in this early morning hour
as sleep does not come
and my mind is full of thoughts
a song comes to mind - an old one
How Great thou art
and the chorus runs through my mind
then sings my soul
My Saviour God to Thee
How great Thou Art
Oh my soul
Sing!
Sing of the great goodness of the LORD
He has done great things
stop to recall them
and tell them to your children, and their children
write it on your doorposts
The Lord your God is One.
Love Him with all your heart
and soul
Mind
and strength.
Yearn for Him
through every circumstance of every day
whether it is planned or not planned
and whether we perceive it as good or not
Yearn
Draw Near
Recall and praise.
Oh God - my God
Help me to never forget.
What you ahve done for me.
You God - are my Faithful Father
Jesus is our Redeemer and Saviour
and Holy Spirit you live within me ~ the promised gift
I praise you because of all you have done, are doing and will do in the future
I witness your mighty hand
through creation and in the stillness of the morning
still
and yet full of praise
as the sun rises to a brilliant glow
I hear creation waking up in praise
you said that if we didn't praise
even the rocks would cry out
So creation is doing what it was created to do.
They praise you.
I praise you - Oh my LORD and My God.
Bless the LORD oh my soul
and all that is within me
Bless your Holy Name
Even in these days
of rest and unrest
of clear calendars and wide open date books
of quiet meals in a quiet home
These days of restrictions and compliance
there is still much to be thankful for
May I never forget this as it is truly easier to whine some days
Bless the LORD oh my soul
and all that is within me
Bless your Holy Name
