Psalm 129
1 "Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth"-
let Israel now say-
2 "Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth,
yet they have not prevailed against me.
3 The plowers plowed upon my back;
they made long their furrows."
4 The Lord is righteous;
he has cut the cords of the wicked.
5 May all who hate Zion
be put to shame and turned backward!
6 Let them be like the grass on the housetops,
which withers before it grows up,
7 with which the reaper does not fill his hand
nor the binder of sheaves his arms,
8 nor do those who pass by say,
"The blessing of the Lord be upon you!
We bless you in the name of the Lord!"
Let My Life Be a Light
Let me live, blessed Lord, in the light of thy word
Let my life be a light on a hill
Leading souls now astray to the straight narrow way
Help me do some good deed while I live
Let my life be a light shining out through the night
May I help struggling ones to the fold
Spreading cheer everywhere to the sad and the lone
Let my life be a light to some soul
Give me wisdom and power, every day, every hour
Let me drink from the fountain above
And guide my footsteps aright through this dark and stormy night
Give me peace, give me joy, give me love
Chorus
Give me souls for my hire, let my life be on fire
Shining out to the world as a guide
Help me rescue someone sinking now with no hope
That in heaven we shall ever abide
Chorus
I Can't Even Walk
I thought number one would surely be me
I thought I could be what I wanted to be
I thought I could build on life's sinking sand
But now I can't even walk without you holding my hand
Oh Lord, I can't even walk without you holding my hand
The mountains too high and the valleys too wide
Down on my knees that's where I learned to stand
Oh Lord, I can't even walk without you holding my hand
I thought I could do a lot on my own
I thought I could make it all alone
I thought of myself as a mighty big man
But Lord I can't even walk without you holding my hand
Chorus
I think I'll make Jesus my all and all
And if I'm in trouble on his name I'll call
If I didn't trust him, I'd be less of a man
'Cause Lord I can't even walk without you holding my hand
Chorus
Oh Lord, I can't even walk without you holding my hand
Only a Holy God
Who else commands all the hosts of heaven
Who else could make every king bow down
Who else can whisper and darkness trembles
Only a Holy God
What other beauty demands such praises
What other splendor outshines the sun
What other majesty rules with justice
Only a Holy God
Come and behold him
The One and the Only
Cry out, sing holy
Forever a Holy God
Come and worship the Holy God
What other glory consumes like fire
What other power can raise the dead
What other name remains undefeated
Only a Holy God
Chorus
Who else could rescue me from my failing
Who else would offer his only Son
Who else invites me to call him Father
Only a Holy God
Only my Holy God
Chorus
What Kind of King is This?
Matthew 27:27-44
The World's True King: A Study in Matthew
Steve Gilbertson
"The World's True King" has been our theme throughout our study of Matthew's
gospel. But can it really have come to this? Condemned by the very people he
came to save? Executed in the most gruesome way possible? Mocked by soldiers
and bystanders alike? What kind of King is this?
Matthew 27:27-44 (ESV)
27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the governor's headquarters, and
they gathered the whole battalion before him. 28 And they stripped him and put a
scarlet robe on him, 29 and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on his head
and put a reed in his right hand. And kneeling before him, they mocked him, saying,
"Hail, King of the Jews!" 30 And they spit on him and took the reed and struck him on
the head. 31 And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the robe and put his
own clothes on him and led him away to crucify him.
32 As they went out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. They compelled this
man to carry his cross. 33 And when they came to a place called Golgotha (which means
Place of a Skull), 34 they offered him wine to drink, mixed with gall, but when he tasted
it, he would not drink it. 35 And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments
among them by casting lots. 36 Then they sat down and kept watch over him there. 37 And
over his head they put the charge against him, which read, "This is Jesus, the King of the
Jews." 38 Then two robbers were crucified with him, one on the right and one on the left.
39 And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, "You who would
destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God,
come down from the cross." 41 So also the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, mocked
him, saying, 42 "He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him
come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him. 43 He trusts in God; let God
deliver him now, if he desires him. For he said, 'I am the Son of God.'" 44 And the robbers
who were curcified with him also reviled him in the same way.
