I worship you, Lord.

 I Worship You, Lord

A Reflection on Psalm 95:6, Revelation 4:11, and John 4:24

I worship You, Lord—not with lips alone,

But with a heart that bows before Your throne.

Not with empty words or ritual art,

But with a life laid open, every part.

Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. (Psalm 95:6)

I worship You in the quiet of the dawn,

Before the busy world has drawn

My thoughts away from You. I bend my knee

And give You all the praise that You deserve from me.

I worship You when the sun is high,

When tasks demand and hours fly.

A whispered “Holy” in the midst of noise,

A lifting of my hands in silent poise.

God is spirit, and His worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth. (John 4:24)

I worship You when shadows fall,

When evening stills the anxious call.

I gather up the fragments of the day

And lay them at Your feet, Lord, as I pray.

You are worthy—not for what You give,

But for who You are: the reason that I live.

The Lamb who was slain, the Lion who reigns,

The Healer of my sorrows, the Breaker of my chains.

“Worthy are You, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for You created all things.” (Revelation 4:11)

So I worship You with every breath,

In life, in death, in joy, in dread.

My heart’s one cry, my spirit’s song:

I worship You, Lord—all the day long.

Amen.
