Unstoppable Love


Try to stop Your love and You would wage a war
Try to take the very thing You gave Your life for
And You would come running
Tear down every wall
All the while You’re shouting
“My love, you’re worth it all”


God, You pursue me with power and glory
Unstoppable love that never ends
You’re unrelenting, with passion and mercy
Unstoppable love that never ends


You broke into the silence and sang Your song of hope
A melody resouning in the deep of my soul
And You have come running
You tore down every wall
All the while You’re shouting
“My love, you’re worth it all”


God, You pursue me with power and glory
Unstoppable love that never ends
You’re unrelenting, with passion and mercy
Unstoppable love that never ends


God, You pursue me with power and glory
Unstoppable love that never ends
You’re unrelenting, with passion and mercy
Unstoppable love that never ends


No sin, no shame
No past, no pain
Can separate me from Your love
No height, no depth
No fear, no debt
Can separate me from Your love


God, You pursue me with power and glory
Unstoppable love that never ends
You’re unrelenting, with passion and mercy
Unstoppable love that never ends


Try to stop Your love and You would wage a war

















Broken Vessels


All these pieces, broken and scattered
In mercy gathered, mended and whole
Empty handed but not forsaken
I've been set free, I've been set free


Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I am found
Was blind but now I see


Oh I can see You now
Oh I can see the love in Your eyes
Laying Yourself down
Raising up the broken to life


You take our failure, You take our weakness
You set Your treasure in jars of clay
So take this heart, Lord, I'll be Your vessel
The world to see, Your life in me


Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I am found
Was blind but now I see


Oh I can see You now
Oh I can see the love in Your eyes
Laying Yourself down
Raising up the broken to life


Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I am found
Was blind but now I see


Oh I can see You now
Oh I can see the love in Your eyes
Laying Yourself down
Raising up the broken to life


Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I am found
Was blind but now I see


Oh I can see You now
Oh I can see the love in Your eyes
Laying Yourself down
Raising up the broken to life
















Sweetly Broken


To the cross I look, and to the cross I cling
Of its suffering, I do drink, of its work I do sing
On it my Savior, both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love and God is just


At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love, I 'm
Sweetly broken, wholly surrendered


What a priceless gift, undeserved life
Have I been given through Christ crucified
You've called me out of death
You've called me into life
And I was under your wrath, now through the cross I'm reconciled


And at the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love, I 'm
Sweetly broken, wholly surrendered


At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love, I 'm
Sweetly broken, wholly surrendered


In awe of the cross I must confess
How wondrous Your redeeming love and
How great is Your faithfulness


At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love, I'm
Sweetly broken, wholly surrendered

Discussion Questions:



1. Who was the first person who invited you or
helped point you toward Jesus?
What did they do that made an impact on you?

to invite our friends to church or Youth Group?
What are we afraid they’ll think?

in your life that you could begin praying for?

“Come and see” this week?

someone else whether they’re “too far” from God?





















What A Friend We Have In Jesus


What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer!


Have we trials and temptations?  Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged, take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness, take it to the Lord in prayer.


Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge, take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer.
In His arms He'll take and shield thee, thou wilt find a solace there.

















Jesus We Love You


Old things have passed away
Your love has stayed the same
Your constant grace remains the cornerstone
Things that we thought were dead
Are breathing in life again
You cause your Son to shine on darkest nights


For all that You've done, we will pour out our love
This will be our anthem song


Jesus, we love You
Oh, how we love You
You are the one our, our hearts adore


The hopeless have found their hope
The orphans now have a home
All that was lost has found its place in You
You lift our weary head
You make us strong instead
You took these rags and made us beautiful


For all that You've done, we will pour out our love
This will be our anthem song


Jesus, we love You
Oh, how we love You
You are the one our, our hearts adore


Our affection, our devotion
Poured out on the feet of Jesus

Open Our Eyes Lord


Open our eyes, Lord
We want to see Jesus
To reach out and touch Him
And say that we love Him


Open our ears, Lord
And help us to listen
Open our eyes, Lord
We want to see Jesus
