Monday Motivation: Sweet Praise

Friends

Take a moment. Step outside. Look. Listen. Breathe deeply. All of creation is singing His Praises this morning. Let us join in and lift up sweet praise.

***

You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

Psalm 16:11 – ESV

Sweet Lord, I give You praise,

For a new dawn breaking,

Golden rays of sunlight,

Your creation waking.

Sweet Lord, I give You praise,

For the petals of a flower,

Green leaves upon the tree,

Precious morning hour.

Sweet Lord, I give you praise,

For the gently rocking swing,

Brilliant blooms on display,

Fresh fragrance of Spring.

Sweet Lord, I give you Praise,

For the birdsong in the trees,

Blue sky above,

Kiss of the gentle breeze.

Sweet Lord, I give you praise,

For the blessings of this day,

Your works and wonders,

My privilege to pray.

***

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.” The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.

Lamentations 3:22-25 – ESV

PRAYER

O Sweet Lord, we give You Praise. For Your creation sings all around us. Your majesty is proclaimed. Your joy resounds in the wonders of nature. Let our hearts sing for joy, because we are Your children, the precious work of Your hands. You love us with an unfailing love. Your mercies are new every morning! Thank You, Lord!

In the Glorious Name of Jesus, we pray,

Amen

Blessings,

Anita
