Welcome to Epiphany Sunday!
ALL are welcome at LoveMarq and we truly mean ALL.
And we do not mean that we will welcome you and then as soon as you enter we will begin telling you all the things you need to change about yourself and how to make you look and act like us.
Nope.
We will get to know YOU and see who God created YOU to be and even help YOU to see the wonder and incredible, unique ways that you are meant to impact the world around you. Gifts you've been given by your maker to do things and to be you that only you can. And we celebrate that and look for ways to let you express and DO those things. :) We truly think God loves the creation God made and that includes YOU!!
Today we'll be singing a couple of songs, having a discussion where there will probably be dozens of different ideas and opinions shared and expressed and partake in the Lord's Supper together. We'd love to see you there. Or you can just peek in online and still participate that way.
God loves you and so do we!
Here are the songs for today:
January 5, 2025
We Three Kings
We three kings of Orient are; bearing gifts we traverse afar,
field and fountain, moor and mountain,
following yonder star.
[Refrain]: O star of wonder, star of light,
star with royal beauty bright,
westward leading, still proceeding,
guide us to thy perfect light.
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain, gold I bring to crown him again,
King forever, ceasing never,
over us all to reign.
Frankincense to offer have I; incense owns a Deity nigh;
prayer and praising, voices raising,
worshiping God on high.
Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume breathes a life of gathering gloom;
sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
sealed in the stone-cold tomb.
Glorious now behold him arise; King and God and sacrifice:
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Earth to Heaven replies.
HALLELUJAH
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
It goes like this, The fourth, the fifth, The minor fall,
the major lifts, The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
She tied you to a kitchen chair, She broke your throne,
she cut your hair, from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
There was a time you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
I remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
I did my best, it wasn’t much, I couldn’t feel so I tried to touch,
I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come here to fool ya
And even though it all went wrong
I’ll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Step by Step
Oh God, You are my God, And I will ever praise You
Oh God, You are my God, And, I will ever praise You
I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days
Hold me Jesus cause I’m shakin’ like a leaf
You have been King of my glory, won’t you be my Prince of Peace
