Verse 1

Jesus Christ, Light of all lights,

Guide my soul through the cold and the fire.

Bread for my heart,

Fill my spirit with holy desire.

Through winter winds and valleys below,

Your gentle whisper is all I require.

Strength of my days—

Lead me wherever Your mercy inspires.

Chorus

Jesus Christ, the love of my life—

You call my soul through shadow and flame.

Light in my night,

You raise my heart and cleanse me again.

High on the winds and deep in the pines,

Your holy mercy is calling my name.

Glory, my King—

Forever and always, I sing Your name.

Verse 2

Jesus Christ, Water of life,

Wash my wounds with Your healing spring.

Keeper of truth,

See my heart and cover my shame.

Through endless nights and long mountain roads,

Your faithful love is the song that I sing.

Refuge and home—

Shelter my soul in the shade of Your wings.

Chorus

Jesus Christ, the love of my life—

You call my soul through shadow and flame.

Light in my night,

You raise my heart and cleanse me again.

High on the winds and deep in the pines,

Your holy mercy is calling my name.

Glory, my King—

Forever and always, I sing Your name.

Verse 3

Jesus Christ, Lover of souls,

Call me close with Your tenderness deep.

Wisdom of fools,

Teach me to trust when the path grows steep.

In forest dark and starlit sky,

Your ancient mercy awakens my sleep.

Glory and guide—

Forever Yours, forever I’ll keep.

Bridge

Jesus Christ, Light of all lights—

Lead me through the shadows deep.

Water of life—

Wash my soul and make me clean.

Lover of souls—

Draw me close and let me breathe.

( Light of all lights…

Water of life…

Lover of souls…

Holy One… my everything. )

Final Chorus

Jesus Christ, the love of my life—

You call my soul through shadow and flame.

Light in my night,

You raise my heart and cleanse me again.

High on the winds and deep in the pines,

Your holy mercy is calling my name.

Glory, my King—

Forever and always, I sing Your name.

[Verse 1 – Soft Earth, Open Sky]

O Lord, our Lord,

Across the earth Your glory sings;

How great is Your name,

Rising higher than the mountains.

Your quiet strength

Silences the voice of the proud;

Not through warriors’ might,

Not through scholars’ clever wisdom—

But through the simple voices

Of children lifting praise.

With a childlike heart we sing:

Great is the Lord, our Lord.

[Chorus I – Under the Stars]

How great is the Lord…

I look around me and my soul is stilled.

When I gaze into the heavens,

I see the work of Your fingers—

Beauty past imagining.

Moonlight shimmers on the waters,

Stars keep watch in silent order,

Yet Your care comes down to us—

To us, the small and fragile.

Your love beyond imagining.

Great is the Lord, our Lord.

[Verse 2 – The Crown You Gave Us]

You have crowned us with glory and honor;

Made a little lower

Than the heavenly ones above.

Over all Your creation You entrusted us—

Over the beasts of the field,

The birds of the air,

The fish that move through the deep.

Lord, over these I will be faithful.

With grateful hands I say:

Great is the Lord, our Lord.

[Chorus II – The Holy Name]

O Lord, our Lord,

Through all the earth

How great is Your name.

Your greatness stretches beyond horizon and sea.

You guard all Your children,

You cherish all who love You.

O Lord, our Lord—

Great is Your name.

[Psalm 8]

[Verse 1 – Soft Earth, Open Sky]

O Lord, our Lord,

Across the earth Your glory sings;

How great is Your name,

Rising higher than the mountains.

Your quiet strength

Silences the voice of the proud;

Not through warriors’ might,

Not through scholars’ clever wisdom—

But through the simple voices

Of children lifting praise.

With a childlike heart we sing:

Great is the Lord, our Lord.

[Chorus I – Under the Stars]

How great is the Lord…

I look around me and my soul is stilled.

When I gaze into the heavens,

I see the work of Your fingers—

Beauty past imagining.

Moonlight shimmers on the waters,

Stars keep watch in silent order,

Yet Your care comes down to us—

To us, the small and fragile.

Your love beyond imagining.

Great is the Lord, our Lord.

[Verse 2 – The Crown You Gave Us]

You have crowned us with glory and honor;

Made a little lower

Than the heavenly ones above.

Over all Your creation You entrusted us—

Over the beasts of the field,

The birds of the air,

The fish that move through the deep.

Lord, over these I will be faithful.

With grateful hands I say:

Great is the Lord, our Lord.

[Chorus II – The Holy Name]

O Lord, our Lord,

Through all the earth

How great is Your name.

Your greatness stretches beyond horizon and sea.

You guard all Your children,

You cherish all who love You.

O Lord, our Lord—

Great is Your name.

Verse 1

In the beginning…

There was nothing — life did not exist,

Only darkness.

But by His command,

Light shone throughout the world.

It shone with great brilliance

In the warmth of His Light.

His life abounds all around,

His life abounds in our souls!

CHORUS

Let us sing to the Lord our Creator;

Let us sing praise to our God.

Sing to Him each day of our life.

Let us live each day to please Him,

Let us live each day for the Lord.

Bless the Lord God, our Creator…

As our souls sing Alleluia!

Verse 2

Take a look all around…

Everywhere you see His creative hand:

From the air, to the land, to the sea —

His glory reigns all around!

Take a look deep inside yourself…

Do you not see the works of a great God?

Created in His image… His own breath…

His glory is in us all!

Bridge

So amazing are His works —

He who made heaven and earth,

He who is always faithful

He who feeds our hearts and souls.

Amazing is the Lord God!

So loving is our Creator…

He raises up the weary,

He loves all His children,

He protects all that is His.

So loving is the Lord God!

So loving is the Lord God!

Chorus

Let us sing to the Lord our Creator;

Let us sing praise to our God.

Sing to Him each day of our life.

Let us live each day to please Him,

Let us live each day for the Lord.

V1 —

Out of nothing, He formed the sky,

The sun, the moon, the stars on high.

He spoke, and all creation stirred,

Each living soul obeyed His Word.

From dust He shaped both heart and mind,

His breath gave life to all mankind.

V2 —

From His Word, all life began,

Each star and soul held in His plan.

Through Him all things came to be,

The heavens, earth, the sky, the sea.

His breath still moves, His light still shines,

The work of love through all of time.

Chorus —

He is our Maker, our sovereign Lord,

The One whose voice the stars adored.

Merciful Father, gentle and kind,

His endless love for all mankind.

The Alpha, Omega, our hope, our guide—

Forever with us, glorified.

V3 —

He knows each heart, He knows each name,

His mercy burns a steadfast flame.

He sees our sorrow, hears our cry,

And lifts us when our spirits are broken.

No shadow stands before His light—

He is our day, our life, our sight.

Bridge —

So great His love, He sent His Son,

To save the world, His will be done.

The cross became the key to grace,

That all may see the Father’s face.

(soft-prayer) Abba… Father… Lord and King…

Final Chorus —

He is our Maker, our sovereign Lord,

The One whose voice the stars adored.

His love endures beyond all time,

Our Father—holy and divine.

The heavens declare, the angels cry:

(soft-closing) Glory to God, the Lord Most High…

Outro — 

“Our Father, who art in Heaven…

Hallowed be Thy name.”

———————————————————-Verse 1

Oh my sweet Lord Jesus,

How wonderful is Your name to me.

Your name is music to my soul,

Sweeter than honey to my lips.

Oh Jesus, my sweet Jesus,

What peace and joy Your name brings to me.

My spirit leaps with life and praise for You—

Jesus, my Lord and King!

Chorus

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus—

Your holy name above all names!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus—

My heart and soul proclaim!

So sweet, so glorious, so mighty—

Your name is life and peace!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus—

Forever You reign in me.

Verse 2

Through Your name, every prayer finds its way.

No request goes unheard by the Father.

When I pray, I do so in faith,

Knowing You will hear me.

For when I speak Your glorious name,

Heaven listens—Jesus, my Savior!

Chorus

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus—

Your name brings freedom and grace!

When I cry out “Jesus,” darkness flees,

For evil cannot stand before Your name!

Through You, I have strength to overcome,

Through You, my burdens fall away—

Oh Jesus, my glorious Lord!

The Name

—————————————————-

[Verse 1]

Is it hard to trust the name of Jesus?

The Name that carried every sin of mine.

Is my heart afraid to lean upon His shoulders—

Shoulders gentle, bearing all my burdens?

Why can’t I see the heart that broke for me?

Why can’t I hear His whisper calling, “Come to Me”?

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe I’ve wandered far from mercy…

Maybe I’ve trusted the world too long…

[Chorus]

But Your name, Jesus—

Is the name that lifts me.

Your voice, Jesus—

Is the truth that frees me.

Your wounds, Jesus—

Are the shelter where I hide.

Only in Your heart

Do I rest… and find my peace.

[Verse 2]

It’s so easy to trust the names of the world—

But every one pulls me from Your light.

The world looks strong, but never bears my burdens.

The world looks kind, but never carries wounds.

Its voices shout in crowded streets…

But none of them call me closer to You.

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe I’ve wandered far from mercy…

Maybe I’ve trusted the world too long…

[Chorus]

But Your name, Jesus—

Is the name that lifts me.

Your voice, Jesus—

Is the truth that frees me.

Your wounds, Jesus—

Are the shelter where I hide.

Only in Your heart

Do I rest… and find my peace.

[Bridge]

I don’t want the world…

(I don’t need its name…)

Only Yours, Jesus—

(Only Yours remains…)

Call me again, Lord…

(Your whisper is enough…)

Lead me to Your heart,

Where mercy never ends.

[Final Chorus]

Your name, Jesus—

The name that lifts me.

Your voice, Jesus—

The truth that frees me.

Your wounds, Jesus—

My refuge and my home.

Only You, Jesus…

Verse 1 – 

From the dust You formed creation,

From the breath You gave us song.

Father of mountain and river,

To You our hearts belong.

The wind still speaks Your wisdom,

The fire burns Your name—

Lord of earth and heaven,

Forever You remain.

Chorus – 

Kyrie eleison — Lord, have mercy.

Christe eleison — Christ, have mercy.

Kyrie eleison — Lord, have mercy.

Hear our cry, from the mountains to the sky.

Verse 2 – 

Born of the virgin Mary,

Watched by the carpenter’s prayerful presence.

Light of the world among us,

Walking our dust and sand.

He healed the sick and weary,

He bore the cross of pain,

Till stone was rolled and morning came,

And life returned again.

Chorus – 

Kyrie eleison — Lord, have mercy.

Christe eleison — Christ, have mercy.

Kyrie eleison — Lord, have mercy.

Voices rise from earth and sea,

Lord of love, remember me.

Bridge – 

Under stars, creation prays,

Heaven joins our humble praise.

Hands are lifted, hearts adore,

Mercy flows forevermore.

Kyrie eleison — Lord, have mercy.

Christe eleison — Christ, have mercy.

Kyrie eleison — Lord, have mercy.

We are Yours forever.

Amen.

Prologue —

Before kings had thrones, before prophets spoke,

A promise was whispered through the ages —

That light would break the darkness,

And a Savior would come.

From Abraham to David, from exile to longing,

The world waited… for Christ.

⸻

Verse 1 —

And in the fullness of time,

A virgin bore a Son —

Conceived by the Spirit,

Promised by the One.

Born in a humble stable,

Watched by a carpenter’s care,

The Word made flesh among us,

Emmanuel was here.

⸻

Chorus —

Back in the days of old,

There were stories of a Man —

They said He calmed the wind and waves,

They said He healed the blind.

He gave the weary hope again,

And life to those who died.

He was no ordinary man —

Christ, the Light of life.

⸻

Verse 2 —

He walked from town to town,

In sandals and a robe of dust,

Preaching to the lost and broken,

Calling hearts to trust.

Crowds gathered to hear His words —

Some mocked, some believed,

Until the day the world grew dark,

And He was hung upon the tree.

⸻

Chorus —

Once, long ago, there was a Man,

Who bore the weight of all our pain.

Through every wound, through every scar,

Love was written in His name.

They crucified the sinless One,

And laid Him in the stone —

But death could not contain the Word,

The risen Christ, alone.

⸻

Verse 3 —

And on the third day morning broke,

The tomb was rolled away —

The song of angels filled the air,

“The Lord is risen today!”

The stone was moved, the veil was torn,

The world was made anew —

Salvation shone for every soul,

For Christ had seen it through.

⸻

Final Chorus —

Christ — the Savior of the world,

Christ — the promise now fulfilled,

Christ — the mercy, pure and true,

Christ — forever reigning still.

Glory to the Father,

Glory to the Son,

Glory to the Spirit —

One God, forever One.

⸻

Coda —

And the voice of time falls silent,

As the heavens softly sing:

Christ our King…

Amen.

[Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:35, John 1:14, Matthew 8:26–27, Mark 4:39–41, Luke 8:24–25, Matthew 9:27–30, John 9, Acts 5:30, 1 Peter 2:24, Luke 24:7, 1 Corinthians 15:4, Matthew 28:2, Mark 16:4, Luke 24:2, Luke 24:34, Matthew 27:51, Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14, Revelation 1:6]

———————————————————-

[Voice]

“Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful…”

[Verse 1]

A strong driving wind came from the sky above,

And it filled the house where they prayed.

Tongues of fire descended bright,

Resting upon them, hearts alight.

They spoke the Word with holy flame,

Each heart renewed, no soul the same.

They lived in the Spirit—

They followed the Spirit—

They felt the joy of a Spirit-filled soul!

⸻

[Verse 2]

I remember not so long ago,

My soul felt empty, dry, and still.

Then one day I lifted my heart to the Lord.

And felt His Spirit fill.

The fire returned, my heart was stirred,

My voice began to sing—

Now I live in His Spirit’s light,

And rejoice in everything!

⸻

[Chorus]

Energized by the Holy Spirit,

Filled by the light of the Lord;

He is the Word of the Father flowing through us—

Alive, renewed, restored!

Now we live in the Spirit,

Now we follow His call—

Rejoice! Rejoice!

In the joy of a Spirit-filled soul!

⸻

[Bridge]

“The Holy Spirit…

He is love. ..He is peace.

He is strength in weakness,

And the breath of everlasting life.”

[(wind returns briefly — music softens, gentle reverb fills the space)]

⸻

[Final Chorus]

Energized by the Holy Spirit,

Filled by the light of the Lord;

It is the Word of the Father flowing through us—

Alive forevermore!

Now we live in the Spirit,

Now we follow His call—

Rejoice, my soul, rejoice—

In the joy of a Spirit-filled soul!

[Final Chorus]

Energized by the Holy Spirit,

Filled by the light of the Lord;

It is the Word of the Father flowing through us—

Alive forevermore!

Now we live in the Spirit,

Now we follow His call—

Rejoice, my soul, rejoice—

In the joy of a Spirit-filled soul!

⸻

[Outro]

“Come, Holy Spirit… fill our hearts again.”
