Newsboys - He reigns



Its the song of the redeemed 
Rising from the African plain 
Its the song of the forgiven 
Drowning out the Amazon rain 
The song of Asian believers 
Filled with Gods holy fire 
Its every tribe, every tongue, every nation 
A love song born of a grateful choir 

Its all Gods children singing 
Glory, glory, hallelujah 
He reigns, He reigns 
Its all Gods children singing 
Glory, glory, hallelujah 
He reigns, He reigns 

Let it rise above the four winds 
Caught up in the heavenly sound 
Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals 
To the faithful gathered underground 
Of all the songs sung from the dawn of creation 
Some were meant to persist 
Of all the bells rung from a thousand steeples 
None rings truer than this 

Its all Gods children singing 
Glory, glory, hallelujah 
He reigns, He reigns 
Its all Gods children singing 
Glory, glory, hallelujah 
He reigns, He reigns 
Its all Gods children singing 
Glory, glory, hallelujah 
He reigns, He reigns 
Its all Gods children singing 
Glory, glory, hallelujah 
He reigns, He reigns 

And all the powers of darkness 
Tremble at what theyve just heard 
Cause all the powers of darkness 
Cant drown out a single word 

When all Gods children sing out 
Glory, glory, hallelujah 
He reigns, He reigns 
All Gods children singing 
Glory, glory, hallelujah 
He reigns, He reigns

Be Thankful

Titus 3

Saved in Order to Do Good

1 Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good, 2 to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and always to be gentle toward everyone.
3 At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone.

9 But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless. 10 Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them. 11 You may be sure that such people are warped and sinful; they are self-condemned.

Final Remarks

12 As soon as I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicopolis, because I have decided to winter there. 13 Do everything you can to help Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way and see that they have everything they need. 14 Our people must learn to devote themselves to doing what is good, in order to provide for urgent needs and not live unproductive lives.
15 Everyone with me sends you greetings. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.

What a Mighty God We Serve

Jesus Give You a Big Hug

Psalm 118 (with text - press on more info.)



Psalm 118 (New International Version)

Psalm 118

1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

2 Let Israel say: "His love endures forever."

3 Let the house of Aaron say: "His love endures forever."

4 Let those who fear the LORD say: "His love endures forever."

5 In my anguish I cried to the LORD, and he answered by setting me free.

6 The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

7 The LORD is with me; he is my helper. I will look in triumph on my enemies.

8 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.

9 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes.

10 All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the LORD I cut them off.

11 They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the LORD I cut them off.

12 They swarmed around me like bees, but they died out as quickly as burning thorns; in the name of the LORD I cut them off.

13 I was pushed back and about to fall, but the LORD helped me.

14 The LORD is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.

15 Shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous: "The LORD's right hand has done mighty things!

16 The LORD's right hand is lifted high; the LORD's right hand has done mighty things!"

17 I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the LORD has done.

18 The LORD has chastened me severely, but he has not given me over to death.

19 Open for me the gates of righteousness; I will enter and give thanks to the LORD.

20 This is the gate of the LORD through which the righteous may enter.

21 I will give you thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation.

22 The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone;

23 the LORD has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.

24 This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

25 O LORD, save us; O LORD, grant us success.

26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD. From the house of the LORD we bless you. [a]

27 The LORD is God, and he has made his light shine upon us. With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession up [b] to the horns of the altar.

28 You are my God, and I will give you thanks; you are my God, and I will exalt you.

29 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.
