All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way.
- Isaiah 53:6

This week we looked at the work of the Holy Spirit in regeneration, the act of God’s grace where he makes us alive in the whole man.

Invitacion Fountain – The Violet Burning. This song is an invitation for those in need of Jesus to come.

Let all who are weak, all who are weary
Come to the Rock, come to the Fountain
All who have sailed on the rivers of heartache
Come to the sea, come and be set free!
If You lead me Lord, I will follow
Where You lead me Lord, I will Go

Come, Ye Sinners – Indelible Grace. This song reminds us that Jesus called us when we were sinners and not based on anything we could offer.

Come ye needy, come, and welcome,
God’s free bounty glorify;
True belief and true repentance,
Every grace that brings you nigh.
Without money, without money
Come to Jesus Christ and buy.

Heavenly Father, Beautiful Son – Sovereign Grace Music. Reflects the Trinitarian work of salvation in a sinner’s heart.

Heavenly Father, beautiful Son
Spirit of light and truth
Thank You for bringing sinners to come to You

Marvelous Grace of Our Loving Lord

Grace, grace, God’s grace
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within
Grace, grace, God’s grace
Grace that is greater than all our sin

How Deep the Father’s Love For Us – Stuart Townend. This powerful hymn beautifully portrays how God has saved us through Jesus Christ.

I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

Let Us Love and Sing and Wonder – Indelible Grace. This hymn, sung after our Prayer of Confession, reminds us of the promise that God’s grace is sufficient.  If we have been forgiven by God, then we do not need any other defense.

Let us wonder grace and justice
Join and point to mercy’s store
When through grace in Christ our trust is
Justice smiles and asks no more
He Who washed us with His blood
Has secured our way to God

God Who Saves – Caedmon’s Call. God calls us to new life and just as Jesus was raised from the dead, when we are regenerated in the whole man, we are raised in Him.

For He lives that we too might live
And He loves that we might also love
And know the glory of God above

Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) – John Newton and Chris Tomlin. One of the most well-known and loved hymns of all time, Amazing Grace reverberates with the joy of being found by Christ.

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