This week’s hymns:

It Took a Miracle

1. My Father is omnipotent, And that you can’t deny;
   A God of might and miracles – ’Tis written in the sky.

REFRAIN
It took a miracle to put the stars in place,
It took a miracle to hang the world in space;
But when He saved my soul, Cleansed and made me whole,
It took a miracle of love and Grace.

2. Tho’ here His glory has been shown, We still can’t fully see
   The wonders of His might, His throne, ’Twill take eternity.

REFRAIN

3. The Bible tells us of His pow’r And wisdom all way thro’:
   And every little bird and flow’r Are testimonies, too.

REFRAIN

Here, O my Lord, I see Thee

1. Here, O my Lord, I see Thee face to face;
   Here would I touch and handle things unseen,
   Here grasp with firmer hand th’eternal grace,
   And all my weariness upon Thee lean.
2. Here would I feed upon the bread of God;
   Here drink with Thee the royal wine of heav’n;
   Here would I lay aside each earthly load,
   Here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiv’n.
3. I have no help but Thine; nor do I need
   Another arm save Thine to lean upon;
   It is enough, my Lord, enough indeed;
   My strength is in Thy might, Thy might alone.
4. Mine is the sin, but Thine the righteousness;
   Mine is the guilt, but Thine the cleansing blood.
   Here is my robe, my refuge, and my peace,
   Ty blood, Thy righteousness, O Lord, my God.
