O Word of God incarnate
Who was before time began
Who laid aside His glory
To become like us in man.
Who lived a life without sin
In all that He did and said
Obeying His Father
And going to the cross.

O Word of God incarnate
Who was before time began
Who laid aside His glory
To become like us in man.
Who in the garden prayed
“Not my will but Yours be done”
And on the cruel cross
Suffered the wrath of God.

O Word of God incarnate
Who was before time began
Who laid aside His glory
To become like us in man.
Who died and then was buried
But rose on the third day
Defeating death and Satan
O what a glorious day.

O Word of God incarnate
Who was before time began
Who laid aside His glory
To become like us in man.
My Savior, My Redeemer
Who purchased me with His blood
Once under Satan’s dominion
But now a slave to Christ.

O Word of God incarnate
Who was before time began
Who laid aside His glory
To become like us in man.
O glorify the Savior
My heart doth shout in praise
The mighty Lamb of God
Jesus, the word made flesh.

Indulging the desires of the flesh and mind
dead in my trespasses and sins.

But God, being rich in mercy, granted me repentance.
But God, being rich in mercy, saved me from His wrath.
But God, being rich in mercy, turned me from a child of the devil
into a child of the King of kings.
But God, being rich in mercy, turned me from a child of wrath into a child of God.
But God, being rich in mercy, saved me by grace through faith alone.
But God, being rich in mercy, turned my heart of stone into a heart of flesh.
But God, being rich in mercy, gave me a new heart with new desires.
But God, being rich in mercy, made me into a new creation.
But God, being rich in mercy, made me alive together with Jesus Christ.
But God, being rich in mercy, sealed me with the Holy Spirit.
But God, being rich in mercy, will complete the work that He began in me.
But God…

All glory to God
the almighty King
the Lord of lords
and Creator of all things

The Alpha, Omega
who was and who is
all glorious, most gracious
full of mercy, He is

All glory to God
the Savior of men
who draws to Himself
and saves all whom He calls

The author of life
and perfecter of faith
He calls to His own
and they hear and obey

All glory to God
the keeper of men
who preserves each one
that none are snatched from His hand

Who sanctifies
and grows His own children in faith
till that glorious day
when we see Him face to face

Amen.

In love You predestined us
to adoption as children of God
through Jesus Christ our Savior
according to the will of Your good pleasure

Holy, blameless I am
His grace freely lavished on me
all of these
because of Jesus Christ my Lamb

We’ve been redeemed through His blood
all our sins forgiven
the mystery now made known
salvation to all who believe

In Him we have an inheritance
sealed with the Holy Spirit who is given as a pledge
to the redemption of God’s own possession
to the praise of His glory

Holy, blameless I am
His grace freely lavished on me
all of these
because of Jesus Christ my Lamb

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ
who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in the heavenlies
all my salvation, because of Him
who works all things after the counsel of His will

Holy, blameless I am
His grace freely lavished on me
all of these
because of Jesus Christ my Lamb

As they kneel with hands raised up, lifting up their prayers,
The soldiers with guns come in and take them away.

Off to a tiny room, the daddy is taken,
strengthened by the Lord as he tells them of a Savior who saves

Hours and Hours go by, now badly beaten, this man of God sings out
As he draws his last breath

Chorus:
Blessed are those, the blood of the martyrs, our brothers and sisters in the faith
Can you hear, the song of the martyrs, sweet and beautiful are they

Next the mother’s called in, her children follow,
as they see the body and blood on the floor

As they pray for what to share, they’re beaten and cursed at
But Christ’s love is stronger as they share the good news

With tears flowing down from their eyes, and love for their captors
They tell of the one who loves them, and died for their sins

The soldiers mock each one, refusing to listen, and then they all sing out
As they draw their last breath

Chorus

Bridge:
Holy, holy to the Lamb
who was slain for our sins
Worthy, worthy is our Lord
the name that’s above all names

Holy, holy is our Lord
to You we give all our praise
Worthy, worthy is our Lord
For us to die is gain as we lift up Jesus name
Hear us singing(2x)

Chorus

Staying close by His side
Listening close to the voice of the Master.

No working on my part to keep my salvation
Because it’s all of grace through faith

Kept for Jesus Christ
I will rejoice and praise Him all the rest of my days
Knowing I serve a Savior who not only saves
But also keeps those who are His.

Kept for Jesus Christ
As the Lord continues to mold and shape me
And use this lump of clay however He chooses
Until that day when I see Him face to face.

By it, I know who I am in Christ
And by the Holy Spirit I am sealed until the day of redemption
By it, I know the truth
And by the Holy Spirit, He brings to mind the truths

By it, I am pierced to the heart
And by it also, I am comforted
By it, I know more of the one true God
whose throne I can approach
And by it also, I realize how holy and majestic He really is –
He is to be revered

Sweeter than honey from the comb
More costly than the costliest of diamonds
More precious than all the jewels in the world

Food that will last an eternity
And that feeds the body
Oh how by it, my soul is nourished

God’s word.
