Weekly Worship at Blawenburg

A thousand friends upon a screen

A hundred faces we've never seen

We share our pictures, share our days

But friendship means much more than praise

 

When life gets hard and skies turn gray

Who will help us find our way?

Not just a name, not just a call

But someone there to catch our fall

 

Two are better than one

When the road is long, when the day is done

When one falls down, the other stands

And lifts them up with helping hands

 

Through joy and sorrow, rain or sun

We walk together, not alone

With God beside us, we are strong

Two are better than one

 

A friend will stand beside your door

And help you build a little more

Will share your laughter, share your tears

And walk beside you through the years

 

When burdens grow too much to bear

A faithful friend is always there

Not just in words, but what we do

A heart that says, "I'm here for you"

 

Two are better than one

When the road is long, when the day is done

When one falls down, the other stands

And lifts them up with helping hands

 

Through joy and sorrow, rain or sun

We walk together, not alone

With God beside us, we are strong

Two are better than one

 

A cord of three is hard to break

Through every storm, through every ache

With you and me and God above

We're held together by His love

 

Two are better than one

When the road is long, when the day is done

When one falls down, the other stands

And lifts them up with helping hands

 

Through joy and sorrow, rain or sun

We walk together, not alone

With God beside us, we are strong

Two are better than one

 

Be the friend you'd want to find

With open arms and a loving mind

Together, Lord, we carry on

Two are better than one

Before the bread, before the cup
Before I lift my eyes
You have already filled this room
With mercy for my life

In every blessing on this table
In every breath I take
Your grace is moving through me, Lord
In every choice I make

Give me Your help, dear God
Give me the heart to see
Even the smallest things I do
Can be an offering

All to Your glory
All in Your name
Whether I eat or drink
Let my whole life proclaim

All to Your glory
In all that I do
Give me Your grace, O Lord
To live my life for You

At home, at work, in quiet rooms
In laughter and in tears
In every ordinary hour
Lord, let me know You're near

When I have no words to pray
When strength has slipped away
Sometimes all I whisper is
"Help me, Lord, today"

Give me Your help, dear God
Give me the heart to see
Your grace is working even now
And working here in me

All to Your glory
All in Your name
Whether I eat or drink
Let my whole life proclaim

All to Your glory
In all that I do
Give me Your grace, O Lord
To live my life for You

You give the grace
I give You thanks
You give me strength
For every day

Your love comes down
My praise goes up
And in Your grace
I have enough

All to Your glory
All in Your name
Whether I eat or drink
Let my whole life proclaim

All to Your glory
Through all of my days
Let every ordinary thing
Become an act of praise

Give me Your grace, O Lord
Let Your love shine through
[Your awesome grace]
May all I am bring glory to You

Grace and peace
From God our Father
And Jesus Christ our Lord

Give me Your grace, O Lord
Give me Your grace

"Love God, Love Your Neighbor"

Softly You whisper Above every fear, Calling our hearts To draw ever near

Teacher, what matters? What stands above all?
When every voice is shouting, Who will hear Your call?

Love the Lord with all your heart, Every breath, every part.
With your soul and all your mind, Leave no corner far behind.

Yet when the storms surround me, I wonder where You've been.
Still Your faithful mercy Keeps calling me again.

You never asked for empty words, Or promises that fade.
You called us into living love, A choice we're called to make.

Love God with all your heart. Love your neighbor as yourself.
Every kindness, every mercy, Is a glimpse of heaven's help.

When I cannot see tomorrow, When forgiveness feels too hard,
Teach my hands to carry grace, Teach my feet to where You are.

Love like You love. Love like You love.

My neighbor wears a thousand faces, Different stories, different names.
Different cities, different nations, Still Your love remains the same.

It's easy to speak of peace, Harder still to make it grow.
Pride builds walls between our hearts, Love tears every stone below.

Lay down all my selfish plans, The need to understand.
You are God and I am Yours, Lead me by Your gentle hand.

Love God with all your heart. Love your neighbor as yourself.
Every kindness, every mercy, Is a glimpse of heaven's help.

Where there once was fear and anger, Let compassion light the dark.
Build Your kingdom through Your people, One surrendered, faithful heart.

Love like You love. Love like You love.

Breathe on me, Breath of God. Fill this weary soul anew.
Teach me mercy. Teach me grace. Let my life point back to You.

If we've forgotten We belong together, Remind us once again.
Your peace grows stronger Every time Love begins.

Love God with all your heart. Love your neighbor as yourself.
Every act of faithful service Writes Your story on the earth.

When the world is torn by hatred, Be the light that shines above.
All the law hangs on this calling— Live a life of holy love.

Love like You love. Love like You love.

Breathe on me, Breath of God. Fill me with life anew.

That I may love, The way You love, And do what You would do.

Amen.

NUDGE ME TO OBEY (Prayer Corner 42) – Veliko “Lee” Bekir

I bow my head, But words feel slow
I call on Jesus, The one I know
But there's a whisper, I can't ignore
A quiet voice at my spirit's door
It speaks in peace, It calls me near
For doubt and hesitation I still fear

NUDGE ME TO OBEY, Don't let me turn away
When fear begins to rise
Teach me what to say
Guide me every day, Holy Spirit lead my way
NUDGE ME TO OBEY

I feel the call, But I delayed
Made my excuses, I was afraid
Of restless nights, And a gentle flame
I kept calling softly in Your name
You gave me strength, You made it clear
And in surrender You drew me near

NUDGE ME TO OBEY, Don't let me turn away
When fear begins to rise,
Teach me what to say, Guide me every day
Holy Spirit lead my way
NUDGE ME TO OBEY

Give me courage when I'm weak
Give me words when I can't speak
Let Your love flow through my hands
Help me trust Your perfect plans
I will believe, I will receive
I will proceed, I will proceed

NUDGE ME TO OBEY, I've chosen You today
No more running far away (no way)
Fill me with Your grace, Let me see Your face
In every step I take (I take)
NUDGE ME TO OBEY
I trust You as I walk this road
You lift my heart You bear the load, In every prayer in all I do
Holy Spirit I'll follow You…..
