I Will Worship!

Free for all, free for all
Over every limitation free for all
Where the Spirit of the Lord is
There is freedom free for all
...Free for all

Holy Spirit rise within us
Bring Your freedom free for all...Free for all
lyrics by Israel Houghton & Mark Townsend


Peace on Earth with dove and globe


He is exalted, the King is exalted on high...praise Him1

I worship the One Who is called Faithful, and celebrate His great faithfulness to me today ("Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is your faithfulness" – Lamentations 3:22, 23). I will worship the One Who is called True ("For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations" – Psalms 100:5).


Sunrise over ocean


I will not be religiously smug or pompous enough to claim that I know everything about Him, or that I (or my system of fellowship) own the sole rights of access to Him. There is certainly more to the great King than what I know about -- or than anyone else knows about! His revelation will be on-going and eternally progressive, and it is bigger and grander than the knowledge of men who know in part, and prophesy in part.

Today I will worship and pay homage to the One Who is called the Word of God ("In the beginning [before all time], was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself" – John 1:1 – AMP).

Today I will worship, as a king myself, the One Who is called the King of Kings.



Today I will worship, as a lord myself, the One Who is called the Lord of Lords.

Today I will worship, without fear or dread, the One Who rules with a rod of iron.

I will see the King today, and today I will live in the now!
(taken from A Year In The Now, bishop Jim Swilley)

Special thanks to Jeff Fergusson who was our special guest artist singing during the service this past weekend.  Thank you Jeff for letting our choir sing the choruses of your songs!

Don't forget the 'watchnight' service at Church in the Now on New Year's Eve 10-12!

In Memory of Toris Truitt

This past week one of the members of the Nation of Worship choir has passed away unexpectedly. Her name is: Toris Truitt, soprano.

Toris, your voice and presence will be missed, but I'm sure you are greatly welcomed into the heavenly choir.

The blessings of peace, strength, and comfort be with your family as the Spirit reminds them of the wonderful memories of you.

God bless you!

Lord, You are good and Your mercy endureth forever
People from every nation and tongue
From generation to generation
We worship You!




Is it true that You are thinking of me...it's amazing!
God Almighty, Lord of glory, You have called me friend.





In the fullness of Your grace
In the power of Your Name
You lift me up...You lift me up





Name above all names
Worthy of all praise
How great...how great is our God!





Amen! How great Thou art!

Usually the videos that are searched for and chosen here are based upon songs that have recently been sung at services of Church in the Now. Many can be of great audio/visual quality, some may struggle but the hope is that you will sense the Spirit here, and "hear the sound", and recognize the guest of honor.

May you be taken somewhere in Him today. Let your worship take you into His manifested presence. Praise the Lord, for His mercy endures forever! How great is our God!



Where would I be if not for Your grace
Carrying me in every season
Where would I be if not for Your grace
You came to my rescue
I want to thank you for Your grace

Grace that releases me to worship



Surely goodness and mercy
Shall follow me all of my life
I know I can make it
With You by my side



Lord You are my light
Lord You are my joy
Joy of my salvation
Whom shall I fear?

I don't have to worry
I won't be afraid
For in the time of trouble
You shall hide me...hide me



If you're out there
Sing along with me
If you're out there
I'm dying to believe that you're out there
Stand up and say it loud
If you're out there
Tomorrow's starting now
Now, now

If you're ready we can shake the world
Believe again
It starts within
We don't have to wait for destiny
We should be the change that we want to see



He is worthy!..worthy to be praised.
From the rising of the sun , to the going down of the same...LIFT HIM UP!!!



Hold on my brother don't give up
Hold on my sister just look up
There is a master plan in store for you
If you just make it through

The Best is Yet To Come

Today is the first day of the best days of your life
You ain't seen nothing
You ain't seen nothing Yet

Happy Thanksgiving!

Enter His gates with thanksgiving
Enter His courts with praise
This is the day He has given
Come on and bless His name


With lifted hands, enter with thanks
We've come to give Him praise



Just forget about your worries right now and let your troubles fall behind you, and make His praise...glorious.


Lord, I long to seek Your face
To come into that holy place
And worship, worship You


I'm hungry for You, hungry for You
Let Your Word make me brand new
I'm thirsty for you, thirsty for you
Let Your living water fill me through and through




This is the air I breathe
Your holy presence living in me.

Lord, we know that You live in us, but help us to "know" that You are near.



Bless the Lord, oh my soul
And all that is within me
Bless His holy name



You're the God of this city
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You are



For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done
In this city
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done
In this city




If we gotta start somewhere
Why not here?
If we gotta start sometime
Why not now?
We are one choice from together
You and me

The city is about a moment, a moment that we all come together and our differences fall by the wayside, and love fills in the cracks.  We turn our attention on what unites us, and that moment could be now.- Toby Mac

You Are My Strength
(Reuben Morgan)

You are my strength
Strength like no other
Strength like no other
Reaches to me

You are my hope

Reaches to the heavens
Your faithfulness
Reaches to the skies
