Verse 1
We’re not alone, for Christ is here
Immanuel our God come near
We’re not alone, for to our world
Jesus has come, eternal Word
And as he speaks, our souls laid bare
Naked, ashamed, sin is made clear
And yet he clothes us in his love
Never alone
Christ is with us, is with us

Verse 2
The longest walk, earth’s darkest day
The pressing crowd, his mounting pain
A heavy load of grief and shame
Breathless that we should breathe again
“Father, forgive them,” comes his cry
Silence from God blackens the sky
A creeping dread in every heart
Lost in the world
Now God departs, God departs

Verse 3
The dawn will come, the sun will rise
Out of the grave we’ll see hope’s light
Tomb opened wide, stone rolled away
Morning has come, a brand new day
“He isn’t here,” the angel said
“He is alive, no longer dead.”
Our hearts are lifted, souls raised high
Christ is with us
Christ is our life, he’s our life

Verse 4
Never alone is now our cry
In joy, in grief, in lonely sin
Never alone for Christ is ours
He lives in us, we live in him
And ’til we reach that final day
When fears are gone, cast far away
We’ll live secure, trust in his love
Never alone
Christ is with us, he’s with us

Verse 1
Blessed is the man
The man who does not walk
In the counsel of the ungodly
Blessed is that man
He who rejects the way
Rejects the way of sin
And who turns away from scoffing
Blessed is that man
But his delight by day and night
Is the law of God Almighty

Verse 2
He is like a tree
A tree that flourishes
Being planted by the water
Blessed is that man
He will bring forth fruit
His leaf will wither not
For in all he does he prospers
Blessed is that man
For his delight by day and night
Is the law of God Almighty

Verse 3
The ungodly are not so
For they are like the chaff
Which the wind blows clean away
The ungodly are not so
The ungodly will not stand
Upon the judgment day
Nor belong to God’s own people
The ungodly will not stand
But God knows the way of righteous men
And ungodly ways will perish

Tag
Blessed is the man
The man who does not walk
In the counsel of the ungodly
Blessed is that man

Verse 1
May the mind of Christ my saviour
Live in me from day to day
By his love and power controlling
All I do and say
All I do and say

Verse 2
May the word of God dwell richly
In my heart from hour to hour
So that all may see I triumph
Only through his power
Only through his power

Verse 3
May the peace of God my father
Rule my life in everything
That I may be calm to comfort
Sick and sorrowing
Sick and sorrowing

Verse 4
May the love of Jesus fill me
As the waters fill the sea
Him exalting self abasing
This is victory
This is victory

Verse 5
May I run the race before me
Strong and brave to face the foe
Looking only unto Jesus
As I onward go
As I onward go

Verse 6
May his beauty rest upon me
As I seek the lost to win
And may they forget the channel
Seeing only him
Seeing only him
