You my God have saved my soul
I am Yours forevermore
I won't be moved of this I'm sure
You are my God and You saved my soul
I was lost when you came for me
Held in chains by the enemy
But You broke them in victory
Now I'm free, I am free
You're my joy and You are my hope
I am saved by Your grace alone
I will sing of Your love for me
I am free, I am free
Now I stand with the King of kings
He has paid for my every sin
And from now through eternity
I am free, I am free
What once was dead is now alive
You gave to me the breath of life
You brought me up out from the grave
I'm bursting out with songs of praise

This world is not my home I’m here but for a moment
It’s all I’ve ever known but this world is not my home
The fight is not my own these burdens aren’t my future
The empty tomb has shown I am bound for glory
I am free because I’m bound
I am bound for heaven’s gate
Where my feet will stand on holy ground
I am bound for glory
The saving work is done and death is not my ending
My God has overcome I am bound for glory
All my pain, hurt and shame, gone when Jesus calls my name
Endless joy, endless praise, all when Jesus calls my name
Revelation 19:1–5
After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying out,
“Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, for his judgments are true and just; for he has judged the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her immorality, and has avenged on her the blood of his servants.
Once more they cried out,
“Hallelujah! The smoke from her goes up forever and ever.”
And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who was seated on the throne, saying, “Amen. Hallelujah!” And from the throne came a voice saying,
“Praise our God, all you his servants,
you who fear him, small and great.”
Hallelujah, Salvation and Glory

Hallelujah, salvation and glory
Honor and power unto the Lord, our God
For the Lord, our God, is mighty
Yes, the Lord, our God is omnipotent
The Lord, our God, he is wonderful
All praises be to the King of Kings
For the Lord, our God, is wonderful
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Halle–lu–jah, He is wonderful
Revelation 19:6–9
Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,
“Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns.
Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory,
for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready;
it was granted her to clothe herself with fine linen, bright and pure”— for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.
And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.”

Our Father, in heaven, you are holy and worship you. Give us grace to recognize you as king, and courage to be part of your kingdom. May we find our home with you in heaven when the time comes to participate in the feast you have prepared for those who love you. We look forward to that day waiting in Jesus’ name. Amen.

One day You’ll make everything new, Jesus
One day You will bind every wound
The former things shall all pass away
No more tears
One day You’ll make sense of it all, Jesus
One day every question resolved
Every anxious thought left behind
No more fear
When we all get to heaven
What a day of rejoicing that will be
When we all see Jesus
We'll sing and shout the victory
One day we will see face to face, Jesus
Is there a greater vision of grace
And in a moment, we shall be changed
On that day
And one day we’ll be free, free indeed, Jesus
One day all this struggle will cease
And we will see Your glory revealed
On that day
And when we all get to heaven
What a day of rejoicing that will be
When we all see Jesus
We'll sing and shout the victory
Yes, one day we will see face to face, Jesus
Is there a greater vision of grace?
And in a moment, we shall be changed
Yes, in a moment, we shall be changed
In a moment, we shall be changed
On that day
When we all get to heaven
What a day of rejoicing that will be
When we all see Jesus
We’ll sing and shout the victory
We’ll sing and shout the victory

The Mystery of the Faith
And so, in remembrance of these your mighty acts in Jesus Christ, we offer ourselves in praise and thanksgiving as a holy and living sacrifice, in union with Christ's offering for us, as we proclaim the mystery of faith.

Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain
Holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him Who sits on
Heaven's mercy seat
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing, praise to the King of kings
You are my ev’rything and I will adore You
Clothed in rainbows of living color
Flashes of lightning rolls of thunder
Blessing and honor strength and glory
And power be to You the only wise King
Filled with wonder awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your name
Jesus Your name is power breath and living water
Such a marv’lous mystery yeah
Benediction
God invites us into his future. We are called and chosen, embraced by the God in whom tears, mourning, crying, pain, and even death will be no more. Remember God’s future, for this is our story.
Our Lord says, “See, I am coming soon!” And we respond, “Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus!” Amen.
