The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me
For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me
He sent me to preach good news to the poor
And to bind up the broken in heart
To proclaim His freedom to all who are bound, all who are bound
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me
For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me
He sent me to preach the year of His grace
And that vengeance belongs to our God
And to comfort all those who mourn and who grieve, all those who grieve
To give them beauty for ashes for mourning the oil of joy
And for the spirit of sorrow the garment of praise
And they will be called the trees of righteousness
Planted by God’s own hand that He may be glorified
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me (And I will greatly rejoice in the Lord)
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me (And my soul shall exult in my God)
For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me
He sent me to preach good news to the poor and to bind up the broken in heart
To proclaim His freedom to all who are bound, all who are bound
And I will greatly rejoice in the Lord and my soul shall exult in my God
For He’s clothed me with garments of His salvation
And wrapped me with robes of His righteousness
Yes upon me is the Spirit of the Lord, Upon me is the Spirit of the Lord
He’s anointed me with the Spirit of the Lord
Who Has Believed
(Isaiah 53)

Who has believed our report?
To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
He grew up among us a tender shoot
A root from dry ground, in Him no beauty we found
Scorned and rejected by men
A man of sorrows, acquainted with grief
Like one from whom men hide their faces
Not esteemed but denied, not desired but despised
(Chorus)
He was wounded for our transgressions
He was bruised for our iniquities
The chastisement for our peace fell on Him and by His stripes we are healed
Like a sheep before shearers is silent
As a lamb led to slaughter He said not a word
Assigned a grave with the wicked
Though no evil He’d done, no deceit was on His tongue
(Chorus)
He was wounded for our transgressions
He was bruised for our iniquities
The chastisement for our peace fell on Him and by His stripes we are healed
All we like sheep have gone astray
Turned everyone to his own way
Our iniquities on Him were laid
Surely He has born our griefs and our sorrows
He has born our griefs and our sorrows
(Chorus)
He was wounded for our transgressions
He was bruised for our iniquities
The chastisement for our peace fell on Him and by His stripes we are healed
He Who Trusts
(Psalm 32)

These are periled times we live in, trouble everywhere
Weary hearts will often give in to this world’s despair
But high and over all, our Father knows our every care
And in His Book, if you will look, you’ll find His promise there
(Chorus)
He who trusts in the Lord
Mercy shall surround him
He who trusts in the Lord
Mercy shall surround him
Be glad in the Lord and rejoice
You upright in heart, lift up your voice
For great is His mercy toward all who trust in the Lord
Soon will be the time when we will see the Holy One
Oh how sweet to know that He’ll complete what He’s begun
And blessed is the man who stands forgiven in God’s son
And blessed are they who in that day will hear Him say, “Well done”
(Chorus)
Gracious is He and slow to anger
His loving kindness has no end
With love to embrace both friend and stranger
Reaching out to one and all, who upon His name will call
(Chorus)
Mercy is His reward
For all who trust, for the pure and just
Who put their trust in the Lord
For all who trust for the pure and just who put their trust in the Lord

Hineni (Here Am I)
(Isaiah 6; Matthew 28)
Words & Music by Marty Goetz

In the temple long ago the prophet saw The Lord high and lifted up
Angels all around crying “Holy Holy Holy, Holy is The Lord, the earth is full Glory”
And a voice said “Who will go for us?” and it cried “Whom shall I send?”
And the house was filled with smoke at the voice of Him who spoke
That voice that makes the heavens rend
And the prophet said “Hineni”, and the prophet said “Here am I”
You could hear Him say “Hineni, Hineni, Hineni. Here am I, send me”
On a mountain far away the disciples saw The Lord, who had died and been raised up
They worshipped and bowed down as He told them
“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given unto Me
So go! Make disciples of all nations, beginning in Jerusalem. And Lo, I am always with you, until this age is through, all I’ve taught you, you teach them.”
The disciples said “Hineni,” the disciples said “Here am I”
With their lives they said “Hineni, Hineni, Hineni. Here am I, send me.”
But I say “Woe is me. I’m undone by what I’ve heard
For I’m a man unclean in thought and word.
But as for me,
I need the fire of your glory to purge my lips to tell Your story, My Lord.”
May you hear me say “Hineni”, may you hear me say “Here am I”
Adonai I cry, “Hineni, Hineni, Hineni. Here am I, send me”
Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me by the still waters
He restoreth my soul
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His Name’s sake
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil
For Thou art with me
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me
Thou preparest a table for me in the presence of mine enemies
Thou anointest my head with oil
My cup runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy
Shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of The Lord
Forever and ever
Lamb of God
Words & Music By Marty Goetz

Lamb of God Your mercy I have seen
Lamb of God Your blood has washed me clean
And now I can praise You all my days
For through You I am of God, Lamb of God
Lamb of God in silence You were led
Lamb of God in innocence You bled
And now I can praise You all my days
For through You I am of God, Lamb of God
Lamb of God You were laid then in a grave
Lamb of God by those You came to save
And now I can praise You all my days
For through You I am of God, Lamb of God
Lamb of God it happened as You said
Lamb of God You rose up from the dead
And now I can praise You all my days
For through You I am of God, Lamb of God
Lamb of God Your mercy I have seen
Lamb of God your blood has washed me clean
And now I can praise You all my days
For through You I am of God, Lamb of God
And now I can praise You all my days
For through You I am of God, Lamb of God
For through You I am of God, Lamb of God
For Zion’s Sake
(Isaiah 62)
Words & Music By Marty Goetz

“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem,” hear Yeshua cry,
“How I longed to gather you to Me!”
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem,” Messiah wept for you
So should we not be weeping too?
For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent
For Zion’s sake, I’ll not hold my peace
For Zion’s sake, for Y’rushalayim
I will not rest, I will not rest
I’ve set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem
They shall never hold their peace
Day or night, all you who call upon the Lord
Call upon the Lord for Zion’s sake
I’ve set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem
They shall never hold their peace
Day or night, all you who call upon the Lord, take no rest,
Give Him no rest, till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth
A praise in the earth
For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent
For Zion’s sake, I’ll not hold my peace
For Zion’s sake, for Y’rushalayim
I will not rest
I will not rest
I will not rest
I will not rest
How Long O Lord
(Psalm 13)
Words & Music by Marty Goetz
© 1994 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP
How long, O Lord, will You forget me forever?
How long, O Lord will you keep hiding Your face?
Please answer me!
How long, O Lord!
Must I see the enemy lift himself up against me?
Chorus:
But I have trusted in Your mercy
My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation
I will sing, sing, sing to The Lord
I will sing, sing, sing to The Lord
I will sing, sing, sing to The Lord
Because He has dealt kindly with me before
He has dealt kindly with me
Hear me, O Lord, won’t You consider my sorrow?
Hear me, O Lord, won’t You enlighten my eyes that I may see?
Hear me, O Lord
Must I hear my enemy say he has triumphed over me?
(Chorus)
Before, when I went astray, I learned your way
For I was chastened by Your word and Your statutes shall be my song
While I wait in patience no matter how long, how long, how long
(Chorus: I will sing...)
How long, O Lord, You’ve dealt kindly with me!

“Father forgive them they know not what they do.”
Said the one they called,
‘King of the Jews’
“Truly this was the Son of God!”
Said the Roman soldier
Marveling at the way He died that day.........

The Love of God, the Love of God

He gave all for you
Hear Him call to you who are weary
“Come to Me....”
The Love of God......

Hear Him call to you who are weary
“Come to Me.....”
The Love of God, the Love of God

There for you, there for me
The Love of God
Here for you, here for me, here for free
Jesus He’s the Love of God…..
