http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_L1qUBbHabk

Refrain:
How great is our God
how great is His name!
How great is our God
forever the same!

1. He rolled back the waters
of the mighty Red Sea,
and He said, "I'll never leave you.
Put your trust in Me."

2. He sent his Son, Jesus,
to set us all free,
and He said, "I'll never leave you.
Put your trust in Me."

3. He gave us His Spirit,
and now we can see.
And He said, "I'll never leave you.
Put your trust in Me."

Be still for the presence of the Lord
The Holy One is here
Come bow before Him now
With reverence and fear
In Him no sin is found
We stand on holy ground
Be still for the presence of the Lord
The Holy One is here

Be still for the glory of the Lord
Is shining all around
He burns with holy fire
With splendour He is crowned
How awesome is the sight
Our radiant King of Light
Be still for the glory of the Lord
Is shining all around

Be still for the power of the Lord
Is moving in this place
He comes to cleanse and heal
To minister His grace
No work too hard for Him
In faith receive from Him
Be still for the power of the Lord
Is moving in this place

Recessional hymn 770 Shine Jesus Shine (Lord, the light of your love)

Lord the Light of Your Love is shining,
In the midst of the darkness shining,
Jesus light of the world shine upon us,
Set us free by the truth You now bring us,
Shine on me. Shine on me.

Refrain:
Shine Jesus shine
Fill this land with the Father's glory
Blaze, Spirit blaze,
Set our hearts on fire
Flow, river flow
Flood the nations with grace and mercy
Send forth Your word
Lord and let there be light.

Lord I come to Your awesome presence,
From the shadows into Your radiance,
By the blood I may enter Your brightness,
Search me, try me, consume all my darkness,
Shine on me. Shine on me. (refrain)

As we gaze on Your kindly brightness.
So our faces display Your likeness.
Ever changing from glory to glory,
Mirrored here may our lives tell Your story.
Shine on me. Shine on me. (refrain)
