Above are a few pictures taken by Chris Phillips from the last 'Come & Sing' service at St Mary's.
Below are the links to Simon's videos from last Sunday:
1 Glory be to Jesus,
who, in bitter pains
poured for me the lifeblood
from his sacred veins!
2 Grace and life eternal
in that blood I stand;
blest be his compassion,
infinitely kind.
3 Blest thro' endless ages
be the precious stream
which from endless torments
did the world redeem.
4 Abel's blood for vengeance
pleaded to the skies;
but the blood of Jesus
for our pardon cries.
5 Oft as it is sprinkled
on our guilty hearts,
Satan in confusion
terror-struck departs.
6 Oft as earth exulting
wafts its praise on high,
angel hosts rejoicing
make their glad reply.
7 Lift we, then, our voices,
swell the mighty flood,
louder still and louder
praise the precious blood!
My song is love unknown,
My Saviour’s love to me;
Love to the loveless shown,
That they might lovely be.
O who am I,
That for my sake
My Lord should take
Frail flesh, and die?
He came from His blest throne
Salvation to bestow;
But men made strange, and none
The longed-for Christ would know:
But oh, my Friend,
My Friend indeed,
Who at my need
His life did spend.
Sometimes they strew His way,
And His sweet praises sing;
Resounding all the day
Hosannas to their King:
Then “Crucify!”
Is all their breath,
And for His death
They thirst and cry.
They rise and needs will have
My dear Lord made away;
A murderer they save,
The Prince of life they slay.
Yet cheerful He
To suffering goes,
That He His foes
From thence might free.
Here might I stay and sing,
No story so divine;
Never was love, dear King,
Never was grief like Thine.
This is my Friend,
In whose sweet praise
I all my days
Could gladly spend.
