“Until That Day Comes” lyrics
Verse 1
There will come a day
When God will be our light
And the dark of night
Will be sent to its grave
And there will come a time
When we will live forever
In a city that will never pass away
Pre-Chorus
Oh how my soul
Yearns and even faints
Chorus
But until that day comes
I will go and warn the darkness
That the light of Jesus Christ
Has overcome
And until that day comes
I will speak to all injustice
That the moment of
Its ending is sure to come
(Oh the day will surely come)
Verse 2
We who are His church
Must prepare His coming
And go and tell
The nations of His worth
And let us give our lives
To the calling that is on us
To bind up every
Wound and every hurt
Interlude
Oh the day will surely come
Oh the day will surely come
Oh the day will surely come
Bridge
Oh the day will surely come
(All things will be made right
We'll stand in holy light)
Oh the day will surely come
(A pure and spotless bride
Before the Lord most high)
Oh the day will surely come
(On the dawning of that day
Old things will pass away)
Oh the day will surely come
(Until we see His face
Let us prepare the way)

In steady pursuit
A story composed

lyrics
VERSE 1
When everything is wrong
And I wanna make it right
When it seems injustice
Has the final word
When I wanna run away
Or take up my sword and fight
Cause I can't just sit
And watch the way we hurt
CHORUS
I see my Savior
Bound by accusers
Blessing the hands
That take His life
I hear Him saying
“Father forgive them”
Showing the world
What love is like
POST-CHORUS
Can you hear Him say,
“Put your weapons away
And follow me”?
VERSE 2
Faith will be my sight
I'll fall on my knees to rise
Until Your Kingdom
Comes in all the earth
And the darkness of the tomb
Meets the brilliance of Your light
Yours will always be the final Word
BRIDGE
We lift our eyes above
We don't battle flesh and blood
We lift our eyes above
To Jesus

Together At The Cross lyrics
Verse 1
Welcome saint and sinner
There's room enough for all
We're no longer cursed
No longer lost
We are now His children
By election and by blood
That joins us here
Together at the cross
Chorus
Ev'ry pilgrim ev'ry prodigal
And ev'ry wayward son
Will find all that's worth finding
As they gaze upon the One
Who took on flesh
Became the Lamb
And bridged the gap
Of God and man
And joins us here
Together at the cross
And joins us here
Together at the cross
Verse 2
Standing in the chasm
Of a vast eternity
A beam of hope
From Heaven down to dust
His love has spanned the distance
As far as west from east
And joins us here
Together at the cross
Bridge
Life and death have intersected
From the depths we're resurrected
Hallelujah
Verse 3
When I was lost You found me
When I was slave You freed
Enraptured now
I'm yoked to liberty
Like a lover You have sought us
And won the battle for us
And joined us here
Together at the cross

Verse 1
Why are you sad oh my soul
Why so angry now with yourself
Do you not know there is hope
Don’t you know this isn’t the end
Pre-Chorus
Oh I know that
With all these shadows
That somewhere there is sunshine
Out of sight but morning’s coming
Chorus
One more one more step
I know you can do it
One more one more step
Yes I know you’ll make it through
One more one more step
Slowly and steady
You will win this race
One more one more step
And you’ll reach
The promised land
Verse 2
There can be peace in the trouble
It’s the art of lifting your eyes
There can be joy in the sorrow
It may hurt oh but still
You’ve got to keep singing
Bridge
Oh don't don't you
Dare give up now
The wall’s about
To come down
Don’t you dare
Take your last breath
You’re almost out
Of the wilderness

And the world will fall
To it's knees as we go home

There will come a day
Standing face to face
In a moment we will be like Him
He will wipe our eyes dry
Take us up to His side
And forever we will be His
This is the Kingdom Now: A Christmas Devotional
How and where did God establish the reign of His Kingdom on earth? How would you normally expect a king to come and announce his rule and reign over a province? In Roman times, it would have been with a large procession of people.
This Is The Kingdom Now: A Christmas Devotional
How and where did God establish the reign of His Kingdom on earth? How would you normally expect a king to come and announce his rule and reign over a province? In Roman times, it would have been with a large procession of people. Officials would go before the king to announce his coming and the townsfolk would come out to meet and welcome him at the city gates. It would have been a grand entry, indeed.
But how did our King, King Jesus, enter the scene? What about His grand entrance and the crowds of people surrounding Him at His coming? How was He welcomed and greeted? Where did He make His grand entrance? In a royal palace surrounded by prestigious attendants? No, our King did not have any of those things. He was greeted by the sights and smells of farm animals and manure. He was born in a messy, lowly place and was laid to rest in a feeding trough for cattle. “What kind of King is this?” one might ask. “And, what makes Him so kingly? What kind of Kingdom does He belong to?” In the words of Jesus, “My Kingdom is not of this world.”
Jesus didn’t need a grand entry like the kings of this world needed because His Kingdom existed long before the foundations of the earth were laid. Today we celebrate the reality of His Kingdom breaking into the earth. We celebrate both the triumphal entry and triumphal reign of Christ on the earth. This “holy infant so tender and mild” is also the Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. He is Immanuel, God with Us.

Clothed in white
Full of faith
Head lifted high

Door flinging wide
As justice flows

With Your compassion
To proclaim joy and liberty

For Your glory
To lead hungry hearts to You
The earth is waiting
For the unveiling
Of sons and daughters
The children of God
Release the fullness of Your Spirit
On every tribe
And on every tongue

May the Lamb of GOD
Receive the full reward
Of His suffering
