10.11 8:30 Grounding Worship

October 11, 2020    8:30am

Our journey through ancient spirituality continues as we find ourselves on the road searching for God amidst the chaos and confusion. By being rooted in creation, we find God always present with us. Paul says in the letter to the Colossians, “You stay grounded and steady in that bond of trust, constantly tuned in to be the Message, careful not to be distracted or diverted.”

The Song Nearer My God to Thee

Words: Sarah Adams Music: Lowell Mason

1. Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

2. Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be over me, my rest a stone; yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

4. Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise, out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise; so by my woes to be nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!
