Hebrews 13:15 – By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. He is the wisdom that gives me the chance To learn and grow and become who I am The child that leans on Him through it all Praising Him for the blessings He imparts He is the strength that helps me when I’m weak Renews my broken spirit and fulfills my dreams Enlightens me with words of true encouragement And grace that reminds me to always be kind He is the compassion that surrounds my soul When I feel so alone, without even one friend There is comfort in His presence that soothes me And reminds me that all pleasure is found in Him He is the joy of the Lord that strengthens me Whenever I am down, gladness that I know Him Surrounds me with a deep and cherished pearl, The whisper of His still, small voice speaking to me He is the warmth of home’s comforting hearth Surrounding me with a sense of truth and hope Inspiring in me the opportunity to spread my wings Free to sing to Him of all the mysteries that I foresee He is the truth when I seek for answers to my worries There to bring to me the guidance toward a purpose Of giving back at every opportunity to be generous With a spirit of love and sincerity that knows His benefits He is the hand that holds me up when I would fall down Grasping me within His palm to keep me from pain Knowing me better than I even know myself at heart Revealing to me that I have all I need with Him at my side He is the answer to every question, every prayer I pray With Him, I have every need met, everything is okay With Him, there are no doubts, anxieties or worries He makes sure that I am fulfilled with His tender promises I’m so thankful for this God who I praise with every thought Without Him, I wouldn’t know what to make of this life
