Song: “In the Shadow of the Glorious Cross” – CCLI #5133895
In the shadow of the glorious cross, compelled by grace to cast my lot
I’ll discard the loss and bare your name, forsaking all for your own fame.
Your hymn of grace sung over me, abounding forth in glorious streams. My
thirst is quenched by you my Lord, sustained am I, redeemed, restored;
Sustained am I, redeemed, restored
CHORUS: Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
When death’s dark shadow’s at my feet, when I am plagued by unbelief You
place my hands into your side, by precious blood identified
By precious blood identified
These crowns I’ve clenched with fisted hands, I cast them down before the
throne
Of Christ my God, the worthy lamb, Christ crucified, the Great I AM
Christ crucified, the Great I AM, Christ crucified, the Great I AM

Song: “Hark the Voice of Love and Mercy” – CCLI #2793362
Hark, the voice of love and mercy, sounds aloud from Calvary!
See it rends the rocks asunder; shakes the earth and veils the sky!
“It is finished, it is finished,” hear the dying Savior cry.
“It is finished, it is finished,” hear the dying Savior cry.
“It is finished,” o what pleasure do these charming words afford.
Heavenly blessings without measure flow to us from Christ the Lord.
“It is finished, it is finished,” saints the dying words record.
“It is finished, it is finished,” saints the dying words record.
Finished all the types and shadows of the ceremonial law.
Finished all that God had promised, death and hell no more shall awe.
“It is finished, it is finished,” saints from hence your comfort draw.
“It is finished, it is finished,” saints from hence your comfort draw.
Tune your harps anew, ye seraphs, join to sing the pleasing theme
Saints of earth and all in heaven join to praise Immanuel’s name.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Glory to the bleeding lamb!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Glory to the bleeding lamb!
