(one tune to 'At the name of Jesus')
********
Psalm 100 v.1-2
Make joyful noise unto
The Lord, His word true
All you lands give Him praise
To Him your songs raise
Serve the Lord with gladness
His good deeds confess
Come before His presence
Sing with thankfulness
Psalm 102 v.12-13
You, Lord, shall endure e'er
Your years they end ne'er
You remembered shall be
Generations agree
You shall rise, have mercy
On Zion, city
Your dwelling-place, favour
Shall come unto her
Psalm 102 v.25-26
Of old you have laid, set
Earth's foundations yet
Heavens, work of your hands
Created all lands
They shall perish, but you
Shall endure anew
They temporary, but you
Eternal we view
Psalm 103 v.17
Mercy of the Lord is
Everlasting, this
Our comfort, for they who
Godly fear Him do
Know that mercy, kindness
Loving, He shall bless
Gives us His righteousness
Forgives sins no less

Mate (sorry, I mean orchi) you have done it again! First stanza, in this case a justification for praising the Lord with your voice (even Fido started to howl) while the subsequent stanzas proceeded to obfuscate the situation...
Wish I would make up my mind - am I gonna sing, terrible as that is from me - or not sing?!
That is the question...
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows from outrageous singing, ....
Andy's Letham would tell ya...
Glad for the varied expressions that counts as praise... noises that are joyful!
Thanks CB.
