Today... 'God Alone
Silently my soul waits for God alone
Who reigns upon the heavenly throne.
For He's the True and Living One
and Jesus Christ is His Only Son.
My Rock and my Salvation is He,
my Refuge, my Defence and my Glory.
I shall not be moved with Him at my side
For I trust in Him alone to provide.

Today... 'The friend of those who do His will
To do the will of God is best
and with His friendship to be blest.
His love all other love transcends
He laid down His life for His friends.
Now no longer slaves will we be
but members of His family.
Then in us Christ confides instead
tells us all that the Father's said

We are the body and He is the Head.

United as one by His sacrifice

the Living Head of the Church is He
In everything having the supremacy.

Today... 'Word of Life
I heard the Word of Life speak to me
He opened my eyes so I could see.
New life sprang up in me that day
When I heard the Words He had to say.
'This is how much I love you, ' He cried
as He stretched out His arms so wide.
For He had died so that I might live
The Word of Life cried 'Father forgive'

Today... 'Fortress
Upon Calvary's Hill a Fortress stood
founded upon a Rock so sure and good.
He is my deliverer and my shield
and before Him the gates of hell shall yield.
My eternal Stronghold and Refuge sure
keeping me safe from harm and so secure.
He is my Rock and my Deliverer
The Lord Almighty and my Redeemer.

Today... 'The Firstborn Among Many Brothers
Christ is the Firstborn of the new creation
and also the Author of our salvation.
We know that in all things God works for the good
of those that are called according to His word.
Now all predestined to be conformed are we
and in the likeness of God's Son shall we be.
Called in Christ Jesus we have all been justified
and by God's grace we will all be glorified.

Mighty God by Heaven and Earth adored.
Enthroned in Glory and bright light is He
exalted on high for all men to see.

Today... 'The Earnest of our inheritance
The payment has been made
and the price has been paid.
My salvation is sealed
by the Gospel revealed.
For the Truth has been heard
and I believed The Word.

By God's great compassion

The Spirit of promise
has now guaranteed this.
