From Psalm 32:7: “You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with glad cries of deliverance.”
With faces toward the rising sun
Lord, share your mercy and forgiveness
Coming to the Cross, with repentance
Humbly laying our transgressions there
On our knees, breaking bread together
In remembrance, Jesus truly cares
Coming to the Cross, seeking its hope
With reverence, looking to our Lord
On our knees, drinking wine together
Singing with praise to His perfect chord
Coming to the Cross, stained with red blood
Accepting Christ as Lord and Savior
On our knees, praising God together
Walking with transforming behavior
With faces toward the rising sun
Lord, share your mercy and forgiveness

Overwhelming with darkness
Tomorrow’s vision unseen
Out of life’s impossible
Wondering what faith will mean
Calvary’s light beams ahead
Today offers blessed place
Possible waiting in view
Powering toward Christ’s grace
Prince of Peace offers his hand
Hour of hope at last arrives
Redemption shall be fulfilled
Seeing faith coming alive
Bitter sorrow fades away
In Christ, mercy filled with love
Answers to prayer’s journey
Touching Spirit high above
From John 10:9-10: “I am the gate. Whoever enters by Me will be saved and will come in and go out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”
