PRAISE CHORUSES
HALLELUJAH ANYHOW
I believe I'll testify, God's been good to me
Through every test and trail, I've got the victory
The enemy has tried his best to make me turn around, bring me down
But my God has never failed me yet; so, I'm gonna stand my ground.
No matter what comes my way, I'll lift my voice and say,
Hallelujah anyhow
Wait a minute one more time,I think I'll say it again.
God's been so good to me and He's my closet friend.
I've come too far to turn around now
I'm gonna stand, I'm gonna wait; watch God work it somehow
No matter what comes my way, I'll lift my voice and say,
Hallelujah anyhow
Oh Hallelu, Hallelu anyhow
Hallelu, Hallelu anyhow
Hallelu, Hallelu anyhow
No matter what comes my way, I'll lift my voice say
VAMP
Hallelu - anyhow
Hallelu - anyhow - I'll be singing
Hallelu, hallelu, anyhow!

IN JESUS NAME
CHORUS
Jesus, forever the same
Jesus, omnipotent reigns
Jesus, let earth proclaim
that all is forgiven in Jesus' name
REPEAT CHORUS
In Jesus' name, every stronghold is broken
In Jesus' name, the captives go free
In Jesus' name, all things are possible
Yes it's possible in Jesus' name
In Jesus' name, the enemy is scattered
In Jesus' name, this oppression must cease
In Jesus' name, when two or three have gathered
God is with us in Jesus' name
Jesus, Jesus
REPEAT CHORUS
some will try to deceive you
wolf disguising as sheep
no weapon formed against you
It just won't prosper in Jesus' name
In Jesus' name, He's the hope of my salvation
In Jesus' name, I will trust and believe
In Jesus' name, I knock, the door will open
All of my blessings are in Jesus' name
Jesus, Jesus
REPEAT CHORUS
In Jesus' name, all of you are welcome
In Jesus' name, the battle's already won
In Jesus' name, yes blind eyes still open
There's healing power in Jesus' name
In Jesus' name, forgetting those things behind me
In Jesus' name, pressing toward the things that lie ahead
In Jesus' name, He's the prize of my high calling
I'm a new creation in Jesus' name
REPEAT CHORUS
There's power- Jesus
Healing - Jesus
Salvation - Jesus
Forgiveness - Jesus
Yes it's all in HIs name

BELIEVE FOR IT
They say this mountain can't be moved
They say these chains will never break
But they don't know You like we do
There is power in Your name
We've heard that there is no way through
We've heard the tide will never change
They haven't seen what You can do
There is power in Your name
So much power in Your name
CHORUS
Move the immovable
Break the unbreakable
God, we believe
God, we believe for it
From the impossible
We'll see a miracle
God, we believe
God, we believe for it
We know that hope is never lost
For there is still an empty grave
God, we believe, no matter what
There is power in Your name
So much power in Your name
REPEAT CHORUS
You are the way when there seems to be no way
We trust in You, God, You have the final say
You are the way when there seems to be no way
We trust in You, God, You have the final say
REPEAT CHORUS
God, we believe
God, we believe for it

LORD KEEP ME DAY BY DAY
Lord keep me day by day
In a pure and perfect way
I want to live, I want live Lord
in that building not made by hands
I'm just a stranger here
Travelling through this barren land
Something I know, there's a building
in that building not made by hands
Lord keep my body strong
So that I can do no wrong
Lord give me grace just to win this Christian race
to a building not made by hands
_____________________________________________
THE STORM IS PASSING OVER
Encourage my soul and let us journey on
For the night is dark and I am far from home
Thanks be to God, the morning light appears
The storm is passing over
The storm is passing over
The storm is passing over, Hallelu
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halelujah
The storm is passing over
The storm is passing over
The storm is passing over, Hallelu

HOLY COMMUNION
When we approach God's Holy Table, we do so with respect and reverence
for who God is. It is not done with noise, commotion, moving around,
or confusion. Please respect God by respecting His Holy Table.
CONFESSION OF FAITH
The church acknowledges as its head, God, the Creator of all heaven
and earth, Jesus Christ, the Son of God and the Holy Spirit the
Comforter. It acknowledges as brothers and sisters in Christ, all who
share in this confession. It believes that all of those who are
committed to building of God's Kingdom and strive to keep His
commandments are invited to partake of the Lord's Supper and that all
such, with their families, are invited to the Ordinance of Baptism.
AFFIRMATION OF FAITH:
“APOSTLES” CREED
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; and
in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy
Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was
crucified, dead and buried. The third day he arose from the dead; he
ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God, the Father
Almighty: from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Church universal], the communion of
saints, the forgiveness of sin, the resurrection of the body and the
life everlasting. Amen.
THE LORD’S SUPPER
I Corinthians 11: 23 – 34
Pastor: For I have received of the Lord that which also I
delivered unto you. That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was
betrayed took bread:
People: And when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, Take
eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance
of me.
Pastor: After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had
supped, saying, this cup is the New Testament in my blood: this do ye,
as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
People: For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye
do show the Lord’s death till he comes.
Pastor: Wherefore, whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink
this cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood
of the Lord.
People: But let a person examine themselves, and so let them eat
of that bread, and drink of that cup.
Pastor: For they that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and
drinketh damnation to themselves, not discerning the Lord’s body.
People: For this cause, many are weak in [Faith] and sick among
you, and many sleep.
Pastor: For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
People: But when we judge, we are chastened of the Lord, that we
should not be condemned with the world.
Pastor: Wherefore, my friends, when ye come together to eat,
tarry one for another.
All: And if a person hungers, let them eat at home; that
they come not together to this table, disregarding its purpose, and
unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
