God Will Be Found

Original Music: Londonderry; tra­di­tion­al Ir­ish Mel­o­dy
Psalm 32:5-6, Rom. 1:17, Heb. 11:6

God will be found by you who seek with all your heart.
God will not hide his face to those who praise.
Your heart will leap with joy as you obey his word
Turn now to Christ, for he has made the way.

Our God is great. His loving kindness will not fail.
His grace is strong to save you from his wrath.
Only in Christ is found the peace and joy of God.
Deny yourself and turn to Christ in faith to live.

Create in me a clean and willing heart to love.
Wash me in Thy new mercies from above.
My will is still an enemy of heaven’s gate.
Take all from me and give me righteous faith.

Our God is great. His loving kindness will not fail.
His grace is strong to save you from his wrath.
Only in Christ is found the peace and joy of God.
Deny yourself and turn to Christ in faith to live.

Take up the cross and live a life that seems so strange.
Invest this life in gospel ministry.
Live among men that they may see your faith as gain.
And know that Christ is worth the life you leave.

Our God is great. His loving kindness will not fail.
His grace is strong to save you from his wrath.
Only in Christ is found the peace and joy of God.
Deny yourself and turn to Christ in faith to live.

I Believe This

Original Music: Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior; William H. Doane, 1832-1915.

I believe in God the Father, Christ his only son.
I believe the Holy Spirit, God yet three in one.

Chorus: I believe this, my heart’s only cry,
Faith alone in Christ exalted. I shall never die.

I believe the incarnation, God became a man.
Both divine and human vesture, Come redeem God’s plan.

Chorus: I believe this, my heart’s only cry,
Faith alone in Christ exalted. I shall never die.

I believe the death of Jesus, God atoned for sin.
I believe in his perfection, purged the guilt within.

Chorus: I believe this, my heart’s only cry,
Faith alone in Christ exalted. I shall never die.


I believe the resurrection, Christ rose from the dead.
He ascended into heaven, reigns as priestly head.

Chorus: I believe this, my heart’s only cry,
Faith alone in Christ exalted. I shall never die.


I believe in Christ returning for the bride he loves.
He will vindicate her glory, persevere in love.

Chorus: I believe this, my heart’s only cry,
Faith alone in Christ exalted. I shall never die.
