Sermon Songs: Isaiah 66

On By BrianIn Isaiah Hymns

MusicNotes

Praise to our God, Creator King
A new heaven and earth He’ll bring
And judgment too when He returns
How to live now, let us discern:

We tremble at His holy Word
Humbly obey all that we’ve heard
We will expect opposition
Yes, from this world persecution

In our great hope, we will be glad
Peace and comfort will soon be had
To all the peoples, we will go
God’s saving grace for them to know

We will worship our glorious Lord
For Jesus and His grace out poured
With every nation, every tongue
His praise forevermore be sung

– From a sermon on Isaiah 66
(To the tune of the “Doxology”)

Sermon Songs: Isaiah 64-65

On By BrianIn Isaiah Hymns

MusicNotes

Creator, Father God, we pray
Show forth your zeal and might
Your presence may we know today
Turn back the evil night

We plead O Lord your grace impart
A new work now begin
Revive and soften every heart
And forgive every sin

We cry to you and on you wait
For your final answer
Your just judgment will be the fate
For each wicked sinner

But blessings for those who repent
Who seek the Lord’s mercy
Saved by Jesus whom you have sent
To save us, set us free

Behold the new heaven and earth
Our hope none can destroy
For peace will reign, sin’s doom reversed
We’ll dwell in endless joy

– From a sermon on Isaiah 64-65

And forgive every sin

Sermon Songs: Isaiah 62

On By BrianIn Isaiah Hymns

MusicNotes

Our hope is found in nothing less
Than Christ coming one day
And then we’ll dwell in righteousness
In all we do and say

Instead of ruin – great beauty
Made splendid in His sight
He loves and rejoices in me
In us our Lord delights

Pass thru the gates, in this hope dwell
And to our Savior cling
Prepare the way, His gospel tell
And pray for his coming

Sermon Songs: Isaiah 61

On By BrianIn Isaiah Hymns

MusicNotes

Jesus the Lord’s Anointed One
Proclaims the year of grace
A great reversal, salvation
For us, the human race

The poor receive great hope anew
The humble His mercy
The mourning find His comfort true
The captive liberty

Those ruined by their sin and shame
Once broken and hopeless
Now beautiful in Jesus’ name
Clothed in His righteousness

So go to Jesus every hour
Find grace to meet your need
In all your weakness, seek His power
Upon His favor feed

Our Lord will come, end suffering
All evil He’ll defeat
We’ll praise Him with great rejoicing
Our salvation complete

– From a sermon on Isaiah 61
(To the tune of “O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing”)

Sermon Songs: Isaiah 60

On By BrianIn Isaiah Hymns

MusicNotes

Arise and shine, forever praise, Our gracious glor-ious King
People of God your voices raise, Forever let us sing.
For Christ our Savior will return, New Jerusalem bring
We look forward, our spirits’ yearn, For our Lord’s soon coming.

Our glor-ious Lord with us will dwell, In everlasting light
In brilliance no mere words can tell, He’ll banish the dark night.
His people He will gather all, Each daughter ev’ry son
From all the nations He will call, The children of Zion.

Great songs of praise declare His worth, And tell of His glory.
Great wealth will flow from all the earth, Abundance from the sea
Zion in glor-i-ous beauty, The sights, the smells, the sounds
The brilliance of this new city, Ever expands, abounds.

But what of us, vile and sinful, How shall we enter in?
Our Lord make us each beautiful, Cleansing us from our sin.
We’ll walk in humble righteousness, Trust in Him and His grace
We’ll dwell in peace, joyful gladness, Of sin and death no trace.

This glor-ious day is guaranteed, To all who will receive
Turn from your sin, His offer heed, Your Savior now believe.
And in the trials of these days, To this great promise cling:
We’ll dwell with God, forever praise, Our gracious glor-ious King!

Our Lord, He died and rose for you
To give you hope and make you new

Be faithful to the Lord today
And for our nation kneel to pray
Proclaim Jesus: the only way

Our Lord, He died and rose for you
To give you hope and make you new
So dare to be diff’rent today

Don’t join worship to wickedness
Don’t do good out of selfishness
Pursue justice and righteousness
With great delight, devotedness

Repentance leads to salvation
He strengthens, offers protection
He hears our prayers and guides our ways
Satisfies us all of our days

Our God refreshes and restores
Abundant blessings He outpours
And in the darkness, He’s the Light
Our Lord in whom we take delight

On By BrianIn Isaiah Hymns

MusicNotes

Our Lord, He died and rose for you
To give you hope and make you new
So dare to be diff’rent today
In what you think, you do, and say

Cling to our God and to His ways
Walk righteously all of your days
Turn from all greed and selfishness
All gluttony and laziness

In our world of idolatry
Wearied by its futility
Take refuge in our God above
And in Him find true peace and love

Our God is high, His name holy
He inhabits eternity
Dwells with the contrite and lowly
Revives our hearts and sets us free
