00:01
It's good to see everybody coming back for our music night. Thank you to Lisa and Brian for all the extra efforts that went in to organize this for us.
00:10
Thank you very much. Well, let's get started with a word of prayer and then Jay will lead us in a hymn.
00:17
Father, I thank you so much for bringing us together again tonight. We thank you for the gift of music. We thank you for the joy that you give to us, that we get to express in singing and making melody in our hearts to you and joining our voices together and our talents together to show how glorious and praiseworthy you are.
00:40
We thank you that you have made us for a culture of praise and that we get to do that tonight.
00:46
We pray these things in Jesus' name. Amen. Good evening.
00:59
If you would, turn to your hymnals and your hymnals to page 213. We'll sing,
01:05
Because He Lives, and we're going to sing all three verses. He lived and died to buy my pardon.
01:46
An empty grave is there to prove my
01:51
Savior lives. Because He lives,
02:00
I give thanks because He lives.
02:34
How sweet to hold a newborn baby and feel the pride and joy
02:50
He gives. Much greater still, the calm assurance this child can face on certain days.
03:09
Because He lives, because He lives,
03:18
I can face tomorrow. Because He lives, all fear is gone, because I know
03:36
He holds a future.
03:42
And life is worth the living just because He lives.
03:53
And in one day, I'll cross the river,
04:03
I'll fight my fight no more with pain.
04:13
And then as death gives way to victory,
04:23
I'll see the lights of Morehem. I know
04:30
He lives. Would you like to stand and sing the chorus? Because He lives,
04:38
I can face tomorrow. Because He lives, all fear is gone, because I know
04:57
He holds a future.
05:02
And life is worth the living just because He lives.
05:17
You may be seated.
05:26
Or not. If you would remain standing for our scripture reading.
05:32
Yeah. 2
05:38
Samuel chapter 6 is our scripture reading for tonight. So if you have your
05:44
Bible, please turn there. 2 Samuel chapter 6. You're reading verses 1 through 23, which just happens to be the entire chapter.
05:53
So 2 Samuel chapter 6. David again gathered all the chosen men of Israel, 30 ,000.
06:04
And David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Baal Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the name of the
06:13
Lord of hosts, who sits enthroned on the cherubim. And they carried the ark of God on a new cart and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill.
06:25
And Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were driving the new cart with the ark of God.
06:32
And Ahio went before the ark. And David and all the house of Israel were making merry before the
06:39
Lord with songs and lyres and harps and tambourines and castanets and cymbals. And when they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for this oxen stumbled.
06:54
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah, and God struck him down there because of his error.
06:59
And he died there beside the ark of God. And David was angry because the
07:06
Lord had burst forth against Uzzah, and that place is called Perez Uzzah to this day.
07:14
And David was afraid of the Lord that day, and he said, How can the ark of the Lord come to me? So David was not willing to take the ark of the
07:23
Lord into the city of David. But David took it aside to the house of Obed -Edom, the
07:29
Gittite. And the ark of the Lord remained in the house of Obed -Edom, the Gittite, three months.
07:35
And the Lord blessed Obed -Edom and all his household. And it was told
07:41
King David, The Lord has blessed the household of Obed -Edom and all that belongs to him because of the ark of God.
07:48
So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed -Edom to the city of David with rejoicing.
07:55
And when those who bore the ark of the Lord had gone six steps, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened animal.
08:03
And David danced before the Lord with all his might. And David was wearing a linen ephod.
08:10
So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting and with the sound of the horn.
08:18
As the ark of the Lord came into the city of David, Michael, the daughter of Saul, looked out the window and saw
08:23
King David leaping and dancing before the Lord, and she despised him in her heart.
08:31
And they brought in the ark of the Lord and set it in its place inside the tent that David had pitched for it.
08:38
And David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the Lord. And when
08:43
David had finished offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the
08:49
Lord of hosts and distributed among all the people, the whole multitude of Israel, both men and women, a cake of bread, a portion of meat and a cake of raisins to each one.
09:02
Then all the people departed, each to his house. And David returned to bless his household.
09:10
But Michael, the daughter of Saul, came out to meet David and said, How the king of Israel has honored himself today, uncovering himself before the eyes of his servants, his servants, female servants, as one of the vulgar fellows shamelessly uncovers himself.
09:27
And David said to Michael, It was before the Lord who chose me above your father and above all his house to appoint me as prince over Israel, the people of the
09:38
Lord, and I will make Mary before the Lord. I will make myself yet more contemptible than this, and I will be abased in your eyes.
09:48
But by the female servants of whom you have spoken, by them I shall be held in honor.
09:53
And Michael, the daughter of Saul, had no child to the day of her death.
10:01
This is the word of the Lord. Would you pray with me? Lord, may we learn from this passage of Scripture tonight that there are there is a right way and a wrong way to worship you.
10:28
Lord, may we not do worship according to what seems most convenient.
10:39
But Lord, may we humble ourselves before you and worship you mightily with a whole heart because you are worthy.
10:57
Lord, as we gather tonight, as we sing and make melody in our hearts, may may our worship rise before your throne as a sweet smelling savor before you tonight.
11:21
Lord, may you be exalted not only in the words of our lips, but in the attitude of our hearts.
11:32
May you be glorified. May Christ be exalted. May your name be praised.
11:39
From the rising of the sun until its setting, from this time forth and forever, for you are worthy.
11:48
And we give you praise and honor and glory and blessing in the name of Jesus, our Savior. Amen. You may be seated.
11:56
The second song will be
12:32
I've Seen the Mighty Power of God. We sang a hymn many years ago that goes along with our
18:14
Sunday night study about the Bible, about the word of God. And this hymn's name is
18:20
Heavenly Teaching. It was written by Ann Steele. And it's set to a familiar tune called
18:26
Kingsville. You'll pick it up pretty fast. But there's three verses. It's on the back of your order of service.
18:34
So if you'll reference that if you need it. O Father of mercies, in thy word what endless glory shines.
19:00
Forever be thy name adored for these celestial eyes.
19:10
Here may the wretched sons of ones eternal riches find.
19:22
Riches above what earth can grant and lasting as the mind.
19:33
Here the fair tree of knowledge grows and yields a gracious feast.
19:45
Sublimer sweets than nature knows compel the great and least.
19:56
Here the Redeemer's welcome voice makes peace to my soul abound.
20:08
Life and everlasting joys attend the blissful sound.
20:19
O may these heavenly pages near me never do delight.
20:32
And still new beauties may I see and still increasing light.
20:43
Divine instructor, gracious Lord, be thou forever near.
20:56
Teach me to love thy sacred word and view my
21:04
Savior there. In early 2020, the
23:59
Lord led me to memorize this passage. And memorizing it is actually the easy part.
24:07
Applying and obeying it is the harder part, as you will see. The passage is
24:13
James 1, 1 through 12. James, a bondservant of God and of the
24:19
Lord Jesus Christ. To the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greetings.
24:25
My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
24:35
But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
24:42
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
24:51
But let him ask in faith with no doubting. For he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind.
25:02
So let not that man think that he will receive anything from the Lord. He is a double -minded man, unstable in all his ways.
25:12
Let the lowly brother glory in his exultation, but the rich in his humiliation.
25:19
Because as the flower of the field, he will pass away. For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass, its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes.
25:37
So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits. Blessed is the man who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the
25:52
Lord has promised to those who love him. James 1, 1 -12 We're going to take one or two hymn requests.
26:16
If there's a hymn someone would like to sing tonight as a congregation, feel free to share that with us.
26:27
Yes, sir, it is. That's on page 554,
26:42
I'll Fly Away. Sing the first one.
27:01
Some glad morning when this life is o 'er, I'll fly away
27:09
To a home on God's celestial shore, I'll fly away
27:27
When I die, hallelujah Let's go ahead and sing.
27:39
Some this life is gone, I'll fly away
27:46
Like a bird from prison's martyr's throne, I'll fly away
27:54
I'll vow away your glory, I'll fly away
28:03
When I die, hallelujah By and by, I'll fly away
28:12
Just a few more weary days and then I'll fly away
28:21
To a land where joy shall never end, I'll fly away
28:30
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
28:39
When I die, hallelujah By and by, I'll fly away
28:51
Hallelujah, thank you. Do I see a hand in Norm? Hallelujah.
29:01
Victory in Jesus, 473. If you didn't hear that, this is the song they played when
29:27
Brother Norm was baptized and proclaiming Christ as his Savior. Victory in Jesus.
29:34
I heard an old, old story
29:39
How a savior came from glory How he gave his life on Calvary To save a wretch like me
29:53
I heard about his groaning How his verses was a -tooning
30:02
Then I repented of my sin
30:07
And won the victory Oh, victory in Jesus My Savior forever
30:20
He sought me and bought me
30:25
With his redeeming blood He loved me ere
30:32
I knew him And all my love is to him
30:39
He plunged me to victory Beneath the cleansing flood
30:48
I heard about a mansion He has built for me
30:56
There are strings of gold
31:06
I'll sing How about the angels sing a story
31:17
And some sweet day I'll sing Out loud the song of victory
31:29
In Jesus My Savior forever
31:43
He loved me and bought me
31:56
He plunged me to victory Beneath the cleansing flood
32:13
You gonna help me?
32:32
See what I live with? I have a motto that I try to live by.
32:44
I have a motto that I try to live by that preachers should preach and singers should sing and never the twain should meet.
32:51
But I want to tell you right quick sometime in the late 1900s 1970, 80, long in there
33:00
Joel Hemphill and Bill Gaither wrote similar songs. They didn't do this together.
33:08
But I ran across these in our catalog not long ago and both of these men were seeing what we're seeing in spades today in our society what the situation is.
33:22
But they saw the same solution. So I put these two songs together for Paula to sing and I think you'll get the point.
33:36
I don't usually have trouble with microphones. Usually doesn't need one.
33:47
I picked up the morning paper
33:53
It was filled with tragic things I sat down to watch the news
33:59
There were more depressing scenes Seems like all this world over Only trouble can be found
34:07
Only looking up to heaven Keeps us all from looking down All around us hearts are breaking
34:17
You can hear it in the songs Someone went and left somebody
34:22
Someone did somebody wrong There's a better way of living
34:28
With a future bright ahead Just listen to the gospel
34:34
And here's what it says Here's a little good news
34:40
God is still in control Has the power still in business
34:46
Changing lives and saving souls Here's a little good news
34:52
Let it ease your troubled mind Jesus Church is getting ready
34:58
And it's almost leaving time I just feel like something good
35:09
Is about to happen I just feel like something good
35:15
Is on the way He's promised that he'll all
35:21
What? I thought he was in another key When God's people humble themselves
35:32
And call on Jesus And they look to heaven above For their
35:39
I feel like something good Is about to happen
35:46
And brother it could be That very day Yes I've noticed all the bad news
35:55
In the paper And it seems like things get bleaker
36:00
Every day But for this child of God It makes no difference
36:09
For me it's going to get better Either way Well I have never been so thrilled
36:17
About tomorrow Sunshine's always breaking Through my skies of gray
36:25
And I just feel like something good Is about to happen
36:31
And brother this could be That very day
36:36
Well isn't that good news God is still in control
36:42
Has the power still in business Changing lives and saving souls
36:48
Isn't that good news Let it ease your troubled mind
36:54
Jesus' church is getting ready And it's almost leaving time
36:59
Jesus' church is getting ready And it's almost leaving time
37:17
This next song is Something that I think people
37:24
Are beginning to fear a little bit It's about death It was written by a man who was about to die
37:30
He didn't have any fear But what I'm seeing in our life now
37:35
Is that people are thinking more about that But most people don't know what to think about it
37:42
When I was a little girl You weren't supposed to talk about death Nobody answered your questions
37:48
So one day I asked my mother After our grandmother's funeral I said what is it like to die mama
37:54
Mama knew everything She said it was just like Stepping from one room into another
38:02
So I spent the next few days Stepping from the living room to the kitchen
38:09
From the kitchen into the living room Into the bedroom you know
38:14
So I would know what it was like to die But since then
38:21
Death's never had any fear in my heart Can't be there Jake Hess wrote this song
38:29
Before when he knew he was dying Cause death ain't no big deal
38:42
Someday when I take my final breath And the dark looks down at me
38:51
And says you're dead The truth is gonna finally be revealed
39:02
Oh I know I'm gonna find that death ain't no big deal
39:09
Well he'll reach down and gently close my eyes
39:16
And I'll be watching from the other side
39:23
I'll be laughing about how scared I thought
39:28
I'd feel Oh I'm gonna find that death ain't no big deal
39:38
My soul is gonna be just like a bird set free
39:44
I'll sail right past the moon up to the stars
39:52
And I know I'll be amazed when I get to heaven's gate
39:58
Cause I knew my way home by heart
40:05
A light will shine much brighter than the sun
40:12
And I'll be right back where I started from Ain't no way to say how good
40:24
I'll feel Oh I tell you children death ain't no big deal
40:33
Well my soul is gonna be just like a bird set free
40:41
I'll sail right past the moon up to the stars
40:47
And I know I'll be amazed when I get to heaven's gate
40:55
Cause I knew my way home by heart
41:02
A light will shine much brighter than the sun
41:09
And I'll be right back where I started from Ain't no way to say how good
41:21
I'll feel Oh I tell you children death ain't no big deal
41:30
And at my maker's feet I'm gonna yield
41:37
Oh I thank you Lord death ain't no big deal
42:39
Arching as to war

43:10
Forward into battle see his banner go

Hell's foundations quiver at the shout of praise

With the cross of Jesus going on before Like a mighty army moves a church of God Christian we are treading where the saints have trod

Holy Spirit And lo, I am with you always even to the end of the age
51:04
Amen All right, thank you guys, good job Stand up for Jesus, ye soldiers of the cross

Lord indeed Stand up, stand up for Jesus, the trumpet call obey
52:33

The arm of flesh will fill you, ye dare not trust your own
53:19
Put on the gospel armor, each piece put on with prayer

Amen. Chorus! Eyes upon Jesus, look full in his wonderful face
57:43
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim In the light of his glory and grace
58:00
Turn your eyes to the hillside where justice and mercy embraced
58:12
There the son of God gave his life for us
58:19
And our measureless debt was erased
58:25
Jesus, to you we lift our eyes
58:32
Jesus, our glory and our prize
58:37
We adore you, behold you, our Savior ever true
58:44
O Jesus, we turn our eyes to you
58:54
Our eyes to the morning and see
59:07
Christ the Lion awake What a glorious dawn, fear of death is gone
59:19
For we carry his life in our veins

59:41

01:00:58
O Jesus, we turn our eyes to you
01:01:04
O Jesus, we turn our eyes to you
01:01:43
Psalm 34 says, Glorify the Lord with me, let us exalt his name together. Often we have to purposely, intentionally set our mind on things above, not on things of the earth.
01:01:56
We've all gone through trials and sorrows in different ways, in different kinds this past year.
01:02:03
One of the ways that we've been setting our mind on things above is, specifically, is through this song.
01:02:10
It has just been radiating and it's helped us. So I pray that these words will just bring you comfort and peace and hope.
01:02:23
Should nothing of our efforts stand, no legacy survive.
01:02:34
Unless the Lord does raise the house in vain, its builders strive.
01:02:44
To you who boasts tomorrow's gain, tell me what is your life?
01:02:54
A mist that vanishes with the dawn, all glory be to Christ.
01:03:02
All glory be to Christ our King, all glory be to Christ.
01:03:11
His rule and reign will ever sing, all glory be to Christ.
01:03:20
His will be done, his kingdom come, on earth as is above.
01:03:29
Who is himself our daily bread, praise him the
01:03:35
Lord of love. Let living water satisfy the thirsty without price.
01:03:46
We'll take a cup of kindness yet, all glory be to Christ.
01:03:55
All glory be to Christ our King, all glory be to Christ.
01:04:03
His rule and reign will ever sing, all glory be to Christ.
01:04:12
When on the day the great I Am, the faithful and the true, was for sinners slain, is making all things new.
01:04:28
Behold our God shall live with us, and be our steadfast life.
01:04:38
Shall let his people be, all glory be to Christ.
01:04:45
All glory be to Christ our King, all glory be to Christ.
01:04:53
His rule will ever sing, all glory be to Christ.
01:05:01
All glory be to Christ our King, all glory be to Christ.
01:05:10
His rule will ever sing, all glory be to Christ.
01:05:29
Stand and let's sing the doxology together as we dismiss. Praise God from the scenes below.
01:05:45
Praise Him all who's near below.
01:05:53
Praise Him, all. Praise God.
