Can you believe it, it's day 29 of September (and our month of Praise!!).. It seems like only yesterday we crossed over from the great month that was August to the greater month that is September! I am sure you are almost as excited as I am to be transiting to the even more greater (permit me please :-D) month of October!! Yayyyyy!!
So, what's your praise today? What are you grateful/thankful to God for? As the month draws to an end, it's a great time for us to count our blessings and praise the King of heaven!
While I was thinking of what and how I would like my praise to God to go today, I got a beautiful email from someone who signs out simply as 'Egee'.. She (why do I think the person is a 'she'? lol) shares her own praise to God using a very wonderful hymn (You know I love hymns right?!!)
In her own words, "This song encompasses all that our God is".. If you have never paid attention to the words of this hymn, I encourage you to. Read it like a poem, sing it out loud if you choose and let His praise fill your soul:
Praise my soul the King of Heaven
To His feet thy tribute bring
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven
Who like me His praise shall sing
Praise Him, Praise Him , Praise Him, Praise Him
Praise the everlasting King.
Praise Him for His grace and favour
To our fathers in distress
Praise Him still the same as ever
Slow to chide and swift to bless
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him
Glorious in His faithfulness.
Father like he tends and spares us
Well our feeble frame He knows
In His arms He gently bears us
Rescues us from all our foes
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him
Widely as His mercy flows.
Angels help us to adore Him
Ye behold Him face to face
Sun and moon bow down before Him
Dwellers all in time and space
Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him
Praise with us the God of grace.
God bless you
Egee
