Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul,
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, O my soul.
I'll worship Your holy name.
The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning;
It's time to sing Your song again.
What ever may pass, and whatever lies before me,
Let me be singing when the evening comes.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul,
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, O my soul.
I'll worship Your holy name.
You're rich in love, and You're slow to anger;
Your name is great and Your heart is kind.
For all Your goodness I will keep on singing:
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul,
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, O my soul.
I'll worship Your holy name.
And on that day when my strength is failing,
The end draws near, and my time has come;
Still my soul will sing Your praise unending:
Ten thousand years and then for evermore!
Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul,
Worship His holy name.
Sing like never before, O my soul.
I'll worship Your holy name.
Yes, I'll worship Your holy name,
Lord, I'll worship Your holy name.
Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name,
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory for ever and ever.
Amen.
There are kings, there are queens,
There are big celebrities,
But there is no one else like Jesus.
You can get onto 'X Factor',
Be a famous chef or actor,
But you won't compare to Jesus.
(Repeat)
Jesus reigns, Jesus reigns,
Bigger, brighter than the stars.
Jesus reigns, Jesus reigns
He's the one and only God.
There are footballers and singers,
There are doctors and head teachers,
But the power lies with Jesus.
You can choose to follow Him,
Let Him come and live within,
And then you'll start to be like Jesus.
Jesus reigns, Jesus reigns,
Bigger, brighter than the stars.
Jesus reigns, Jesus reigns
He's the one and only God.

The boy Jesus at the temple
41 Every year Jesus' parents went to Jerusalem for the Festival of the Passover.42 When he was twelve years old, they went up to the festival, according to the custom.43 After the festival was over, while his parents were returning home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but they were unaware of it.44 Thinking he was in their company, they travelled on for a day. Then they began looking for him among their relatives and friends.45 When they did not find him, they went back to Jerusalem to look for him.46 After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions.47 Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and his answers.48 When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother said to him, 'Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.'
49 'Why were you searching for me?' he asked. 'Didn't you know I had to be in my Father's house?'50 But they did not understand what he was saying to them.
51 Then he went down to Nazareth with them and was obedient to them. But his mother treasured all these things in her heart.52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.
Meekness and Majesty,
Manhood and Deity,
In perfect harmony,
The Man who is God.
Lord of eternity
Dwells in humanity,
Kneels in humility
And washes our feet.
Oh, what a mystery,
Meekness and Majesty,
Bow down and worship,
For this is your God,
This is your God.
Father's pure radiance,
Perfect in innocence,
Yet learns obedience
To death on a cross.
Suffering to give us life,
Conquering through sacrifice;
And as they crucify
Prays "Father forgive."
Oh, what a mystery,
Meekness and Majesty,
Bow down and worship,
For this is your God,
This is your God.
Wisdom unsearchable,
God the invisible;
Love indestructible
In frailty appears.
Lord of infinity
Stooping so tenderly
Lifts our humanity
To the heights of His throne.
Oh, what a mystery,
Meekness and Majesty,
Bow down and worship,
For this is your God,
This is your God.
this is your God.
May the mind of Christ my saviour
Live in me from day to day,
By His love and power controlling
All I do and say.
May the word of God dwell richly
In my heart from hour to hour,
So that all may see I triumph
Only through His power.
May the peace of God my Father
Rule my life in everything,
That I may be calm to comfort
Sick and sorrowing.
May the love of Jesus fill me,
As the waters fill the sea;
Him exalting, self abasing,
This is victory.
May I run the race before me,
Strong and brave to face the foe,
Looking only unto Jesus,
As I onward go.
May His beauty rest upon me
As I seek the lost to win,
And may they forget the channel,
Seeing only Him.
