Tonight the worship team will be leading worship at ‘Simply Word and Worship’, an event organised by our women’s ministry, Unique. Rather than explain this ourselves, we thought we’d just pass on the links from Catrina Benham’s blog and of course, the Kerith Community Church page for this fantastic event! We hope you see you ladies there…

It was August 2008. Bradford, UK. I remember praying for the first time in over a decade and begging God to transform my life. The worship band, RPM, were playing a song of theirs called ‘Thank You For The Cross’ and as they built into the simple chorus of “thank You, thank You for the cross, for the cross”, I felt the Holy Spirit fall on me in a way that I had never experienced before. Ever since then, I’ve been passionate about worshipping in a corporate setting with music, because personally, that’s when God often speaks to me the most. On Sunday night, God met with me again, notably more powerfully than usual…which prompted me to ask the following question:
It doesn’t have to be during a corporate worship time, or even with music. We heard a story from our friends in Albania recently of a girl who found Jesus through watching Hillsong videos on YouTube. So when has God most impacted you?

‘Drawing Near’ is one of the songs on the upcoming Kerith Worship CD, ‘This is Love’. We’re conscious that it’s not always possible to play songs with a large band in every setting, so we want to provide you with acoustic arrangements of the songs so you can use them in your small groups, prayer meetings or to worship by yourself at home. The chord charts are below – we hope you find this beneficial; please share this with anyone you think would also benefit from it!

Drawing Near
You are all I need
Strength for the weak
Comfort for the lonely
You are the answer to my cry
The One who holds my life
With arms that cradle all eternity
I’m here to rest in your presence
I have full assurance that you are
here
That I’ll find rest in your Spirit
There your hand will guide me;
You are drawing near to me
You are the power that will stand
Through Satan’s darkest plan
Lord you have the victory
You are the steadfast hope within
Forgiveness for my sin
Lord you are my certainty
Holy Spirit
It’s your presence that I seek
Holy Spirit
You are drawing near to me
