('Hail the day that sees Him rise')
Psalm 104 v.27-35
********
All creation waits on you - Alleluia!
Lord, you do provide anew - Alleluia!
All look to you that you may - Alleluia!
Give them their food for each day - Alleluia!
What you give them they gather - Alleluia!
Of your gifts, loving Father - Alleluia!
You do open sure your hand - Alleluia!
They filled with good, every land - Alleluia!
But if you do hide your face - Alleluia!
They are troubled, withdrawn grace - Alleluia!
When you take away their breath - Alleluia!
They return to dust in death - Alleluia!
You do send forth your Spirit - Alleluia
They are created, each whit - Alleluia!
Face of the earth you renew - Alleluia!
All is dependent on you - Alleluia!
The glory of the Lord shall - Alleluia!
Endure for ever, tongues tell - Alleluia!
The Lord shall prosper, rejoice - Alleluia
In His works, made by His choice - Alleluia!
He looks on the earth, it then - Alleluia!
Trembles, He views it again - Alleluia!
He touches the hills, they smoke - Alleluia!
Though He made the mall bespoke - Alleluia
I will sing to Him as long - Alleluia!
As I live, will be my song - Alleluia!
Will praise while I have being - Alleluia!
Let thanksgiving from earth ring - Alleluia!
My meditation shall be - Alleluia!
Of Him sweet and wholesome, see - Alleluia!
In Him I will be glad for - Alleluia!
He great Creator e'ermore - Alleluia!
Let evil be all consumed - Alleluia!
What is proud, boastful, presumed - Alleluia!
Wicked be no more, but bless - Alleluia!
The Lord always, Him confess - Alleluia!

May The Spirit fill us with light.
Thanks Gold.
Holy moly that's a lotta spice!
Thanks Nicholas. Bit long (long-winded?) today. lol
It was indeed a lengthy one.
Well, some moan in church if hymns are over 4 verses long. That'll give 'em summat to sing - plus 36 Alleluias! They cost a dollar each! lol.
Well by the time they all get done singing you'll be quite the rich guy.
If there's 30 people in that church singing then you'll earn over a thousand bucks.
Aww, but one church would not sing any of my hymn-poems. They said it's not where they're "at". Well, I'm quite traditional. They might not know what a hymn-book is even. They're busy dancing anyway during songs - some of them anyway. I'm bit old for that lark, though I've never danced much.
Hey, good idea for fund-raising that. Charge a dollar for each Alleluia sung. Eh?
You know it. Be rich in about 4 sundays. haha.
Now why didn't I think of that before...….? lol.
My mind is now filled with enough Allelulias to last me all day - - such a lovely word of praise.
Thanks Fay. lol. That'll teach 'em to moan about long hymns in church! heehee.
HI UNCLE STEVE ~ Its 9 horas en la Manana (Wednesday) here so your Hymn & Ode has given me a real Spiitual Uplift for the DAY AHEAD ! First Clinic @ 11 am. It will soon be EASTER (Brian is comlng ALLELUIAH !) In view of massacares of MUSLIMS in Christchurch & Brexit there is much to pray about but always room for ALLELUIAS for Gods provision 24/7. Having been raised a Catholic (now an Evangelical !) I love EASTER because in Spain & the UK & NZ it is recognized as a much more Solomn & Spiritual Celebration than Christmas and it hasnt been hijacked completely by Commercialism ! The Easter Eggs & Chicks & Bunnies etc all speak of New Life & Ressurection !
Blessings & Love in the Spirit
