"You Are Faithful"

A long long time ago today,
A man was betrayed and rejected by the ones He loved.
That man was beaten, flogged, mocked and spat upon.

He was given a crown of thorns.
He was nailed to the Cross.
He suffered and died for You and Me.
That man is Jesus - our Saviour.

Let's remember this most important event in history.
Following is a wonderful song sung in service this evening that so aptly speaks of God's faithfulness...

You Are Faithful (Nan & Dennis Allen)

"The harder I fall, the greater Your mercy.
The farther I run, the longer Your reach.
The darker my way, the brighter Your face shines on me.

The deeper my pain, the greater Your healing.
The stronger my will, the sweeter Your love.
The smaller my prayer, the harder You listen to me.

The longer I stay, the better I know You.
The more that I know, the clearer I see.
Lord You are all, You're all that I ever need.

For your arm is long, Your love is deep.
Your watchful eye never sleeps.
When all others reject me, You never leave me alone.

A Father can never deny His own. You are faithful.
You are faithful.
For You are faithful.
