Worthy of My Praise


Psalm 146:2 While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.


Whisper hope into my soul
	color my wings in vibrant hues,
believe in the silence, the song, the truth
		beautiful dreams, awakened by these…

blessings, like seas of turquoise, bleeding
	softly, quietly, inviting me to breath,
		in whispers, sighs, songs that refuse,
the moments before twilight, the Eden in my sight,
	the raw ache from a silence
		blended with my life’s hope…

surviving the drenching rains, the storm
	a melancholic flood to blame,
		erasing the stars, the stains
	like a prayer who has been spoken, prayed
		yet can’t be awoken by the last light, fading
			from the night, seeking…

lasting peace, serenity that is forever brimming
	with hope, second chances, trying, trying, trying
		to tell the world what it means to be
lifted from the muck and the mire, lifted from shadows
	that aspire to disrupt the wonder
		never allowing the miracle of His love….

to tell its story of grace and hope, it is the story
	that promises to grow the heart,
		teach the soul to always know…

forever awaits the spirit who is alive, alive with grace
	that is forever saving, always saving

		as we praise Him, always praising, 
the One who is so amazing. 

He is amazing…
	forever praising, always praising…
the Son who saves, saves, saves…
	forever praising, 
He is amazing! He is so amazing!!!
	I’ll forever praise HIM!!!

He is worthy, so amazing… just keep praising!
