Free to Serve You

Out of this land
out of your great blessing
the abundance that we share
the freedoms we cherish
free to serve you
our hearts unbound
from human troubles
by the lamb of God

Pursuing blessedness
happiness not of the world
joy in our spirits instead
deeper, richer
blessedness of his sermon
his teachings on high
the words of Christ
who lived and died
who went to the cross for us

received July 1, 2010
“This Sunday my sermon is titled “Pursuing More Than Happiness,”
and it is based on Matthew 5:1-13. If you have a few minutes to read
this passage of scripture prior to attending the service, you might get
a little more out of the sermon. In this sermon, I want to challenge us all
to live with greater intentionality and to find deeper levels of meaning
for our lives. Instant gratification can be the enemy of faithful living.
Intentionality is the path to blessedness.”
