Ephesians 2
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

Worship Suggestion:
The sound file is looped.
1. As the file plays the first time, (During Verse 1) make remarks about the blessings we receive by way of God’s grace. This grace is a gift given to God’s people of faith. Our faith in the resurrected Jesus Christ is the beginning of the path to eternal life. By faith we seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit and commune with God on this journey. We need to take time to give God the glory and the praise for this marvelous opportunity.
2. As the song continues, (During Verses 2 - 3) read the scripture from Ephesians 2:4-6 and Hebrews 11:1-6. Let the song end.
3. When the sound file restarts, sing verses 1-3.
4. Prayer, Meditation, and reflection

While life's dark maze I tread,
and griefs around me spread,
be thou my guide;
bid darkness turn to day,
wipe sorrow's tears away,
nor let me ever stray
from thee aside.

My faith looks up to thee,
thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine:
now hear me while I pray,
take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day
be wholly thine.

May thy rich grace impart
strength to my fainting heart,
my zeal inspire;
as thou hast died for me,
O may my love to thee
pure, warm, and changeless be,
a living fire.

My Faith Looks Up to Thee
