Set Lists: 12/4/11

Here are the set lists from the Austin Stone Community Church on Sunday 12/4/11:

DOWNTOWN CAMPUS:
Worship Leaders: Aaron Ivey & Emily Ward




Sermon: Christmas in the Valley of Vision: "Why We Sing" - Matt Carter 
Valley of Vision: Consecration and Worship
I feel it is heaven to please You, 
and to be what You would have me to be.
Oh that I were holy as You are holy,
pure as Christ is pure,
perfect as Your Spirit is perfect!
Woe is me that I am a sinner,
that I grieve this blessed God,
who is infinite in goodness and grace!
Oh that I could give myself up to Him
so as never more to attempt to be my own!
Or have any will or affections
that are not perfectly conformed to His will and His love!
Oh that I could consecrate my soul and body to His service,
without restraint, forever...
But, I cannot live and not sin.
But though I sin continually,
He continually repeats His kindness to me.
But though I sin continually,
He continually repeats His kindness to me.
So what shall I do to glorify and worship this best of beings?
Oh may angels glorify Him incessantly,
and, if possible, prostrate themselves lower
before the blessed King of Heaven!
I long to be a part with them in ceaseless praise.
But when I have done all I can to eternity
I shall not be able to offer more than
a small fraction of the homage
that the glorious God deserves.
Give me a heart full of divine, Heavenly love.

Austin Stone Worship


So excited for what is happening at The Austin Stone Community Church. We are releasing our first ever LIVE worship album!!!

I can't wait for you all to get your hands on this. These are songs that we have been singing at the Stone. Now you can sing and worship in your car, in your home...wherever you want!

The album is available on iTunes!! Get it! Austin Stone Live. 

You can also check out our website www.austinstoneworship.com for all kinds of resources. Instructional videos, theology and story behind the song, chord charts.

ALSO we are having our First Tuesday Prayer/ CD Release Celebration Tuesday night (December 6) at 7pm CT at The For the City Center (our St. John Campus) if you are in Austin you should join us but get there early. There will be standing room only. It's gonna get crowded! A night of worship!!

If you do not want to fight the crowd and would rather be at home you can still be a part of it!
We will be streaming the night LIVE on our website! So go to www.austinstoneworship.com to check it out! Tuesday, December 6th, 7:00pm CT.

This last Sunday we did our service a little bit different. We led worship throughout Matt's message. We are going through a series with The Valley of Vision for Christmas and this was the first message of the series. It was such an incredible day. This message was SO good. This is why we sing. Get a little taste.  PLEASE watch this video...some of the worship is also included (click on the arrows to make it full screen).
