First Hymn
Great is thy Faithfulness - TOJ
Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father,
There is no shadow of turning with Thee; Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.
Chorus:
“Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!”
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!
Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
Chorus:
“Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!”
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided —
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth, Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide; Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
Chorus :
“Great is Thy faithfulness!”
“Great is Thy faithfulness!” Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed Thy hand hath provided “Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!
Bible Reading: Psalm 138:1-8 NKJV by
Ms. Ore-ofe Songonuga
1 I give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; before the gods I sing your praise;
2 I bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word.[a]
3 On the day I called, you answered me; my strength of soul you increased.[b]
4 All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O Lord, for they have heard the words of your mouth,
5 and they shall sing of the ways of the Lord, for great is the glory of the Lord.
6 For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly, but the haughty he knows from afar.
7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and your right hand delivers me.
8 The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.

Goodness of God- TOJ
I love You, Lord
Oh Your mercy never fails me
All my days
I've been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
Oh I will sing of the goodness of God
I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In darkest nights
You are close like no other I've known You as a Father I've known You as a friend I have lived in the goodness of God
All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able Oh I will sing of the goodness of God
Your goodness is running, it's running after me
Your goodness is running, it's running after me
With my life laid down, I'm surrendered now, I give You everything
Your goodness is running, it's running after me
All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh I will sing of the goodness of God
I'm gonna sing, I'm gonna sing
All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh I will sing of the goodness of God
Your goodness is running, it's running after me
Your goodness is running, it's running after me
With my life laid down, I'm surrendered now, I give You everything
Your goodness is running, it's running after me
All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good With every breath that I am able
Oh I will sing of the goodness of God I'm gonna sing, I'm gonna sing

Closing Hymn
To God be the glory - TOJ
To God be the glory! great things he has done; so loved he the world that he gave us his Son who yielded his life an atonement for sin, and opened the life-gate that all may go in.
Refrain:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord! Let the earth hear his voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son and give him the glory; great things he has done
2. O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood!
To every believer the promise of God: the vilest offender who truly believes, that moment from Jesus a pardon receives.
Refrain:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
Let the earth hear his voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord!
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son and give him the glory; great things he has done.
3. Great things he has taught us, great things he has done, and great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son: but purer and higher and greater will be our joy and our wonder, when Jesus we see!
Refrain:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord! Let the earth hear his voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord! Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son and give him the glory; great things he has done.
