DO YOU NOT KNOW?#
Isaiah 40:27–31 (NIV)

The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
Why do you say, O Jacob, and complain, O Israel,
“My way is hidden from the Lord”?
Why do you say, O Jacob, and complain, O Israel,
“My cause is disregarded by my God”?
Do you not know? Have you not heard… Even youths grow tired and weary,
young men stumble and fall; (repeat)
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not, not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

Chorus
Commit your way to
the Lord; trust in Him, and He will act…
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him…

He knows the plans
He has for you, says the Lord,
plans for good to
give to you a future and a hope.
WE WAIT IN HOPE FOR THE LORD#

The wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy, and good fruit, unwavering, without hypocrisy.
I WANT TO KNOW#
CHRISTPhilippians 3:7–14; Isaiah 53:2,3 (NIV)
But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss
for the sake of Christ. What is more– I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things.
I consider them rubbish
that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own
that comes from the law,
but that which is through faith in Christ– the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith…
the righteousness that is by faith.
I want to know Christ. I want to know Jesus, and the power of His resurrection,
I want to know Christ… Jesus, and the fellowship
of sharing in His sufferings,
I want to know Christ… Jesus, becoming like Him in His death, and so, somehow to attain

Psalms 94:17–19; 117 (NIV)
A WAY OUT#
I Corinthians 10:12,13 (NIV)
So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man.
And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear.
But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.
… so that you can stand up under it.
OUT OF THE#
DEPTHSPsalm 130 (NIV)
Out of the depths I cry to You, O Lord; O Lord, hear my voice.
Let Your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.
If You, O Lord, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand?
But with You there is forgiveness; therefore You are feared.
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in His word I put my hope.
My soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning.
O Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for with the Lord is unfailing love and with Him is full redemption. (2x)

I love You, O Lord, I love You, O Lord, I love You, Lord.

For accompaniment, see #65; for Spanish, see #57 For accompaniment, see #70; for Spanish, see #62
slow to anger and rich in love.
The LORD is good to all;
to the resurrection from the dead.
He had no beauty or majesty
Unless the Lord had given me help,
If You, O Lord, kept a record of sins...
Blessed are the poor in spirit,
IN THE LORD#
ALONE…Isaiah 45:22–25 (NIV)
“Turn to Me and be saved, all you ends of the earth;
for I am God, and there is no other.
By Myself I have sworn,
My mouth has uttered in all integrity a word that will not be revoked:
Before Me every knee will bow; by Me every tongue will swear.
They will say of Me, ‘In the Lord alone are righteousness and strength.’”
All who have raged against Him will come to Him and be put to shame.
But in the Lord
all the descendants of Israel
will be found righteous and will exalt.
“They will say of Me, ‘In the Lord alone are righteousness and strength.’”
In the Lord alone
are righteousness and strength, righteousness and strength.
HUMBLE#
YOURSELVES1 Peter 5:6–11 (RSV)
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, that in due time He may exalt you.
Cast all your anxieties on Him, for He cares about you.
Be sober, be watchful.
Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion,
seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experience of suffering
is required of your brotherhood throughout the world.
And after you have suffered a little while,
the God of all grace, who has called you
to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore, establish, and strengthen you.
To Him be the dominion for ever and ever.
Amen.#
DO NOT THROW#
AWAY YOURCONFIDENCE
Hebrews 10:35–39 (NIV)
Do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.
You need to persevere
so that when you’ve done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised.
For in just a very little while, “He who is coming will come and will not delay.
But my righteous one will live by faith.
And if he shrinks back,
I will not be pleased with him.”
But we are not of those who shrink back, we are not of those who are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved, who believe and are saved… (repeat)
So do not throw away your confidence…
THERE IS NO FEAR#
IN LOVE1 John 4:18a; 2 Timothy 1:7 (NIV)
There is no fear in love.
But perfect love drives out fear…
for God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, a spirit of love,
and of self-discipline,
a spirit of power, a spirit of love, and of self-discipline.
I WILL PRAISE#
YOU, O LORDPsalm 138:1–3 (NIV)
I will praise You, O Lord, with all my heart, before the “gods”
I will sing Your praise. I will bow down toward Your holy temple
and will praise Your Name.
I will praise You, O Lord, with all my heart…
for Your love and Your faithfulness, for You have exalted above all things Your Name and Your Word.
I will praise You, O Lord, with all my heart…
When I called, You answered me; You made me bold and stouthearted… I will praise You, with all my heart…
He has compassion on all He has made.
Chorus
The LORD is faithful to all His promises and loving toward all He has made. The LORD upholds all those who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.
Chorus
HIS GRACE IS#
SUFFICIENT2 Corinthians 12:9,10 (NIV)
Chorus:
His grace is sufficient for me, His grace is sufficient for me, for His power is made perfect in weakness,
His grace is sufficient for me.
Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses,
so that Christ’s power may rest on me, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
Chorus
That is why, for Christ’s sake,
I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions,
in difficulties.
For when I’m weak, then I’m strong.
Chorus
WE DO NOT LOSE#
HEART2 Corinthians 4:16–18; 5:1 (NIV)
Therefore we do not lose heart.
Though outwardly we’re wasting away, yet inwardly we’re being
renewed day by day.
For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, what is unseen.
For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed,
we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven.
to attract us to Him, nothing in His appearance that we should desire Him.
He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows,
and familiar with suffering.
Like one from whom men hide their faces, He was despised,
and we esteemed Him not. He was familiar with suffering.
Do I want to know Christ? Do I want to know Jesus?
And the fellowship
of sharing in His sufferings?... Do I want to know Christ?… Jesus, becoming like Him in His death?…
I want to know Christ.
I want to… resurrection from the dead.
Not that I have already obtained all this,
or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that
for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.
Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it.
But one thing I do:
Forgetting what is behind
and straining toward what is ahead,
I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God
has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
To win the prize for which God
has called me heavenward in Jesus Christ!
LET US FIX OUR#
EYESON JESUS
Hebrews 12:1–3 (NIV)
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses,
let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance
the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus,
the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at
the right hand of the throne of God.
Consider Him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary,
weary and lose heart… So you will not lose heart.
given me help,
I would soon have dwelt in silence of death.
When I said “My foot is slipping,”
it’s slipping,
Your love, O Lord, supported me. When anxiety was great within me,
Your consolation brought joy to my soul.
…to my soul, to my soul.
Praise the Lord, all you nations; extol Him, all you peoples.
For great is His love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
LET THE MORNING#
Psalm 143:1,8–10 (NIV)
Let the morning bring me word of Your unfailing love,
for I have put my trust in You. Show me the way I should go, for to You I lift up my soul.
Rescue me from my enemies, O Lord, for I hide myself in You.
Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God;
May Your good Spirit
lead me on level ground. (repeat)
O Lord, hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy; for mercy, for mercy,
in Your faithfulness and Your righteousness, come to my relief.
WHOM HAVE I?#
from Psalm 73:25, 26 (NIV –1978 version)
Whom have I in heaven but You?
And being with You,
I desire nothing on earth.
I desire nothing.
My flesh and heart may fail, but God is my strength and my portion forever, and my portion forever.
For accompaniment, see #71; for Spanish, see #63
...wait for the morning.
Out of the depths I cry to You, O Lord; O Lord, hear my voice.
Let Your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.
SET ME FREE#
Psalm 142:3a,5–7a (NIV)
When my spirit grows faint within me, it is You who know my way. (repeat)
I cry to You, O Lord;
I say, “You are my refuge,
my portion in the land of the living.” Listen to my cry,
for I am in desperate need; rescue me from those who pursue me,
I am in desperate need, for they are too strong for me.
Set me free, set me free, set me free… that I may praise Your Name.
Set me free, set me free, set me free from my prison
that I may praise Your Name. (repeat)
Set me free, set me free, set me free… that I may praise Your Name,
that I may praise Your Name.
LET THEM PRAISE#
THE NAMEPsalm 148:1,13 (NIV)

The Lord is my rock,

I call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,
and I am saved from my enemies.

Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God,
sons of God,
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
I AM THE WAY#
John 14:6; Isaiah 35:8a,9,10 (NIV)
I am the way… the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through me. (repeat)
And a highway will be there;
it will be called the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not journey on it;
it will be for those who walk in that Way; …
No lion will be there, nor will any ferocious beast
get up on it;
they will not be found there.
But only the redeemed will walk there, and the ransomed of the Lord
will return.
They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away. (repeat)
will flee away…
I am the way… the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through Me. (repeat)
except through Me…

HE IS THE IMAGE#
Colossians 1:15–20 (NIV)
He… He is the image of the invisible God,
the firstborn over all creation. the firstborn over all…
For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible,
whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities;
all things were created by Him… all things were created for Him.
He is before all things,
and in Him all things hold together. And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning
and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything
He might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him
to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth
or things in heaven,
by making peace through His blood shed on the cross.
He… He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
the firstborn over all…
DO NOT WORRY#
Luke 12:22–31 (NIV);
Philippians 4:6a (TLB)
Chorus: Do not worry about your life. Do not worry about what you’ll eat. Do not worry about what you’ll wear.
Do not worry about anything!
Life is more than food, the body more than clothes.
Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap,
they have no storeroom or barn;
Without faith it is impossible to please God.
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for
and certain of what we do not see. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.
HAVE I NOT#
COMMANDED YOU?Joshua 1:9 (NIV)
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.

YOU WERE RUNNING#
A GOOD RACE!
Galatians 5:1, 7 (NIV)
You were running a good race. Who cut in on you and kept you from obeying, obeying the truth? (repeat)
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.
Stand firm, then,
and do not let yourselves be burdened again
by a yoke of slavery.
TO HIM#
Revelation 1:5b, 6 (NIV)
To Him who loves us and has freed us
from our sins by His blood, and has made us to be
It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green.
It has no worries... in a year of drought
and never fails… (3x)
to bear fruit.
For accompaniment, see #64; for Spanish, see #56
SPEAK AND ACT#
James 2:12, 13 (NIV)
Speak and act as those who are going to be judged
by the law that gives freedom, because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone
who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment! Mercy triumphs over judgment!
BLACK SHEEP#
The nursery rhyme, Matthew 18:12– 14, John 10:11a, 15b, & from Isaiah 1:18 (NIV)
- Baa, baa, black
Yes, sir, yes, sir, three bags full, one for my master, one for my maid,
one for the little boy who lives down the lane.
Baa, baa, black… three bags full.*
If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look,
go to look
for the one that wandered off?
And if he finds it, I tell you the truth,
he is happier... about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine
that did not wander off.
In the same way
your Father in heaven... is not willing that any of these little ones
should be lost.
We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed;
perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
We always carry around in our body the death, the death of Jesus,
so that the life of Jesus
may also be revealed in our body, jars of clay.
- Let light shine out
and treasure be found in jars of clay.*
MAY THE GOD#
Romans 15:5, 6 (NIV)
May the God who gives endurance,
May the God who gives encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus,
so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord, of our Lord Jesus Christ.
THE HOUR HAS#
COMERomans 13:11b, 12 (NIV)
The hour has come, the hour has come, for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now,
is nearer now than when we first believed.
The night is nearly over; the day is almost here.
So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.
WHO AMONG THE#
GODS?Exodus 15:11, 18 (NIV)
Who among the gods is like You, O Lord?
Who is like You, who is like You —
(repeat)
majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders? The Lord will reign for ever and ever.
I ASK THAT WE#
LOVE2 John 5b, 6 (NIV)
I ask that we love one another… (4x)
And this is love, this is love: that we walk in obedience to His commands.
This is love, and this is love…
As you have heard from the beginning, His command is that you walk in love. (repeat)
THE FRUIT OF THE#
SPIRITGalatians 5:22, 23 (NIV)
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Against such things — there is no law.
DO NOT LET YOUR#
HEARTSBE TROUBLED
John 14:1– 4 (NIV)
Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in Me. (repeat)
In My Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you.
I am going there
to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come back
and take you to be with Me that you also may be where I am.
You know the way
to the place where I am going, you know, you know the way. (repeat)
WE WAIT IN HOPE#

¿ACASO NO HAZ#
OIDO?Isaías 40:27-31
For English, see #1, DO YOU NOT KNOW?
¿Acaso no haz oído que el Señor es eterno Dios?
Del confín del mundo El es Creador;
no se cansa ni fatiga. Su sabiduría es infinita.
El da fuerza al cansado
y al débil aumenta su vigor.
¿Por qué dices, oh Jacob, y te quejas Israel: “Dios no se ocupa de mi”?
¿Por qué dices, oh Jacob, y te quejas Israel: “Dios no sabe de mi situación”?
Aún los jóvenes se cansan
y el más fuerte llega a caer. (2x)
Mas el que espera en el Señor tendrá nuevas fuerzas;
volará como, como águila, correrá y no, no se cansará, caminará sin desmayar. Aleluya...

¿Quién conoce la mente de Dios? O, ¿quién le ha dado consejo?
¿Quién le ha dado primero a Dios que así Dios le deba a él?
Pues todas las cosas proceden de El, todo existe por El y para El,
todas las cosas proceden de El.

Romans 11:33–36 (NIV)
Oh, the depth of the
riches of the wisdom and
knowledge of God!
Oh, the depth of the
riches of the wisdom and
knowledge of God!
How unsearchable His
judgments, and His paths beyond tracing out!
“Who has known the
mind of the Lord? Or who has been His
counselor?”
“Who has ever given to God, that God should repay
him?”
For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things,
from Him and through Him and to Him are all things,
from Him and through Him and to Him are all things.
How unsearchable His
judgments, and His paths beyond tracing out!
“Who has known the

him?”

to Him be the glory forever.

DO NOT WORRY ABOUT YOUR LIFE#
yet God feeds them.
How much more valuable you are than birds! (2x)
Chorus
Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?
How much more valuable you are than birds! (2x)
Chorus
Consider how the lilies grow. They do not labor or spin.
Yet I tell you not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.
If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow thrown into the fire, how much more will He clothe you,
...of little faith!
How much more will He clothe you!
Chorus
And do not set your heart on what you’ll eat or drink;
do not worry about it.
For the pagan world runs after
all such things, and your Father knows that you need them.
But seek His kingdom
and these things will be given to you as well. (seek His kingdom
and these things will be yours.)
Chorus
WITHOUT FAITH IT#
IS IMPOSSIBLEHebrews 11:1,6; Galatians 5:6b
And without faith it is impossible to please God,
because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those
who earnestly seek Him.

to serve His God and Father—
to Him be glory, to Him be power forever and ever. Amen. (repeat)

Music by Joanne Geeze
Hear, O Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
Guard my life,
for I am devoted to You.
You are my God; save Your servant who trusts in You.
Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I call to You all the day long.
Bring joy to Your servant, for to You, O Lord,
I lift up my soul.
Teach me Your way, O Lord, and I will walk in Your truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear Your name.
I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart;
I will glorify Your name forever and ever and ever.
For great is Your love toward me; You have delivered my soul from the depths of the grave.
BLESSED IS THE#
MANJeremiah 17:7, 8 (NIV)
Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in Him, whose confidence is in Him.
He will be like... a tree planted by the water... that sends out its roots, sends out its roots by the stream.
I am the Good Shepherd,
I lay down My life
I am the Good Shepherd,
I lay down My life
for the sheep, for the sheep.
- Baa, baa, black
…Yes, sir, yes —
and my wool is* white as snow.
YOU TURNED MY#
WAILINGPsalm 30:11, 12; Phil. 4:4 (NIV)
You turned my wailing into dancing, You removed my sackcloth,
and clothed me with joy, clothed me with joy,
that my heart may sing to You and not be silent. O Lord my God,
I will give You thanks forever. Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
THANKS BE TO GOD#
2 Corinthians 2:14; 4:6 – 10 (NIV)
Thanks be to God, who always leads us
in triumphal procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere
the fragrance of the knowledge of Him.
For God, who said,
“Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light
of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
But we have this treasure in jars of clay
to show that this all surpassing power is from God and not from us,
is from God and not from us.
HOW GREAT IS THE#
LOVEI John 3:1, 2 (NIV)
How great is the love, how great is the love
the Father has lavished, lavished on us, that we should be called
children of God!
And that is what we are!
The reason the world does not know us is that —
it did not know Him.
Dear friends, now we are children, children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known.
But we know, we know that when He appears, we shall be like Him,
for we shall see Him as He is, we shall see Him as He is.
IT IS GOOD#
Psalm 92:1, 2, 4, 5 (NIV)
Music by Joanne Geeze
It is good to praise the Lord and make music
to Your name, Most High,
to proclaim Your love in the morning and Your faithfulness at night, and Your faithfulness at night.
For You make me glad by Your deeds, O Lord;
I sing for joy
at the works of Your hands. How great are Your works, Your works, O Lord,
how profound, profound Your thoughts, how profound,
profound Your thoughts!
I HAVE FOUGHT#
THE GOODFIGHT
II Timothy 4:7, 8 (NIV)
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race,
I have kept,
I have kept the faith. (repeat)
Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness,
which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—
and not only to me,
but also to all... who have longed for His appearing.
FINALLY,#
BROTHERS…2 Corinthians 13:11, 14 (NIV)
Finally, brothers, good-bye.
Aim for perfection, be of one mind, live in peace.
And the God of love and peace will be with you.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God,
and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all, be with you.

Do you send the lightning bolts on their way, Do they report to you, “Here we are”?
