Let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation

Praise and Intercession Meeting 26 June 2012

Isaiah 25 v 6-9
6 On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare
a feast of rich food for all peoples,
a banquet of aged wine—
the best of meats and the finest of wines.
7 On this mountain he will destroy
the shroud that enfolds all peoples,
the sheet that covers all nations;
8 he will swallow up death forever.
The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears
from all faces;
he will remove his people’s disgrace
from all the earth.
The Lord has spoken.
9 In that day they will say,
“Surely this is our God;
we trusted in him, and he saved us.
This is the Lord, we trusted in him;
let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation.”

Isaiah 52 1 - 10

1 Awake, awake, Zion,

clothe yourself with strength!
Put on your garments of splendour,
Jerusalem, the holy city.
The uncircumcised and defiled
will not enter you again.
2 Shake off your dust;
rise up, sit enthroned, Jerusalem.
Free yourself from the chains on your neck,
Daughter Zion, now a captive.
3 For this is what the Lord says:
“You were sold for nothing,
and without money you will be redeemed. ”
4 For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“At first my people went down to Egypt to live;
lately, Assyria has oppressed them.
5 “And now what do I have here?” declares the Lord.
“For my people have been taken away for nothing,
and those who rule them mock,”
declares the Lord.
"And all day long
my name is constantly blasphemed.
6 Therefore my people will know my name;
therefore in that day they will know
that it is I who foretold it.
Yes, it is I.”
7 How beautiful on the mountains
are the feet of those who bring good news,
who proclaim peace,
who bring good tidings,
who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
“Your God reigns!”
8 Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices;
together they shout for joy.
When the Lord returns to Zion,
they will see it with their own eyes.
9 Burst into songs of joy together,
you ruins of Jerusalem,
for the Lord has comforted his people,
he has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The Lord will lay bare his holy arm
in the sight of all the nations,
and all the ends of the earth will see
the salvation of our God.


There’s a river of love that’s here
There’s a river of grace that’s here
You’re invited to come and swim within

Fresh winds are blowing
Fresh winds are coming here
The tide it is rising

And The Spirit is moving
He’s moving

Death to the past its gone
Here’s to a new beginning
Our Gods not finished yet with us
Death to the past it’s gone

Here’s to a new beginning
Your Gods not finished yet with you

1 John 4 v 4 The greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world

Lord, turn Your footsteps towards these ruins
We need You here, We need You here

Our homes are broken and our children get stolen
We need You here, we need You here

Our God and King, ancient of days
Alpha, Omega, Jesus, Savior

Work Your deliverance in this place

Yours is the night, Yours is the day
No one is greater, come Lord, save us

Work Your deliverance in this place

Lord turn Your footsteps towards these ruins
We need You here, we need You here

In these streets filled with darkness with our children fatherless
We need You here, we need You here

(Song: Lord turn your footsteps
Artist: Godfrey Birtill)
