యేసు నీ క్రుపలో

పల్లవి: యేసు నీ క్రుపలో మము కాపాడుము దేవా
మమ్ము రక్షించి నిత్య రాజ్యములో
నడుపము మా ప్రభువా - నడుపుము మా ప్రభువా ...యేసు ...

1. కృంగిన వేళలలో - అలసిన సమయములో
నా చేయి విడువకను - నన్ను నిలబెట్టు
నన్ను నీ ఆత్మతో పూర్ణముగా చేసి
నిలుపుము జ్యోతివలె - నిలుపుము జ్యోతివలె   ...యేసు ..

2. సిలువను మోసికొని - సువార్త చాటింప
విలువగు నీ శక్తిచే - నిత్యము నడిపించు
యేసు నీ రాకడలో - నిన్ను ఎదుర్కొనుటకు
నీ కృప నీయుమయా - నీ కృప నీయుమయా ...యేసు ..

Lord I come, I confess

Bowing here, I find my rest

Without You, I fall apart

You're the one that guides my heart

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You

Every hour, I need You

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You

Where sin runs deep, Your grace is more

Where grace is found is where You are

And where You are, Lord, I am free

Holiness is Christ in me

Lord, I need You, oh, I need You

Every hour, I need You

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You

So teach my song to rise to You

When temptation comes my way

And when I cannot stand, I'll fall on You

శ్రమ వెంబడి శ్రమలొచ్చినా - నిన్ను విడువను మరువనంటివే (2X)

2. కన్నతల్లివలె ఆదరించితివే - కన్నతండ్రివలె జాలిచూపితివె (2X)

కన్నవారైనా నిన్ను మరచిన - కరుణచూపి నిన్ను మరువనంటివే (2X)

ప్రేమతో నిన్ను ఆరాధింతును ప్రియుడా నా యేసయ్య (2X)

ప్రేమతో నిన్ను ఆరాధింతును

COVENANT SERVICE

Invitation:

Let us, therefore, go to Christ, and pray:

Let me be your servant, under your command.

I will no longer be my own. I will give up myself to your will in all things.

Be satisfied that Christ shall give you your place and work.

Lord, make me what you will. I put myself fully into your hands: put me to doing, put me to suffering, let me be employed for you, or laid aside for you, let me be full, let me be empty, let me have all things, let me have nothing. I freely and with a willing heart give it all to your pleasure and disposal.

Covenant Prayer:

O righteous God, for the sake of your Son Jesus Christ,

see me as I fall down before you. Forgive my unfaithfulness in not having done your will, for you have promised mercy to me if I turn to you with my whole heart.

covenanting with you that no known sin shall be allowed in my life. Against your will, I have turned my love toward the world. In your power I will watch all temptations that will lead me away from you. For my own righteousness is riddled with sin, unable to stand before you.

Through Christ, God has offered to be your God again if you would let him.

Before all heaven and earth, I here acknowledge you as my Lord and God. I take you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, for my portion, and vow to give up myself, body and soul, as your servant, to serve you in holiness and righteousness all the days of my life.

God has given the Lord Jesus Christ as the only way and means of coming to God.

God has given the Lord Jesus Christ as the only way and means of coming to God.

Jesus, I do here on bended knees accept Christ as the only new and living Way, and sincerely join myself in a covenant with him. O blessed Jesus, I come to you, hungry, sinful, miserable, blind, and naked, unworthy even to wash the feet of your servants. I do here, with all my power, accept you as my Lord and Head. I renounce my own worthiness, and vow that you are the Lord, my righteousness. I renounce my own wisdom and take you for my only guide. I renounce my own will and take your will as my law.

Christ has told you that you must suffer with him.

I do here covenant with you, O Christ, to take my lot with you as it may fall. Through your grace I promise

that neither life nor death shall part me from you.

God has given holy laws as the rule of your life.

I do here willingly put my neck under your yoke, to carry your burden. All your laws are holy, just, and good.

I therefore take them as the rule for my words, thoughts, and actions, promising that I will strive to order my whole life according to your direction,

and not allow myself to neglect anything I know to be my duty.

The almighty God searches and knows your heart.

O God, you know that I make this covenant with you today without guile or reservation. If any falsehood should be in it, guide me and help me to set it aright.

And now, glory be to you, O God the Father, whom I from this day forward shall look upon as my God and Father.

Glory be to you, O God the Son, who have loved me and washed me from my sins in your own blood, and now is my Savior and Redeemer. Glory be to you, O God the Holy Spirit, who by your almighty power have turned my heart from sin to God. O mighty God, the Lord Omnipotent, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, you have now become my Covenant Friend. And I, through your infinite grace, have become your covenant servant. So be it.

And let the covenant I have made on earth be ratified in heaven. Amen.
