Mighty Fortress is Our God, A

VERSE 1
A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing;
our helper he, amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
does seek to work us woe;
his craft and power are great,
and armed with cruel hate,
on earth is not his equal.

VERSE 2
Did we in our own strength confide,
our striving would be losing,
were not the right Man on our side,
the Man of God’s own choosing.
You ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is he;
Lord Sabaoth his name,
from age to age the same;
and he must win the battle.

VERSE 3
And though this world, with devils filled,
should threaten to undo us,
we will not fear, for God has willed
his truth to triumph through us.
The prince of darkness grim,
we tremble not for him;
his rage we can endure,
for lo! his doom is sure;
one little word shall fell him.

VERSE 4
That Word above all earthly powers
no thanks to them abideth;
the Spirit and the gifts are ours
through him who with us sideth.
Let goods and kindred go,
this mortal life also;
the body they may kill:
God’s truth abideth still;
his kingdom is forever!

Be Thou My Vision

VERSE 1
Be thou my vision, oh Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me, save that thou art
Thou my best thought, by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, thy presence my light 

VERSE 2
Be thou my wisdom and thou my true word
I ever with thee and thou with me, Lord
Thou my great Father, and I thy true son
Thou in me dwelling, and I with thee one 

VERSE 3
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise
Thou mine inheritance, now and always
Thou and thou only, first in my heart
High King of heaven, my treasure thou art 

VERSE 4
High King of heaven, my victory won
May I reach heaven’s joys, O bright heaven’s sun
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall
Still be my vision, O ruler of all 

Nothing But the Blood of Jesus

VERSE 1
What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus 

CHORUS
Oh, precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow!
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus! 

VERSE 2
For my pardon, this I see
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
For my cleansing, this I plead
Nothing but the blood of Jesus 

VERSE 3
This is all my hope and peace
Nothing but the blood of Jesus!
This is all my righteousness
Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

Behold The Lamb

VERSE 1
Behold the Lamb who bears our sins away,
Slain for us – and we remember
The promise made that all who come in faith
Find forgiveness at the cross. So we share in this bread of life,
And we drink of His sacrifice As a sign of our bonds of peace
Around the table of the King. 

VERSE 2
The body of our Saviour Jesus Christ,
Torn for you – eat and remember
The wounds that heal, the death that brings us life
Paid the price to make us one.
So we share in this bread of life, And we drink of His sacrifice
As a sign of our bonds of love Around the table of the King. 

VERSE 3
The blood that cleanses every stain of sin,
Shed for you – drink and remember
He drained death’s cup that all may enter in
To receive the life of God.
So we share in this bread of life,
And we drink of His sacrifice As a sign of our bonds of grace
Around the table of the King. 

VERSE 4
And so with thankfulness and faith we rise To respond, – and to remember
Our call to follow in the steps of Christ As His body here on earth.
As we share in His suffering
We proclaim Christ will come again!
And we’ll join in the feast of heaven Around the table of the King ” 

O Christ What Burdens Bowed Thy Head

VERSE 1
O Christ, what burdens bowed Thy head! Our load was laid on Thee;
Thou stoodes’t in the sinner’s stead, Didst bear all ill for me.
A Victim led, Thy blood was shed; Now there’s no load for me. 

VERSE 2
Death and the curse were in our cup: O Christ, ’twas full for Thee;
But Thou hast drained the last dark drop, ’Tis empty now for me.
That bitter cup, love drank it up; Now blessing’s draught for me. 

VERSE 3
Jehovah lifted up His rod; O Christ, it fell on Thee!
Thou wast sore stricken of Thy God; There’s not one stroke for me.
Thy tears, Thy blood, beneath it flowed; Thy bruising healeth me. 

VERSE 4
The tempest’s awful voice was heard, O Christ, it broke on Thee!
Thy open bosom was my ward, It braved the storm for me.
Thy form was scarred, Thy visage marred; Now cloudless peace for me.

VERSE 5
Jehovah bade His sword awake; O Christ, it woke ’gainst Thee!
Thy blood the flaming blade must slake; Thine heart its sheath must be;
All for my sake, my peace to make; Now sleeps that sword for me. 

VERSE 6
For me, Lord Jesus, Thou hast died, And I have died in Thee!
Thou’rt ris’n—my hands are all untied, And now Thou liv’st in me.
When purified, made white and tried, Thy glory then for me! 

Come, My Soul, Thy Suit Prepare

Demonstration recorded on 1.15.22

VERSE 1
Come, my soul, thy suit prepare,
Jesus loves to answer prayer;
He Himself has bid thee pray,
Therefore will not say thee nay. 

VERSE 2
Thou art coming to a King,
Large petitions with thee bring;
For His grace and pow’r are such
None can ever ask too much. 

VERSE 3
With my burden I begin:
Lord, remove this load of sin;
Let Thy blood, for sinners spilt,
Set my conscience free from guilt. 

VERSE 4
Lord, I come to Thee for rest,
Take possession of my breast;
There Thy blood-bought right maintain
And without a rival reign. 

VERSE 5
As the image in the glass Answers the beholder’s face,
Thus unto my heart appear;
Print Thine own resemblance there. 

VERSE 6
While I am a pilgrim here,
Let Thy love my spirit cheer;
As my Guide, my Guard, my Friend,
Lead me to my journey’s end. 

VERSE 7
Show me what I have to do;
Every hour my strength renew.
Let me live a life of faith;
Let me die Thy people’s death.

O The Deep, Deep Love of Jesus

VERSE 1
Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus,
vast, unmeasured, boundless, free
Rolling as a mighty ocean
in its fullness over me
Underneath me, all around me
Is the current of Your love
Leading onward, leading homeward
to Your glorious rest above 

VERSE 2
Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus;
Spread His praise from shore to shore
How He came to pay our ransom
through the saving cross He bore
How He watches o’er His loved ones,
those He died to make His own
How for them He’s interceding,
pleading now before the throne 

CHORUS
Oh the deep, deep love, all I need and trust
Is the deep, deep love of Jesus 

VERSE 3
Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus,
far surpassing all the rest
It’s an ocean full of blessing
in the midst of every test
the deep, deep love of Jesus,
mighty Savior, precious friend
You will bring us home to glory
where Your love will never end 

Come, Ye That Love The Lord

VERSE 1
Come, ye that love the Lord, And let your joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord, Join in a song with sweet accord;
While ye surround his throne; While ye surround His throne.
Let those refuse to sing Who never knew our God;
But servants of the heavenly King; But servants of the heavenly King May speak their joys abroad; May speak their joys abroad. 

VERSE 2
The God that rules on high, That all the earth surveys
That rides upon the stormy sky; That rides upon the stormy sky,
And calms the roaring seas- And calms the roaring seas-
This awful God is ours, Our Father and our love;
He will send down his heavenly powers, He will send down his heavenly powers,
To carry us above; To carry us above. 

VERSE 3
There we shall see his face, And never, never sin;
There, from the rivers of his grace, There, from the rivers of his grace,
Drink endless pleasures in: Drink endless pleasures in:
Yea, and before we rise To that immortal state,
The thoughts of such amazing bliss The thoughts of such amazing bliss
Should constant joys create. Should constant joys create.

VERSE 4
The men of grace have found  Glory begun below;
Celestial fruit on earthly ground; Celestial fruit on earthly ground
From faith and hope may grow: From faith and hope may grow:
Then let our songs abound, And every tear be dry;
We are marching through Immanuel’s grounds; We are marching through Immanuel’s grounds
To fairer worlds on high. To fairer worlds on high.

O Word of God Incarnate

VERSE 1
O Word of God incarnate, O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth unchanged, unchanging, O Light of our dark sky:
We praise You for the radiance That from the hallowed page,
A lantern to our footsteps, Shines on from age to age. 

VERSE 2
The church from You, our Savior, Received the gift divine,
And still that light is lifted O’er all the earth to shine.
It is the sacred vessel
Where gems of truth are stored;
It is the heav’n-drawn picture Of Christ, the living Word. 

VERSE 3
The Scripture is a banner Before God’s host unfurled;
It is a shining beacon Above the darkling world.
It is the chart and compass That, all life’s voyage through,
’Mid mists and rocks and quicksands, Still guides, O Christ, to You. 

VERSE 4
Oh, make your church, dear Savior, A lamp of purest gold,
To bear before the nations Your true light as of old.
Oh, teach your wand’ring pilgrims By this their path to trace,
Till, clouds and darkness ended, They see You face to face.

Ekklesia Muskogee is a reformed baptist church that gathers for worship in Muskogee, Oklahoma. We confess the 1689 second London baptist confession of faith. We affirm the five solas of the Reformation as well as the doctrines of grace (otherwise known as the five points of Calvinism), and each of our pastors would not be ashamed to be called a Calvinist. We are a church led by elders, of which there is a plurality (also called pastors and overseers in the Scriptures). Our mission is to make disciples, love cities, and plant churches.
