Praise-Filled Words
Joyful gratitude to God exclaims my worshipful praise
Bursting from my heart, warmed by His grace around mercy’s embrace.
With words* of thanksgiving, I bow to the Almighty of sovereign majesty
Meditating His strength and miracles, smiting human's temporal dignity.
Voicing my love to the Lord, exalting Him for eternal salvation's gift
I'm humbled for His granted privilege to glorify Him with glad uplift.
Praying for the Saviour's favour as I fulfill His entrusted task
My faith begs for His approval while I yield to Him without pride’s mask.
Confessing sins and admitting transgressions causing spiritual pain
Repentant soul of mine approaches the Father for pardon's gain.
While Christ sanctifies my mouth toward testimony of fulfillment-glow
I persist, with His compassion, to serve Him in truth along blessings' flow.
Songs of triumph midst the Master's guidance, I dedicate with delight
Honouring Him Who deserves my best He accepts by His vibrant light
Now, assured of His presence in my daily quest, I'm serenely blest
To share the Redeemer's Gospel with others toward heavenly crest.
*Psalm 19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
