Lead us home to rest

 Our thoughts are vast, they’re dreams in head 

Yet they’re searched by God

You’ve made each sound, You wrote it down 

You’re seed from which we’re sod

Your gracious way You search and know 

Our anxious thoughts You test 

Your goal, You say, You lead the way 

Lead us home to rest 

Your way, oh Lord, is always good 

We glean through prayer and fasting 

In Your Word we’ve read and heard 

Your Way is everlasting 

Your gracious way You search and know 

Our anxious thoughts You test 

Your goal, You say, You lead the way 

Lead us home to rest 

Your gracious way You search and know 

Our anxious thoughts You test 

Your goal, You say, You lead the way 

Lead us home, to rest.

Psalms 139:1-3

Psalm 139

For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.

You have searched me, LORD,

and you know me.

You know when I sit and when I rise;

you perceive my thoughts from afar.

You discern my going out and my lying down;

you are familiar with all my ways.

Psalms 139:23-24

Search me, God, and know my heart;

test me and know my anxious thoughts.

See if there is any offensive way in me,

and lead me in the way everlasting.

Can't hinder The Holy Spirit

 Can't still The Spirit, Holy Spirit speaks 

Praise Him with trumpet, lyre, & harp 

Dance while you play, as you breathe, say 

"Praise You, Your double-edged sword is sharp"

Divides soul & spirit, marrow from a joint 

Judges even heart, all thoughts and stances 

To God nothing's hidden, Your sin escape, it didn't 

He's seen all dirges and dances

We all give our account, stand before God

We're all facing judgement on the day 

All laid bare, every hurt and care 

Well done, if faithful servant, you'll hear Him say

Divides soul & spirit, marrow from a joint 

Judges even heart, all thoughts and stances 

To God nothing's hidden, Your sin escape, it didn't 

He's seen all dirges and dances

Divides soul & spirit, marrow from a joint 

Judges even heart, all thoughts and stances 

To God nothing's hidden, Your sin escape, it didn't 

He's seen all dirges and dances.

Psalms 150:3-6

Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals. Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD.

Hebrews 4:12-13 

12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

Matthew 25:21

21 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’

Too much joy for the blues

 Be careful what you do or say, ain’t no sense in secrets 

In the end you reap just what you sow 

Rich in heart, He does His part 

Angels sure to know which way you go 

Tell my big brother the shape I’m in 

Please put in a Word  for me 

Saint Peter may just shut the gate 

You had your joy you see

Ain’t  too much joy brother is there enough 

Sensed the shape I’s in

Won’t you put in a word for me 

Maybe I’ll see you again

Tell my big brother the shape I’m in 

Please put in a Word  for me 

Saint Peter may just shut the gate 

You had your joy you see

Tell my big brother the shape I’m in 

Please put in a Word  for me 

Saint Peter may just shut the gate 

You had your joy you see.

Psalms 51:17

My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;

a broken and contrite heart

you, God, will not despise.

Luke 16:19-26

The Rich Man and Lazarus

“There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.

“The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’

“But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’

Unity, liberty, & love

 Unity is love, Acceptance God-given 

Let’s not fight over non-essentials

I’ll show love, you show patience 

Meet  at The throne with His credentials 

Liberty is one thing, love is above  

Love is above every other 

What Paul is stating, ain’t no room for hating 

Every single human is your brother 

We are in the world today 

We’re human and we’re spirit 

When we’re choosing unity 

We are right there near it 

Liberty is one thing, love is above  

Love is above every other 

What Paul is stating, ain’t no room for hating 

Every single human is your brother 

Liberty is one thing, love is above  

Love is above every other 

What Paul is stating, ain’t no room for hating 

Every single human is your brother.

Romans 14:1

The Weak and the Strong

Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters.

Debt

 Sin is a debt I continually owe

I’m like the man born blind 

I’ve seen the Son, know He’s The One 

I’ve found All I’ll find 

Worship is my one response

Being brought to Life 

I‘ve been bailed, sin was nailed 

Paid at Cross of Christ 

Loving others now my goal 

My one way to be Him 

Law fulfilled, Christ once killed 

Through love I let ’em see Him 

Worship is my one response

Being brought to Life 

I‘ve been bailed, sin was nailed 

Paid at Cross of Christ 

Worship is my one response

Being brought to Life 

I‘ve been bailed, sin was nailed 

Paid at Cross of Christ.

John 9:35-38

Spiritual Blindness

Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and when he found him, he said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”

“Who is he, sir?” the man asked. “Tell me so that I may believe in him.”

Jesus said, “You have now seen him; in fact, he is the one speaking with you.”

Then the man said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him.

Romans 13:8

Love Fulfills the Law

Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.
