O Great God


VERSE 1

O great God of highest heav’n occupy my lowly heart
Own it all and reign supreme, conquer every rebel pow’r
Let no vice or sin remain that resists Your holy war
You have loved and purchased me, make me Yours forevermore

VERSE 2

I was blinded by my sin, had no ears to hear Your voice
Did not know Your love within, had no taste for heaven’s joys
Then Your Spirit gave me life, opened up Your Word to me
Through the gospel of Your Son gave me endless hope and peace

VERSE 3

Help me now to live a life that’s dependent on Your grace
Keep my heart and guard my soul from the evils that I face
You are worthy to be praised with my every thought and deed
O great God of highest heav’n, glorify Your Name through me

Am I A Soldier of the Cross?

1. Am I a soldier of the cross,
a follower of the Lamb,
and shall I fear to own his cause,
or blush to speak his name?

2. Must I be carried to the skies
on flowery beds of ease,
while others fought to win the prize,
and sailed through bloody seas?

3. Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
to help me on to God?

4. Sure I must fight, if I would reign;
increase my courage, Lord.
I’ll bear the toil, endure the pain,
supported by thy word.
