Singing blessings to the Lord

Sovereign God from heaven

Filled with all praise and glory

Grace-filled salvation beckons

 

True author of Creation

God of love with healing touch

Destined for praise and glory

Always faithful in the clutch

 

From morning into the night

His mercy and compassion

Eternal praise and glory

Guiding, leading with passion

 

Always hearing our voices

Observing our helplessness

Love-inspired praise and glory

His goodness and righteousness

 

Confessing to our Father

Proclaiming His perfect power

Sharing His praise and glory

His faithful love never sours

 

Seeking God in our distress

Cast each idol in the fire

Grace-filling praise and glory

Holy Spirit never tires

From Galatians 5:22-24:  “By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.  There is no law against such things.  And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.”

Worship and Praise

From John 4:23-24:  [Jesus is speaking] “But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such as these to worship Him.  God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

Praising with faith the Sabbath, the Lord’s Day

But, our lives needing to connect in other ways

 

Worshipping each day, receiving God’s serenity

Setting aside daily moments, faithful identity

 

Reading Scripture from the Lord’s Holy Word

Praying, praising, giving thanks—voices heard

 

Coming to the Lord with sincere-filled thoughts

Spending time with Him, connecting life’s dots

 

Sowing seeds of worship and praise with our God

Transforming by His love, perfect and unflawed

 

Reaping abounding harvest, singing with gladness

Witnessing God’s sacred harmony, never sadness

 

Filling our hungry hearts, opening up our minds

Listening to our Lord, He comes and truly finds

Blessed sun rises, starting a new day

A precious day, under Lord’s watchful eyes

Celebrate this day, riding in love’s sleigh

Nothing ever holding back, watching doves fly

 

Singing of praises, blessing this fresh start

Jesus walking with us, our daily bread

Sharing this day, between loving sweethearts

Together, God’s Word keeps us full and fed

 

Our love sparks an endless celebration

God’s love filling hearts, fulfilling our fate

Singing songs, with love and adoration

Celebrate this day, love’s delightful taste

 

Jesus shares His joy, smiling from above

Making our joy complete, filling with love

From Proverbs 3:26:  “For the Lord will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught.”

This early morning time

Brings moments of praise

Spirits gather to climb

Warmed by the sun’s rays

 

God’s Word speaks out

With wisdom and clout

 

Another day appears ready

Feet will not stumble

God’s Word marches steady

Never afraid to tumble

 

God’s Word speaks out

With wisdom and clout

 

For the humble receive

God’s favor and love

Avoid those who deceive

Look to Heaven above

 

God’s Word speaks out

With wisdom and clout

 

Arise, prepared for the Lord

He’s endlessly in control

Arming all with His sword

Leading us out on patrol

 

God’s Word speaks out

With wisdom and clout

 

This morn sings a song

Filling with God’s praises

One cannot be wrong

With Salvation, He raises

 

God’s Word speaks out

With wisdom and clout

 

Nourish us right now

God’s manna is ready

Take a knee and bow

He keeps us steady

 

God’s Word speaks out

With wisdom and clout

 

Our day comes alive

From God’s trusting light

Allowing us to thrive

‘Til day becomes night

 

God’s Word arrives at dawn

Always full, never gone
