Savior More than Life to Me 

 John 14
1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Worship Suggestion:
The sound file is looped.
1. As the song plays the first time (During Verse 1), make remarks about contemplating the struggles and the sacrifice Jesus Christ made for us through His death and resurrection. Emphasize that as we face our challenges and struggles, we need Jesus Christ to guide our every step - both physically and spiritually. Our inspiration is found in the promise he made to us when He told us that He is preparing a place for us in heaven. If we keep our hearts focused on His promises,

our faith will increase and the tides of life will turn in our favor.
2. As the song continues, (During Verses 2 - 3) read the scripture from the book of John 14:1-7 and Revelation 3:20-22. Let the song end.
3. When the song restarts, sing Verses 1 - 3 together.
4. Prayer and Meditation.

Savior, more than life to me,
I am clinging, clinging close... to Thee;
Let Thy precious blood applied,
Keep me ever, ever near.... Thy side.
Refrain:
Ev'ry day, ev'ry hour,
Let me feel thy cleansing pow'r;
May Thy tender love to me
Bind me closer, closer, Lord... to Thee.

Through this changing world below,
Lead me gently, gently as... I go;
Trusting Thee, I cannot stray,
I can never, never lose...my way. (Refrain)

Let me love Thee more and more,
Till this fleeting, fleeting life... is o'er;
Till my soul is lost in love,
In a brighter, brighter world... above.(Refrain)
