Trust in the Lord – our strong city
Our place of perfect peace
Yearn for the Lord – seek earnestly
His mercies never cease
Look to the Lord’s amazing grace
He opens blinded eyes
Hope in the Lord and run your race
In Him one day you’ll rise
Hide in the Lord and in his cross
No judgment now we face
In Him, in Him, we find no loss
Sing, sing His glorious grace
– From a sermon on Isaiah 26
(To the tune of “Amazing Grace”)
A stronghold in our trials here
A refuge in our need
He’ll swallow death and wipe our tears
With richest food will feed
Behold our God who does great things
Come wait upon the Lord
With joyful, grateful hearts let’s sing
For all his love outpoured
– From a sermon on Isaiah 25
(To the tune of “O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing”)
Our God reigns, brings desolation
Because of mankind’s sin
Defiled, devoured, dire destruction
The wicked will not win
Our Lord will reign with righteousness
With power and glory
With justice, love, and faithfulness
For all eternity
He’ll reign over a mighty throng
The redeemed of the earth
We’ll sing for joy a glorious song
Proclaiming His great worth
– From a sermon on Isaiah 13-24
(To the tune “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
Clothe yourself in humility
With truth renew your mind
Practice habits that are godly
Pursue that you might find
We are created – small are we
Dependent – so we pray
We have value – both you and me
Respect others today
Consider your sin and repent
Cry out for His mercy
Believe in Him whom God has sent
Give thanks – He set you free
Jesus died so that we might live
For righteousness today
In love He served and did forgive
Follow His humble way
– From a sermon on humility
(To the tune of “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
Our God reigns and humbles all pride
All arrogance, conceit
All self-exalting I have tried
He’ll pull down and defeat
And so we grieve, humbly repent
We look to God for grace
To forgive, change our fallen bent
To help us run this race
– From a sermon on Isaiah 13-24
(To the tune of “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
Our God reigns and punishes sin
Rejoice – just is the Lord
Repent, receive his salvation
Proclaim his love outpoured
We deserve judgment for our sins
Instead mercy and grace
His justice and compassion wins
For Jesus took our place
– From a sermon on Isaiah 13-24
(To the tune of “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
Our God reigns and calls us to trust
Look to the Holy One
Our Rock who made us from the dust
Who our salvation won
– From a sermon on Isaiah 13-24
(To the tune of “O God Our Help In Ages Past)
Our God reigns o’er the nations’ strife
Look to the Lord today
He rules in all my daily life
Look to him – trust and pray
– From a sermon on Isaiah 13-24
(To the tune of “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
His righteous anger turned away
His comforts ever new
He is my strength and song always
I praise and trust in you
Consider all that He has done
Exalted is His name
Here in our midst – the Holy One!
His praise we now proclaim
– From a sermon on Isaiah 12
(To the tune of “O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing”)
Our hope is in the coming King
The Branch and yet the Root
Who died & rose this hope to bring
The Branch will bear much fruit
He’ll rule with wisdom and with might
He’ll judge with righteousness
Fear of the Lord is his delight
Away with wickedness!
He’ll end the strife, bring in the peace
And all will know the Lord
From violence and the curse – release
Eden will be restored
The remnant comes from all the earth
From every century
Together we’ll proclaim his worth
For all eternity
– From a sermon on Isaiah 11
(To the tune of “O For A Thousand Tongues to Sing”)
