2025 men’s retreat

  • You were the Word at the beginning
    One with God the Lord Most High
    Your hidden glory in creation, Now revealed in You our Christ

    What a beautiful name it is
    What a beautiful name it is
    The name of Jesus Christ my King
    What a beautiful name it is
    Nothing compares to this
    What a beautiful name it is, The name of Jesus

    You didn't want heaven without us
    So Jesus, You brought heaven down
    My sin was great, Your love was greater
    What could separate us now

    What a wonderful name it is
    What a wonderful name it is
    The name of Jesus Christ my King
    What a wonderful name it is
    Nothing compares to this
    What a wonderful name it is, The name of Jesus

    Death could not hold You
    The veil tore before You
    You silenced the boast, of sin and grave
    The heavens are roaring the praise of Your glory
    For You are raised to life again

    You have no rival
    You have no equal
    Now and forever, God You reign
    Yours is the Kingdom
    Yours is the Glory
    Yours is the name, above all names

    What a powerful name it is
    What a powerful name it is
    The name of Jesus Christ my King
    What a powerful name it is
    Nothing can stand against the name of Jesus
    What a powerful name it is
    The name of Jesus

  • Christ is my firm foundation
    The rock on which I stand
    When everything around me is shaken
    I’ve never been more glad
    That I put my faith in Jesus
    ‘Cause He’s never let me down
    He’s faithful through generations
    So why would He fail now
    He won’t, He won’t
     
    I’ve still got joy in chaos
    I’ve got peace that makes no sense
    I won’t be going under
    I’m not held by my own strength
    ‘Cause I’ve built my life on Jesus
    He’s never let me down
    He’s faithful in every season
    So why would He fail now
     
    He won’t, He won’t
    He won’t fail
    He won’t fail
     
    Rain came and wind blew
    But my house was built on You
    I’m safe with You
    I’m going to make it through
     
    Yeah, I’m going to make it through
    ‘Cause I’m standing strong on You
    Yeah, I’m going to make it through
    ‘Cause my house is built on You

  • The splendor of a King, clothed in majesty
    Let all the Earth rejoice
    All the Earth rejoice

    He wraps himself in light
    And darkness tries to hide
    And trembles at His voice
    Trembles at His voice

    How great is our God, sing with me
    How great is our God, and all will see
    How great, how great is our God

    Age to age He stands
    And time is in His hands
    Beginning and the end
    Beginning and the end

    The Godhead Three in One
    Father Spirit Son
    The Lion and the Lamb
    The Lion and the Lamb

    How great is our God, sing with me
    How great is our God, and all will see
    How great, how great is our God

    Name above all names (how great is our God, sing with me)
    Worthy of our praise (how great is our God, and all will see)
    My heart will sing
    How great is our God

    You're the name above all names (how great is our God, sing with me)
    You are worthy of our praise (how great is our God, and all will see)
    And my heart will sing
    How great is our God

    How great is our God, sing with me
    How great is our God, and all will see
    How great, how great is our God
    How great is our God, sing with me
    How great is our God, and all will see
    How great, how great is our God, and all will see
    How great is our God, sing with me

  • Here and now, I draw a boundary
    Against every weapon that's formed
    The thief and his plans will pass over
    When he sees the red on the door, I plead the blood

    The enemy can't take my family
    'Cause this home belongs to the Lord
    So, I'm not afraid to remind him
    That he has no claim in this war

    I plead the blood, I plead the blood of Jesus
    I plead the blood, I plead the blood of Jesus

    'Cause my future is glory to glory
    And my freedom's been purchased in full
    For all of the weight of his suffering
    The Lamb will receive his reward

    I plead the blood, I plead the blood of Jesus
    It's more than enough
    I plead the blood of Jesus

    My shield and my shelter
    It's my defense
    I claim it over and over again

    I plead the blood, I plead the blood of Jesus
    Plead the blood, plead the blood
    Oh, thank You for the blood
    Thank you for the blood

    What can wash away my sin?
    Nothing but the blood, Nothing but the blood

    What can make me whole again?
    Nothing but the blood, Nothing but the blood

    Nothing can for sin atone
    Nothing but the blood, Nothing but the blood

    Nothing good that I have done
    Nothing but the blood, Nothing but the blood

    This is all my hope and peace
    Nothing but the blood, Nothing but the blood

    For my future, this I plead
    Nothing but the blood

    I plead the blood,
    I plead the blood of Jesus
    It's more than enough, I plead the blood of Jesus

    My shield and my shelter
    It's my defense
    I claim it over and over again, I plead the blood
    I plead the blood of Jesus (oh-oh), I plead the blood
    Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

  • How great the chasm that lay between us
    How high the mountain I could not climb
    In desperation, I turned to heaven
    And spoke Your name into the night
    Then through the darkness, Your loving kindness
    Tore through the shadows of my soul
    The work is finished, the end is written, Jesus Christ, my living hope

    Who could imagine so great a mercy?
    What heart could fathom such boundless grace?
    The God of ages stepped down from glory
    To wear my sin and bear my shame
    The cross has spoken, I am forgiven
    The King of kings calls me His own
    Beautiful Savior, I'm Yours forever, Jesus Christ, my living hope

    Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
    Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
    You have broken every chain
    There's salvation in Your name, Jesus Christ, my living hope
    Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
    Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
    You have broken every chain, There's salvation in Your name
    Jesus Christ, my living hope

    Then came the morning that sealed the promise
    Your buried body began to breathe, Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion
    Declared the grave has no claim on me
    Then came the morning that sealed the promise,Your buried body began to breathe
    Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion Declared the grave has no claim on me
    Jesus, Yours is the victory, whoa!

    Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
    Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
    You have broken every chain, There's salvation in Your name
    Jesus Christ, my living hope
    Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
    Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
    You have broken every chain
    There's salvation in Your name
    Jesus Christ, my living hope
    Jesus Christ, my living hope
    Oh God, You are my living hope

  • Wandering into the night, Wanting a place to hide
    This weary soul, this bag of bones, And I tried with all my mind
    And I just can't win the fight, I’m slowly drifting, oh vagabond
    And just when I ran out of road, I met a man I didn't know
    And he told me, That I was not alone
    He picked me up, He turned me around
    He placed my feet on solid ground
    I thank the Master, I thank the Savior

    Because He healed my heart, He changed my name
    Forever free, I'm not the same
    I thank the Master, I thank the Savior, I thank God
    I cannot deny what I see, Got no choice but to believe
    My doubts are burning, Like ashes in the wind
    So, so long to my old friends, Burden and bitter night
    You can't just keep them moving, No, you ain't welcome here
    From now 'til I walk,
    The streets of gold I'll sing of how You saved my soul
    This wayward son, Has found his way back home
    He picked me up, Turned me around
    Placed my feet on solid ground
    I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
    Because He healed my heart, Changed my name
    Forever free, I'm not the same
    I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
    Oh, I thank God

    Hell lost another one
    I am free, I am free, I am free
    He picked me up, He turned me around, He placed my feet on solid ground
    I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
    Because He healed my heart, He changed my name
    Forever free, I'm not the same
    I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
    I thank God
    And if He did it for me, He can do it for you
    If He did it for me, He can do it for you
    Get up, get up, get up
    Get up out of that grave
    The testimony of Jesus,Is the Spirit of Prophesy
    That means what He did for another
    He can do it again
    That means what He did for another
    He can do it again
    The testimony of Jesus. Is the Spirit of Prophesy
    Is the Spirit of Prophesy
    That means what He did for another
    He can do it again
    That means what He did for another
    He picked me up, Turned me around
    Placed my feet on solid ground
    I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
    Because He healed my heart, He changed my name
    Forever free, I'm not the same
    I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
    I thank God

  • Were creation suddenly articulate
    With a thousand tongues to lift one cry
    Then from North to South and East to West
    We'd hear Christ be magnified

    Were the whole Earth echoing His eminence
    His name would burst from sea and sky
    From rivers to the mountain tops
    We'd hear Christ be magnified

    Oh! Christ be magnified, Let His praise arise
    Christ be magnified in me
    Oh! Christ be magnified
    From the altar of my life, Christ be magnified in me

    When every creature finds its inmost melody
    And every human heart its native cry
    Oh then in one enraptured hymn of praise
    We'll sing Christ be magnified
    Oh, be lifted high, Jesus

    Oh! Christ be magnified
    Let His praise arise
    Christ be magnified in me, Oh! Christ be magnified
    From the altar of my life
    Christ be magnified in me

    I won't bow to idols, I'll stand strong and worship You
    And if it puts me in the fire, I'll rejoice 'cause You're there too
    I won't be formed by feelings, I hold fast to what is true
    If the cross brings transformation then I'll be crucified with You
    'Cause death is just the doorway into resurrection life
    And if I join You in Your suffering, then I'll join You when You rise
    And when You return in glory with all the angels and the saints
    My heart will still be singing, my song will be the same

    Oh! Christ be magnified, Let His praise arise
    Christ be magnified in me, Oh! Christ be magnified
    From the altar of my life,  Christ be magnified in me
    Oh! Christ be magnified, Let His praise arise
    Christ be magnified in me, Oh! Christ be magnified
    From the altar of my life, Christ be magnified in me
