Hymn-Sing Week 1: Living For Jesus, Amazing Grace, and Be Thou My Vision

NCC family-

Welcome to our first virtual hymn-sing! See videos and lyrics below to follow along at home. Even though we are a part, that doesn’t mean we can’t sing out loud and strong!! As Psalm 95:1 says, “Come let us sing for joy unto the Lord. Let us shout aloud to the Rock of our Salvation.”

As a note: This is best viewed on a computer, which should allow you to view the song videos and lyrics at the same time. And please disregard my comments at the start of “Living for Jesus”. With the assistance of Chris and Travis I became smarter in the process. 

Please send me your requests. Pray that you and yours are healthy and well.

Blessings,
Kim Ward

LYRICS
1. Living for Jesus a life that is true, striving to please him in all that I do;
Yielding allegiance, glad hearted and free, this is the pathway of blessing for me.


REFRAIN
O Jesus, Lord and Savior, I give myself to thee,
For thou, in thy atonement didst give thyself for me;
I own no other master, my heart shall be thy throne,
My life I give, henceforth to live, O Christ, for thee alone.

2. Living for Jesus who died in my place, bearing on Calvary my sin and disgrace;
Such love constrains me to answer his call, follow his leading and give him my all.


REFRAIN

LYRICS
1. 1. Amazing grace! How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found; was blind, but now I see.

2. ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed.

LYRICS
1. Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
naught be all else to me, save that thou art.
Thou my best thought by day or by night,
waking or sleeping, thy presence my light.

2. Riches I heed not nor vain, empty praise,
thou mine inheritance, now and always.
Thou and thou only, first in my heart,
Great God of heaven, my treasure thou art.
