3rd Sunday of Lent

Response:
O that today you would listen to His voice,
Harden not your hearts.

As the Deer

Verse 1
As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after you
You alone are my heart's desire
And I long to worship you
Refrain
You alone are my strength, my shield
To You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my heart's desire
And I long to worship you
Verse 2
You're my friend and You are my brother
Even though You are a King
I love You more than any other
So much more than anything
Verse 3
I want You more than gold or silver
Only You can satisfy
You alone are the real joy-giver
And the apple of my eye

Fill My Cup, Lord

Verse 1
Like the woman at the well
I was seeking
For things that could not satisfy
And then I heard my Saviour speaking
“Draw from My well that never shall run dry.”
Refrain
Fill my cup, Lord, I lift it up, Lord
Come and quench this thirsting of my soul
Bread of Heaven, feed me till I want no more
Fill my cup, fill it up and make me whole
Verse 2
There are millions in this world
Who are seeking
The pleasure earthly goods afford
But none can match the wondrous treasure
That I find in Jesus Christ, my Lord
Verse 3
So my brother if the things
This world gave you
Leave hungers that won’t pass away
My blessed Lord will come and save you
If you kneel to Him and humbly pray

Loving and Forgiving

Refrain
Loving and forgiving are You, O Lord
Slow to anger, rich in kindness
Loving and forgiving are You
Verse 1
All my being bless the Lord
Bless the holy name of God
All my being bless the Lord
Remembering the goodness of God
Verse 2
God forgives us all our sins
Healing those who live in pain
Saving us from final death
God fills us with goodness and love
Verse 3
Good and gracious is the Lord
Slow to anger, rich in love
God remembers not our sins
Forgiving and loving is God
Verse 4
As heaven soars above the earth
So great the love of God for us
As far as east is from the west
The Lord takes our sins from us

Father, I Have Sinned

Verse 1
Father, I have sinned
Help me find my way
Remember not my sins
Just let me hear you say
Refrain
I forgive you, I love you
You are mine, take my hand.
Go in peace, sin no more,
Beloved one.
Verse 2
Father, I have turned
My back and walked away
Depended on my strength
And lived life my own way
Verse 3
Father, I have closed
My heart to those in need
Thought only of myself
A victim of my greed
Verse 4
Father, I have loved
If love’s the word to use
I’ve played so many games
They’ve left me so confused
Verse 5
Father, I’ve returned
I’m home with you to stay
Standing at your door
Knowing that you’ll say
