A Royal Invitation - Emmanuel

A Royal Invitation
 

Jesus, King of Highest Heaven, King Eternal, God’s own Son,

Gives a royal invitation, “come to Me,” the Holy One.

 

Jesus, kind, so full of mercy, praised, adored in Heav’n on high,

Gives a royal invitation, for your sins He came to die.

 

 He, the Splendor of the heavens, Shelter, Tower, Risen King,

Gives a royal invitation, “come, be healed beneath My wing.”

 

 Jesus, refuge, strong defender, God, Creator, Majesty

 Gives a royal invitation, “come to Me,” salvation’s free

 

He's the way, the truth forever, Savior, born on Christmas morn,

 Worshiped in a humble stable, shepherds knew God’s Son was born.

 

With great joy He left His glory; all for love, Emmanuel,

Praise Him for salvation’s story—God, made man, in hearts to dwell.

 

Jesus, miracle from Heaven, God’s only Son, for love He came,

Gives a royal invitation, “Come to Me,” O praise His name.

 

Honored ‘neath the starry wonder, kings adored with pure delight

As God’s royal gift so holy, glory to the Prince of Light.

 

Come to Jesus come tonight!

Staying on the Ancient Path- Hospitality



"Use hospitality one to another without grudging."
1 Peter 4:9

Hospitality is one of the characteristics every Christian should have, especially church leaders. In this video we explore what true hospitality is and it's meaning.  We'll  look at an ancient story from 1 Kings 17, about a widow, who, during a time of great famine, provided hospitality to the prophet Elijah and how the Lord blessed her for it.
