Unexpected

Unexpected – Rev. Benjamin Wines

I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart;
I will tell of all Your wonderful deeds.
I will be glad and exult in You;
I will sing praise to Your Name, O Most High.
The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed,
A stronghold in times of trouble.
And those who know Your name put their trust in You,
For you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.
For the needy shall not always be forgotten,
Nor the hope of the poor perish forever.
Rise up, O Lord! Do not let mortals prevail;
Let the nations be judged before You.
Put them in fear, O Lord;
Let the nations know that they are only human. – from Psalm 9

On Eyes

On Eyes – Rev. Ben Wines

It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
To sing praises to Your name, O Most High;
To declare Your steadfast love in the morning,
And Your faithfulness by night,
To the music of the lute and the harp,
To the melody of the lyre.
For You, O Lord, have made me glad by Your work;
At the works of Your hands I sing for joy.
The righteous flourish like the palm tree,
And grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
They are planted in the House of the Lord;
They flourish in the courts of our God.
In old age they still produce fruit;
They are always green and full of sap,
Showing that the Lord is upright;
He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him. – From Psalm 92

The LORD said, “Rise and anoint him; for this is the one.” – 1 Samuel 16:12

Looking Up

“Looking Up” – Rev. Benjamin Wines

The Lord is King, He is robed in majesty;
The Lord is robed, He is girded with strength.
He has established the world;
It shall never be moved;
Your throne is established from of old;
You are from everlasting.
The floods have lifted up,
O Lord, the floods have lifted up their voice;
The floods lift up their roaring.
More majestic than the thunders of mighty waters,
More majestic than the waves of the sea,
Majestic on high is the Lord!
Your decrees are very sure;
Holiness befits your house, O Lord, forevermore.

Chosen

Chosen – Rev. Benjamin J. Wines

O sing to the Lord a new song, for He has done marvelous things.
His right hand and His holy arm have gotten Him victory.
Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth;
Break forth into joyous song and sing praises.
Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,
With the lyre and the sound of melody.
With trumpets and the sound of the horn
Make a joyful noise before the Lord.
Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
The world and those who live in it.
Let the floods clap their hands;
Let the hills sing together for joy
At the presence of the Lord, for He is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.

First

From You comes my praise in the great congregation;
My vows I will pay before those who fear Him.
The poor shall eat and be satisfied; those who seek Him shall praise the Lord.
May your hearts live forever!
All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord;
And all the families of the nations shall worship before Him.
For dominion belongs to the Lord,
And He rules over the nations.
To Him, indeed, shall all who sleep in the earth bow down;
Before Him shall bow all who go down to the dust, and I shall live for Him.
Posterity will serve Him;
Future generations will be told about the Lord,
And proclaim His deliverance to a people yet unborn,
Saying that He has done it.

Can You Hear Me Now?

“Can You Hear Me Now?’ – Dr. Bill Pyle

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. – from Psalm 23
