“Again I Say Rejoice” Israel Houghton
Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say, again I say Rejoice
Come bless the Lord. Come bless the Lord.
Draw near to worship Christ the Lord.
And bless His name, His holy name. Declaring He is good!
O, that men would praise Him. O, that men would praise Him —
Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say, again I say Rejoice
O, that men would praise His name,
Would praise His name to the ends of the earth

Scripture Reading Colossians 2:5-7 5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and
beholding your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.
6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been
taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

“We Bow Down” Elisha J. Mitchell
We bind up all resistance and we loose true surrender
We renounce all defiance and embrace true repentance
We bow down. We bow down
Righteous Judge, Holy Savior bending knees in submission
We declare You Lord and Master, obeying You forever
We bow down. We bow down
With hosts of angels round You and the four and twenty elders
We cast golden crowns before You singing countless Hallelujahs
We bow down. We bow down
