9. Hymn: At the Cross

Hymn: At the Cross

Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748)

(Vocal)

(Music)

(Sheet Music)

1. Alas! and did my Savior bleed,
    And did my Sovereign die?
    Would He devote that sacred head
    For such a worm as I?

Refrain:

At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light,

And the burden of my heart rolled away-

It was there by faith I received my sight,

And now I am happy all the day!

2. Was it for crimes that I have done
    He groaned upon the tree?
    Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
    And love beyond degree!

3. But drops of grief can ne‵er repay
    The debt of love I owe:
    Here, Lord, I give myself away -
    ‵Tis all that I can do!

God of love and kindness
Your presence in me
You cover me with peace
In your loving embrace
I want none but You

Light of truth and love
Shining in me
You cover me with peace
In your loving embrace
Your love is all that I see

At the place where You call
I worship You Lord
Wherever I am
I give You my praise
At the place where You call
I worship You Lord
Wherever I am
Oh Lord, I worship You

Everywhere I go I praise you
Everything I do I lift up
My life to you I worship you

5. Modern Worship Song: Gentle Voice

Modern Worship Song: Gentle Voice

Author: Susan Naus Dengler

(Vocal)

(Music)

Far above the noise of life,
There’s a voice that is gently calling.
“Leave behind your cares and strife.
Come to Me, I will give you rest.
Bring your fear, and bring your pain.
Bring your anger, and bring your worry.”
Do you hear the voice of Jesus
gently calling, “Come unto Me.”

Gentle voice, so meek and mild,
Gentle words of understanding.
“You are my beloved child.
Come to Me, I will give you rest.
Bring your grief, and bring your cares.
Bring you heartaches, and bring your sorrow.”
Do you hear the voice of Jesus
Gently calling, “Come unto Me”?

Gentle voice so full of love,
Gentle words so rich in mercy.
“You are my beloved child.
Come to Me. I will give you rest.”

4. Marriage Devotional: Respecting A Respectful Husband

Marriage Devotional: Respecting A Respectful Husband

Author: Barbara Rainey

Nevertheless let each individual among you also love his own wife 

even as himself; and let the wife see to it that she respect her husband (Ephesians 5:33).

    Unfortunately, some men hear only Paul's words about women being submissive and take this as license to be domineering. It's impossible for a wife to submit to a man who doesn't respect her needs as a woman.

    Every husband needs a wife who respects him. That means she notices him, regards him, honors him, prefers him and esteems him. From a negative point of view, not respecting your husband means to be insulting, critical, nonsupportive or passive towards him and his needs.

    One way to respect your husband is to consider and understand the weight of his responsibilities as a servant/leader in the home. It is easy to look at your husband and see what is wrong instead of right. As someone once said, "Faults are like the headlights of your car, those of others seem more glaring."

Your husband needs unconditional acceptance—faults and all. As a Kenny Roger’s song puts it:

    She believes in me.

    I don't know just what she sees in me,

    But she believes in me.

    One way to communicate respect to your husband is to accept his schedule. For example, in past years I had to learn to be content with a schedule that found us packing up and leaving for most of the summer for Dennis's teaching assignments, conferences and meetings. We also had to learn how to live a great deal of time out of a suitcase and even out of the car.

    When it gets to be too much, I tell Dennis and we make adjustments. Yes, my husband's schedule is important to me. I choose to be a part of what he does, to watch and help, and to be available to him. And I know by choosing to support Dennis in these ways, I am actually showing him respect.

Discuss:

Ask your husband when he has felt most respected by you. Ask him why.

Pray:

As a wife, ask God to grant you a better understanding of your husband's needs 

so that you will be able to know how to express your respect of him.

2. Hymn: In the Garden

Hymn: In the Garden

Author: C. Austin Miles (1868-1946)

(Vocal)

(Music)

(Sheet Music)

1. I come to the garden alone,
    While the dew is still on the roses;
    And the voice I hear, falling on my ear,
    The Son of God discloses.

Refrain:

And He walks with me, and He talks with me,

And He tells me I am His own,

And the joy we share as we tarry there,

None other has ever known.

2. He speaks, and the sound of His voice
    Is so sweet the birds hush their singing;
    And the melody that He gave to me
    Within my heart is ringing.

3. I‵d stay in the garden with Him
    Tho‵ the night around me be falling;
    But He bids me go; thro‵ the voice of woe,
    His voice to me is calling.
