Tune: Dundee
(one tune to 'O God of Bethel')
**********
Proskuneo, to self prostrate
Before the Lord, He great
To bow in worship, reverence
And His true presence sense
To adore, to kiss, as dog shows
To its master, it knows
Him, and faithfully licks his hand
Relationship understands
Luke 4 v.8
Jesus did to the Devil say
Be gone and go your way
For 'tis written, You shall worship
The Lord in deed and lip
Luke 4 v.8
Him only shall you serve, and none
Take His place, he the one
Worthy of all to have first place
And praise from every race
Revelation 15 v.4
Who shall not fear you, O Lord great
And glorify your state
You only holy, nations all
Shall worship, on you call
John 4 v.24
God is a Spirit, and they who
Worship Him, such must do
Worship Him in truth and spirit
For such a stance is fit

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.6.8.6. metre. Nope, I don't know much Hebrew at all. All the words in this 'Praise' series appeared in a list online!

True - God is a Spirit and has nothing to do with christianity.
Good write Orchi.

Thanks Gold. Ahh - one phrase often heard is 'Christianity is Christ'.
Afternoon Uncle Steve ~ Thanks for sharing a Golden Oldie from the Scottish Psalter - very uplifting !
A bit Theologically academic today invoking the GREEK
PROSCUNEO is a very powerful word invoking as you say *Total AWE in the presence of GOD* Some ofthis essential awe & reverence is missing in some of the Happy Clappy Churches but they do compensate it with JOY & LOVE !
Blessings to You & Your Charismatic Cur
Spritual Love ANGELA - BRIAN & SMOKEY !
Thanks A&B.
