You love me.

From the River of living stones
Grows a city, a house for the Lord

Well I’ve seen a woman whose beauty is beyond compare
Her garments are eternal and glory shines through her hair
She’s a Bride without blemish, she is holy, pure, and true
She’s the woman God has dreamed of, fragrant with
heaven’s due
And she is radiant with Life
A holy city, the Lamb’s Wife
She’s Ekklesia (Ekklesia), she’s Ekklesia (Ekklesia)

Well she’s making herself ready for the marriage of the
Lamb her Groom
And she is clothed with His image in the newness of
Jerusalem
And for her hand He was crucified
And in His bosom she’ll abide
She’s Ekklesia (Ekklesia), she’s Ekklesia (Ekklesia)

We have gathered here from all over town
For there is a wondrous secret all of us have found,
That through Christ the Son all of us are one,
So you see we’re all one family.

Oh, our spirits soar and our praise outpours
As we see all the saints gathered here.

And oh, that wonderful feeling
Just to know it’s here we belong!
And oh, that wonderful feeling
When one more member of His Body comes along.

But there’s nothing else on earth
That we would rather do.
Join right in and sing, with us praises bring,
And together we’ll joy in our Lord.

To God be the glory, great things He has done;
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate that all may go in.

Chorus:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
We’ve come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
His Spirit is in us, and we are all one

O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
To every believer the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

Chorus

Great things He has taught us, great things He has done,
And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
But purer, and higher, and greater will be
Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.

24 – Great is God, Great Be His Praises

(Tune: Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee)

Great is God, great be His praises
In His city, in His church.
Beautiful for elevation
She’s the joy of all the earth.
In her, God is known as refuge,
Though the enemies conspired.
When they saw her, then they marveled,
Shook with fear, and then retired.

(Sisters)
Christ Himself the Church is building;
Hades gates cannot prevail;
Satan’s hosts are gripped with terror,
Pained like women in travail.
Like a wind, the Holy Spirit
Scatters all the shops of night.
Brothers, let us trust the Spirit
Not our power, not our might.

(Brothers)
Walk about the church my sisters;
Count her towers, mark them well.
Set your hearts upon her bulwarks,
All her praise your children tell.
God is our God, now and ever,
He our guide ev’n unto death.
While we live our lives are for Him
While we breathe, praise is our breath.

(All)
As Your name, so are Your praises
Unto all the ends of earth.
Righteousness fills up your right hand;
How we marvel at Your worth.
Let Mount Zion joy with laughter;
Let her daughters too be glad
For Your judgments will bring justice,
Let the Church with joy be clad.

You look happy to meet me.

Strong in my spirit

39 – Have You Heard Him, Seen Him, Known Him

(Tune: Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing)

Have you heard Him, seen Him, known Him?
Is not yours a captured heart?
Chief among ten thousand own Him,
Joyful choose the better part.

Idols once they won you, charmed you,
Lovely things that turned my face
So it was that sin deceived me
Till the Lord outpoured His grace.

What has stripped the seeming beauty
From the idols of the earth?
Not a sense of right or duty,
But the sight of peerless worth.

Not the crushing of these idols,
With its bitter pain and smart,
But the beaming of His beauty,
The unveiling of His heart.

Who extinguishes their candle
Till they hail the rising sun?
Who discards the garb of winter
Till the summer has begun?

Tis that look that melted Peter
Tis the face that Stephen saw,
Tis the heart that wept with Mary,
Can alone from idols draw.

Draw and win and fill completely,
Till the cup o’erflows the brim;
What have we to do with idols
Who have fellowshipped with Him?

And we’ll all be satisfied

By the Lord in His house,
For we know each member

Has a portion of this Christ,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
And when we come together, we’ll
Display, display

The depths and riches of this Christ,
The newness which is in His life,

And we’ll all be built up
Into the House of God.

(Tune: The Rose)

Some say church, it is a building
Brick and stone, filled with pews
Some say church, it is a service
Where you must pay your dues
Some say church, it is tradition
That should not be changed
We say church, it’s ekklesia
His body has a name

It’s His children brought together
By His Spirit from inside
Following the Lord forever
In Him we abide
It’s His bride, that was chosen
To be blameless in His sight
His inheritance is in her
She is kind of His own kind

She was hid in Him for ages
Before all things began
And He’s given all the blessings
In the riches of this land
We’re the praise of His glory
Marked by His own hand
She’s the church, and we are in her
With Jesus as our Head!

With His manna He does feed and supplies our every need
Oh, ’tis sweet to sup with Jesus all the time

“Come and dine,” the Master calls, “come and dine”
We may feast at Jesus’ table all the time
He who fed the multitude, turned the water into wine
To the hungry calls now, “come and dine”

The disciples came to land, thus obeying Christ’s command
For the Master called to them, “Now come and dine”
There they found their heart’s desire, bread and fish upon the fire
Thus He satisfies the hungry ev’ry time

Soon the Lamb will take His bride to be ever at His side
All the hosts of heaven will assembled be
Oh, ’twill be a glorious sight, all the saints in spotless white
And with Jesus they will feast eternally

To partake of You throughout the night and day
So the food we daily eat and the water we do drink

One to another, Your love we express
You’re the greatest of treasures that we now possess

53 – Lord of the Dance

I danced in the morning when the world was young
I danced in the moon, and the stars, and the sun
I came down from heaven and I danced on the Earth
At Bethlehem I had My birth

(Chorus)
Dance, dance wherever you may be
“I am the Lord of the Dance,” said He
“And I lead you all wherever you may be
And I lead you all in the dance,” said He

I danced for the scribes and the Pharisees
They wouldn’t dance, they wouldn’t follow Me
I danced for the fishermen, James and John
They came with Me so the dance went on

Chorus

I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame
The holy people said it was a shame
They ripped, they stripped, they hung Me high
Left Me there on the cross to die

Chorus

I danced on a Friday when the world turned black
It’s hard to dance with the devil on your back
They buried My body they thought I was gone
But I am the dance, and the dance goes on

Chorus

They cut Me down but I leapt up high
I am the Life that will never, never die
I’ll live in you if you’ll live in Me
I am the Lord of the dance, said He

54 – In Christ Alone

In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My comforter, my all in all
Here in the love of Christ I stand

In Christ alone, Who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
‘Til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ

No guilt of life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
‘Til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand

Here is love, vast as the ocean
Loving-kindness as the flood
When the Prince of Life, our ransom
Shed for us His precious blood

Who His love will not remember?
Who can cease to sing His praise?
He can never be forgotten
Throughout heaven’s eternal days

On the mount of crucifixion
Fountains opened deep and wide
Through the floodgates of God’s mercy
Flowed a vast and gracious tide

Grace and love, like mighty rivers
Poured incessant from above
And heaven’s peace and perfect justice
Kissed a guilty world in love

Who His love will not remember?
Who can cease to sing His praise?
He can never be forgotten
Throughout Heaven’s eternal days

But wholly trust in Jesus’ Name

When darkness veils His lovely face
I rest on His unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil

Support me in the whelming flood

Oh may I then in Him be found
Dressed in His righteousness alone
Faultless to stand before the throne

68 – Sins Away (The Lion Sleeps Tonight)

Chorus:
(sisters) He has taken our sins away (2x)
(brothers) Sins away, sins away, sins away, sins away (2x)

In a village, a tiny village,
In Bethlehem one day,
A babe was born, who was Christ the Lord
He’s taken our sins away.

In the temple, the mighty temple,
Late into the night,
He preached with wisdom,
He taught the teachers,
He’s growing: Jesus Christ.

(Chorus)

(softly:)
In the city, the holy city
Which God had called his own,
They beat our Lord and they crucified him
And laid him in a tomb.
(faster)
Three days later some women sought him
At the break of day.
The tomb was empty for Christ had risen
And conquered death that day.

(chorus)

Now he reigns at the Father’s right hand
In heaven far above
And all that’s left is for us to trust the
Completeness of his love.

(chorus)

He has taken our sins away.

Our heart doth sing for joy;
And sing we must, for Christ we have:
Oh, what a Christ have we!

With healing in His wings.

With fruit abundant, sweet;
Our hunger He doth satisfy;
Of Him we daily eat.

Whence living waters burst;
He is the fountain in our heart
Which quenches all our thirst.

Our comfort and our health,
Our peace, our rest, our joy, our hope,
Our glory and our wealth.

Our boast and righteousness,
Our victory and redemption sure,
Our truth and holiness.

In comeliness replete,

Our Christ is All in all.

Our heart doth sing for joy;
And we must sing, and sing again;
Oh, what a Christ have we!

If you take His yoke, your burdens are lighter for sure
And we are all buoyant, a wonderful thing
Cause everyone glistens when we start to sing
We’re so grateful and wowed
All we want is to sing Him out loud

So we say
Thank you for the Bread, the life He’s giving
Thanks for all the joy it’s bringing
Who can live without Him, we ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without the Son for our souls what are we?
So we say thank you for the Bread
For giving it freely
