Doxology

A doxology (from the Greek doxa, glory + logos, word or speaking) is a short hymn of praises to God in various Christian worship services, often added to the end of canticles, psalms, and hymns. The tradition derives from a similar practice in the Jewish synagogue, where some version of the Kaddish serves to terminate each section of the service.

Very often we engage in rituals that have the possibility to become lost in repetition. Some are too important to our salvation to lose their meaning in our lives.

Every Sunday the following song signifies an end to our services. Every time I hear the song it warms my heart. I truly hope that “They will know we are Christians by our love.” I hope that I as an individual and we as a church family will always be examples of true Christian love.

-1-
We are One in The Spirit,
We are One in The Lord.
We are One in The Spirit,
We are One in The Lord.
And we pray that all unity may one day be restored.

Chorus
And they'll know we are Christians by our love,
By our Love,
Yes they'll know we are Christians by our love.

-2-
We will work with each other,
We will work side by side.
We will work with each other,
We will work side by side.
And we'll guard each man's dignity
And save each man's pride.

Chorus

-3-
We will work with each other,
We will work side by side.
We will work with each other,
We will work side by side.
And we'll guard each man's dignity
And save each man's pride.

Chorus

-3-
We will walk with each other,
We will walk hand in hand.
We will walk with each other,
We will walk hand in hand.
And together we'll spread the News
that God is in our land.

Jude 24-25: “To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy—to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.”

“To him who is able to keep you from falling ( who else but Jesus is able to keep us from falling?)
and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy (we look forward to the day when we will be in the glorious presence of our God and know that this will be a day of great joy)
to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority (We truly know that he is our only God. We truly have no gods before Him. We know He is embued with all glory, majesty, power and authority)
through Jesus Christ our Lord, (We understand and affirm that “No one comes to the father except through Jesus Christ [John 14:6 - New International Version ...
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me])
before all ages, now and forevermore! (New International Version In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Amen.” (So be it; truly") is a declaration of affirmation found in the Hebrew Bible and New Testament.)

May God Forever Be a Blessing in Your Life!!!
