Thy Praises

All our praise to Thee, Father;
All our praise to Thee, Son;
All our praise to Thee, Spirit;
Three persons in One. (3 times)

Oh, our Lord, Thou are holy;
Oh, our Lord, Thou are King;
Oh, our Lord, Thou are lovely;
Thy praises we sing. (3 times)

May our lives bring Thee glory;
May our tongues bring Thee praise;
May our love bring Thee honor;
Thy name do we raise. (3 times)

Oh, our Lord, Thou are holy;
Oh, our Lord, Thou are King;
Oh, our Lord, Thou are lovely;
Thy praises we sing. (3 times)

Note:  Last month  I made up a tune in the shower, and the next day as I put the tune to the banjo, I sang this simple praise song to fit the music.  As we meditate on the goodness and love of our God, praises flow out of our souls.  It could be expressed through music and poems, yet it is also expressed through virtuous living and acknowledgement of our dependency on our Creator.  When we fall because of our frailty, God is with us to help us stand again.  All praise to our merciful God!
