And when the dawn has filled the skies Behold our Savior Christ arise He rescues us from sin and night And brings us joy and life and light Hallelujah, hallelujah If Jesus lives, we shall not fear We know His love and presence near Though all the world be dead to us Enough we have if Christ we trust Hallelujah, hallelujah He holds us still, as His dear sheep And in His hand our souls will keep For of His own, He loses none His work is through, atonement done Hallelujah, hallelujah No more to fear or grief we bow For Christ is King and Ruler now We wait in hope to see that day When He appears and we will say Hallelujah to our Lord Who saves and is adored Hallelujah
2.
Who is a God like you; Who pardons sin and forgives his children? You delight in our repentance And you love to show your mercy. You will again have compassion on us, You will tread our sins underfoot; And throw all of our, our iniquities Into the depths of the sea.

Sing to the Lord, the Lord our God And in his strength rejoice When his salvation is our theme Exalted be our voice With thanks approach his awesome sight And songs of honor sing He is a King of boundless might The whole creation’s King Come with humble souls adore Come and kneel before his face Oh may the people of his power Be children of his grace
4.
Lord, in my brokenness I stand, And lift my heart to Thee; Thy pardoning grace, O God, command, Be merciful to me. I beat upon my anxious chest, O’erwhelmed with agony; O save my soul by sin oppressed, Be merciful to me. My guilt, my shame, I all confess, I have no hope nor plea But Jesus’ blood and righteousness; Be merciful to me. Here at Thy cross I still would wait, Nor from its shelter flee, But Thou, O God, in mercy great, Art merciful to me. My guilt, my shame, I all confess, I have no hope nor plea But Jesus’ blood and righteousness; Be merciful to me.

Though the angry surges roll On my tempest driven soul, 
I am peaceful, for I know, Wildly though the winds may blow, 
I’ve an anchor safe and sure, That can evermore endure. And it holds, my Anchor holds
 Through the wind and stormy blast And it holds, my Anchor holds Christ, my Savior, holds me fast Troubles almost ’whelm the soul; Griefs like billows o’er me roll
 Tempters seek to lure astray; Storms obscure the light of day But in Christ I can be bold, He’s the anchor that will hold Mighty tides about me sweep, Perils lurk within the deep
 Angry clouds o’ershade the sky, And the tempest rises high But I’ve an anchor safe and sure, That can evermore endure.

Psalm 71 02:57
My Savior, my almighty Friend, When I begin Thy praise Where will the growing numbers end The numbers of Thy grace? Thou art my everlasting trust Thy goodness I adore How will my lips rejoice to tell The victories of my King! My soul redeemed from sin and hell Shall Thy salvation sing When I am filled with sore distress From some oppressing sin I’ll plead Thy perfect righteousness And mention none but Thine Thou art my everlasting trust Thy goodness I adore How will my lips rejoice to tell The victories of my King! My soul redeemed from sin and hell Shall Thy salvation sing

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross, The emblem of suff’ring and shame; And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best For a world of lost sinners was slain. So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, With its light cast upon this dark way. I will cling to the old rugged cross, As it leads me to glory one day. Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world, Has a wondrous attraction for me; For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above To bear it to dark Calvary. In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine, A wondrous beauty I see, For ’twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died, To pardon and sanctify me. To the old rugged cross I will ever be true; Its shame and reproach gladly bear; Then He’ll call me someday to my home far away, Where His glory forever I’ll share.

My burden in Thy sorrow, Lord, Thou hast borne for me, 
For it was my transgression which brought this woe on Thee. 
I cast me down before Thee, wrath were my rightful lot; 
Have mercy, I implore Thee; Redeemer, pass me not! My Shepherd, now receive me; my Guardian, own me Thine. 
Great blessings Thou didst give me, O source of gifts divine. 
Thy lips have often fed me with words of truth and love; 
Thy Spirit oft hath led me to heavenly joys above. Break, oh break, this heart of stone With Thy pardoning voice Jesus, Savior, Thy grace alone Make this soul rejoice The joy can never be spoken, above all joys beside,
 When in Thy body broken I thus with safety hide. 
O Lord of Life, desiring Thy glory now to see, 
Beside Thy cross expiring, I’d breathe my soul to Thee. My Savior, be Thou near me when death is at my door; 
Then let Thy presence cheer me, forsake me nevermore!
 When soul and body languish, oh, leave me not alone,
 But take away mine anguish by virtue of Thine own! Christ, my Lord, carry me through death Quell these present fears With Thy mighty hand, O God Wipe away these tears

He was wounded for our transgressions, 
He was crushed for our enmity and sin With His pain, He brought us peace, 
From our sorrow gave release, 
And with His stripes, And with His stripes, 
And with His stripes we have been healed.
 He was silent before the slaughter, 
We did assume Him abandoned by His God; 
As a Lamb, He came to die And the law to satisfy, And all our guilt, And all our shame, 
And all our sin was laid on Him.
 Turned away, we all had turned away
 In distain for our Shepherd and our God
 Still He sought us, His mercy shown, Giving Christ, His very own
 Who carried us
 Who carried us
 Who carried us in love to God.
 
Though His grave was among the wicked 
He found approval before the sight of God 
After death, He then was raised 
Let His name be ever praised 
Our risen Lord, Our glorious Lord, Our reigning Lord and coming 
Our risen Lord, 
Our glorious Lord, 
Our reigning Lord and coming Our risen Lord, Our glorious Lord, 
Our reigning Lord and coming King
10.
O quickly come, dread Judge of all for awful though Thine advent be 
All shadows from the truth will fall And falsehood die, in sight of Thee O quickly come, great King of all Reign all around us, and within Let sin no more our souls enthrall Let pain and sorrow die with sin. O quickly come, true Life of all for death is mighty all around 
On every home his shadows fall on every heart his mark is found. O quickly come, sure Light of all for gloomy night broods o’er our way And weakly souls begin to fall with weary watching for the day O quickly come, for round Thy throne no eye is blind, no night is known O quickly come, for grief and pain can never cloud Thy glorious reign.
11.
O Christ, our Hope, our heart’s Desire,
 Redemption’s only Spring! Creator of the world art Thou, 
Its Savior and its King. How vast the mercy and the love 
Which laid our sins on Thee, And led Thee to a cruel death, To set Thy people free. But now the bands of death are burst
 The ransom has been paid, 
And Thou art on Thy Father’s throne, 
In glorious robes arrayed. O Christ, be Thou our lasting Joy, Our ever great Reward! Our only glory may be it be 
To glory in the Lord. All praise to Thee, ascended Lord;
 All glory ever be
 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
 Through all eternity.
