Today's theme: Choose Surrender


To set the scene for worship, the band played the hymn tune, 'Holy Ground'.

When I walk through the doors I sensed His presence
And I knew this was a place where love abounds
For this is a temple the God we love abides here
Oh we are standing in His presence on holy ground

We are standing on holy ground
For I know that there are angels all around
Let us praise Jesus now
For we are standing in His presence on holy ground

In His presence I know there is joy beyond all measure
And at His feet sweet peace of mind can still be found
For when we have a need He is still the answer
Reach out and claim it for we are standing on holy ground

We are standing on holy ground
For I know that there are angels all around
Let us praise Jesus now
For we are standing in His presence on holy ground

During worship the band played Paul Sharman's arrangement of 'Turn your Eyes Upon Jesus'.

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.


Our worship today was led by our officers Majors David and Gillian Burns.

Major David reminded us that we must spend quality time in God's presence, each day. He then challenged us to surrender every part of our lives to God, so we fully belong to Him.


The band brought our worship to a conclusion by playing the hymn tune 'O Happy Day'.

O happy day that fixed my choice
On Thee, my Saviour and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its raptures all abroad.

Chorus
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away!
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing every day;
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away!

O happy bond that seals my vows
To him who merits all my love!
Let cheerful praises fill his house
While to his blessed throne I move.

'Tis done, the great transaction's done!
I am my Lord's and he is mine;
He drew me, and I followed on,
Charmed to confess the voice divine.

Today's theme: Grace!

As the call to worship, the band played the hymn tune, 'Amazing Grace.

Amazing grace! how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch; like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!

The Lord hath promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.

When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun.

During worship the band played 'Everlasting Hope' (Paul Sharman). It features the hymn tune 'Great Is Thy Faithfulness'.

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own great presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today, and bright hope for tomorrow
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside.


Our worship today was led by our officers Majors David and Gillian Burns.

Major David reminded us that God's grace is free for each one of us - we just need to respond to Him. God's lavish love for us is His abundant and everlasting grace.


The band brought our worship to a conclusion by playing the hymn tune 'Grace Alone'.

Every promise we can make
Every prayer and step of faith
Every difference we will make
Is only by His grace
Every mountain we will climb
Every ray of hope we shine
Every blessing left behind
Is only by His grace

Chorus
Grace alone which God supplies
Strength unknown He will provide
Christ in us our Cornerstone
We will go forth in grace alone

Every soul we long to reach
Every heart we hope to teach
Everywhere we share His peace
Is only by His grace
Every loving word we say
Every tear we wipe away
Every sorrow turned to praise
Is only by His grace
