Tune: Forest Green

('I sing the mighty power of God')

Psalm 118 v.25-29

*********

This is the day the Lord had made

Has ordered and displayed

We will rejoice in it, be glad

Not staying always sad

Save now I beseech, O Lord

And help us by your word

I pray, send us prosperity

That we your good works see

 

Blessed be they that come in the name

Of the Lord, with no blame

We have blessed you, and this be how

Blessed you from His house now

The house of the Lord, His people

He does there with then dwell

God is the Lord, has shown us light

We worship in His sight

 

Let us bring Him gifts, praises true

And thankfulness renew

Ready to sacrifices make

Self deny for His sake

You are my God, I will you praise

Will exalt you, up raise

Thanks to the Lord, for He good be

His mercy lasting, see

    Yet another beautiful hymn you say you cannot sing and yet pen such songs each new day brings yet another homage of heartfelt love and Faith. 😇

      Thanks WH. Oh, it's a standing joke on here, that I sing like two cats fighting! It's my own doing. I told them I couldn't sing. heehee.

      What gifts will you provide to god for failing to save all the lives he allowed to perish in the storms he failed to control year after year? How blind you are worshipping this god.

        Thanks dusk. I don't know - if I was in that position.
        Or to be daft - if the shoe was on the other foot, I would have two let or two right feet!

          Well you bring the gift of worship which means you worship a god who chooses to kill people cos he doesn't exert the control you seem to think he has..... dual standards on your part.
