O Worship the King

Scripture that we are singing...
This week as we prepare our hearts for worship Sunday, I thought it would be good if I simply wrote the scripture that we are singing this week. In your worship time this weekend, pray through these scriptures. On Sunday morning we can proclaim together that God is the Defender, Redeemer, Shield, Ancient of Days and Friend.
        
Everlasting God - Brown
Isaiah 40:27-31 
 27 Why do you say, O Jacob, and complain, O Israel, "My way is hidden from the LORD; my cause is disregarded by my God"?
 28 Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.
 29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
 30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
 31 but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

O Worship the King - Robert Grant (1778-1838) Tomlin
Psalm 104
 1 Praise the LORD, O my soul.O LORD my God, you are very great; you are clothed with splendor and majesty.
 2 He wraps himself in light as with a garment; he stretches out the heavens like a tent
 3 and lays the beams of his upper chambers on their waters. He makes the clouds his chariot and rides on the wings of the wind.

King of Glory - Tomlin
Psalm 24:7-15 (New International Version)
 7 Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
 8 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.
 9 Lift up your heads, O you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
 10 Who is he, this King of glory? The LORD Almighty— he is the King of glory. 
       Selah

God of this City - McCann
This is a response song where we as a church can agree that our great God is active and has a plan for the University City area. The love of Christ that we have declared together should be demonstrated and announced to those God has brought in our relational world (our Oikos). This is our spiritual act of worship.

Romans 12:1
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.
