Tune: Woodlands
('Tell out my soul')
Psalm 145 v.13-21
*************
Your kingdom, Lord, it is everlasting
Let songs arise and Him your worship bring
His dominion it endures e'en for e'er
Let earth agree, and it with heaven share
Through all generations you are the LORD
Sustaining all through your creative word
You uphold all that fall, and those bowed down
You do lift up, and remove downcast frown
The eyes of all wait upon you here, see
They look expectantly, their focus be
On you, for you food daily to all give
In due season, and so through you we live
You open your hand, and do satisfy
The desire of each living thing, they cry
Unto you, you do hear and answer prayer
We are assured you are God always there
You, LORD, are righteous, good, in all your ways
We look to you, trust you through all our days
And holy are you in your works, gracious
Grace that reaches in measure e'en to us
You, LORD, are night unto all them that call
upon you in truth, you do hear them all
You will fulfil the desire of them who
Fear you, and will come to save them anew
You preserve all that love you, but wicked
You will destroy, their evil not be hid
My mouth shall speak your praises, worship share
And let all flesh bless your holy name e'er

If i translate your praise here to praise of the god i describe in my post today then your words today are indeed fine words. (If you feel that my post today lacks the presence of a higher power then I have to admit that that is a fault of my writing because i do feel within that such a power exists).
Thanks dusk. It's 'religion', isn't it, and what man has made of it, to suit their own ends, that's the problem? Jesus has some of His strongest words for 'religious hypocrites', and he's not meek and mild about it either.
seems ya hit the jackpot my friend.. so many tens and all in a row ..praise indeed..
Thanks Neville. Yep, Bingo! There's no tens left for poems today.
Good write Orchi.
