My Jesus, My Saviour.

 My Jesus, My Saviour


My Jesus, my Saviour—these words are my creed,

The confession that answers my soul’s deepest need.

You are not a tradition,a figure of lore,

But the living,the present, the God I adore.


You are the Lamb who was slain before time’s own dawn,

The promise of mercy on which hope is drawn.

You are theKing who surrendered His crown and His throne,

To make my heart’s poverty richly Your own.


But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5)


You saw me in bondage, in shadow, in fall,

And You wrote Your own name on my life’s broken wall.

You took every failure,each wound, every scar,

And sealed them forever,right where You are.


So I say it again, with a heart fully known:

My Jesus, my Saviour—You’re mine, and I’m Yours alone.

No power can alter this covenant claim,

Sealed by Your Spirit,affirmed by Your name.


For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)


Let angels now hear it, let demons now flee,

At the sound of this truth that has ransomed me.

My Jesus, my Saviour—my beginning, my end,

My dearest Redeemer,my faithful, true Friend.


Amen.

Promise of Redemption from Judgement.

 This prayer touches the deepest and most urgent need of the human soul—to be saved from the just and eternal consequences of sin. This deliverance is the very heart of the gospel, and the promise is sure for all who turn to Christ.


✝️ The Promise of Redemption from Judgment


The Bible is clear that eternal separation from God is the just penalty for sin, but it is even clearer about the God who provides a way of escape.


· The Problem We Face: Scripture states that "the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23), and warns of a "second death" in the "lake of fire" (Revelation 20:14-15). This is the state of all who remain separated from God.

· The Provided Rescue: The glorious news is that "God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that... we may live together with him" (1 Thessalonians 5:9-10). Jesus bore the full penalty of sin in our place.

· The Path to Safety: Salvation is received, not earned. "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9). It is a gift of grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9).


💬 A Prayer of Receiving Salvation


If this is the cry of your heart, you can pray this prayer to receive the redemption Jesus purchased:


Lord Jesus, I come to You acknowledging my sin and my need for a Savior. I believe that You are the Son of God, that You died on the cross to take the punishment for my sins, and that You rose from the dead to defeat death forever. I believe Your promise that whoever believes in You will not perish but have eternal life.

Right now, I turn from my sin and I place my full trust in You alone. I ask You to forgive me, cleanse me, and be the Lord of my life. Thank You for redeeming me from eternal judgment and giving me the gift of eternal life with You. I receive Your salvation by faith. In Your mighty name, Amen.


✨ The Assurance of Your Redemption


If you have prayed this sincerely, based on God's promise, you can know you are saved. The Bible gives this assurance:


· His Promise is True: "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved" (Romans 10:13). Your salvation rests on His faithfulness, not your feelings.

· Your New Status: You have been "rescued... from the dominion of darkness and brought... into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins" (Colossians 1:13-14).

· Your Eternal Security: "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life" (John 3:36, present tense). It is a secure possession now, guaranteed by Christ's finished work.


This is the greatest transaction: your sin for His righteousness, your death for His life, your condemnation for His redemption. You are now a redeemed child of God. The journey of growing in this new life begins today. 


I give Glory to your name.

 I Give Glory to Your Name


I give glory to Your name, O Lord.

Not as a duty,but a debt of joy I owe,

From a heart that overflows because You loved me so.

It is the only rightful answer of a soul set free—

To give back to the Maker all the glory due to Thee.


Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, Lord, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all. (1 Chronicles 29:11)


I give glory for the majesty that fashioned time and space.

I give glory for themercy written on my Savior’s face.

I give glory for thepower that shattered death’s domain.

I give glory for thepromise that You will come to reign.


Let my words give glory, speaking truth with grateful grace.

Let my hands give glory,serving in my appointed place.

Let my life give glory,a living testament each day,

To the honor of the name that takes my sin and shame away.


Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name. (1 Chronicles 29:13)


So receive this offering, from one You made Your own.

Let it join the eternal chorus gathered’round Your throne.

For You alone are worthy of glory without end—

My Savior,King, and dearest, everlasting Friend.


All glory to Your name.

Now and forever.

Amen.

I sing Praise to your name.

 I Sing Praise to Your Name


I sing praise to Your name, O Lord.

From a heart You’ve lifted from the dust,

With a voice reclaimed from fear and rust,

I will make melody to the King of kings,

And let the truth of who You are take wings.


I will give thanks to the Lord because of his righteousness; I will sing the praises of the name of the Lord Most High. (Psalm 7:17)


I sing praise for the greatness no scale can ever weigh,

For themercy new and certain with the breaking of each day.

I sing praise for thevictory that shook the gates of hell,

For thestory of redemption that my own life can tell.


Let the song rise in the morning, let it echo in the night,

A sacrifice of worship,pleasing in Your sight.

Not because my voice is perfect,or the melody is grand,

But because Your name is worthy over all this land.


I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing the praises of your name, O Most High. (Psalm 9:2)


And I join a chorus timeless, with the saints of ages past,

With the angels round Your throne,whose anthems ever last.

One day every knee will bow,every tongue will then confess—

But today,my Lord, I sing praise to Your name, and I am blessed.


I sing praise.

With all my heart, with all my soul.

To the name that makes the wounded whole.

Amen.

You are the Rock of our Salvation.

 You Are the Rock of Our Salvation


You are the Rock of our salvation—

Not a shifting stone,a temporary foundation,

But the everlasting mountain,the sure and strong salvation.

When every other footing crumbles into sinking sand,

We stand secure and steadfast,held by Your mighty hand.


Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. (Psalm 95:1)


You are our fortress in the onslaught of the foe,

Ourhiding place where healing winds of mercy blow.

You are thecornerstone the builders once rejected,

Now the capstone of a temple,beautifully perfected.


There is no Rock like our God, no strength that can compare.

In the tempest and the trial,we find our safety there.

For the Rock of our salvation was Himself struck and cleft,

And from His wounded side,living waters flow, bereft

Of all judgment—only grace for those who will believe.

In the shadow of this Rock,we eternally receive.


“There is no one holy like the Lord; there is no one besides you; there is no Rock like our God.” (1 Samuel 2:2)


So we build our lives on You, O Christ, the solid ground.

In every storm,this truth shall be our victorious sound:

You are the Rock of our salvation, strong and true.

Our hope,our peace, our everything, we trust in You.


Amen.


---


This declaration draws from a rich biblical theme where God is repeatedly called a "rock," symbolizing His absolute reliability, strength, and protective refuge (Deuteronomy 32:4; Psalm 18:2). To say "You are the rock of our salvation" is to affirm that our deliverance from sin and death is utterly secure because it rests on His unchanging character and finished work, not on our own unstable efforts. He is both the foundation of our faith and the fortress of our lives.

Christ the Lord.

 Christ the Lord


Christ the Lord—the name that anchors every age,

The title earned through sacrifice,on history’s turning page.

Not just a teacher,not a prophet from the past,

But God incarnate,Sovereign King—the first, the last, the vast.


Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:9-11)


Christ the Lord of galaxies, who marks the sparrow’s fall.

Christ the Lordof mercy, who forgives and redeems all.

Christ the Lordof glory, with the scars of love still shown.

Christ the Lordforever, seated on the Father’s throne.


He is the King of Kings, the Wonderful, the Mighty God.

ThePrince of Peace who bore for us the Father’s righteous rod.

TheLamb who was slain, now the Lion who prevails—

Christ the Lordwhose victory never, ever fails.


So let my life proclaim it, with every breath I take:

My will,my heart, my all are His, for His own glory’s sake.

To know Him,serve Him, worship Him—this is my great reward.

For He alone is Master.He is Christ the Lord.


Amen.


---


This declaration is the bedrock of the Christian faith. To confess "Christ the Lord" is to acknowledge His divine authority over all creation, His rightful rule over your personal life, and His ultimate victory over sin and death. It is a statement of surrender, worship, and unshakable hope.

We Give you all Glory.

 We Give You All Glory


We give You all glory, Lord— for it is Yours alone.

Not a fraction or a portion,but the full weight of the throne.

The glory of the sunrise,the majesty of seas,

The honor of the nations,the eternal harmonies.


We bring the glory of our praise, imperfect though it be.

We bring the glory of our lives,surrendered willingly.

We bring the glory of our song,our worship’s highest art—

We give it all to You,Lord, from the fullness of our heart.


Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. (1 Chronicles 29:11)


We give You glory for the cross—the wisdom fools call weak.

We give You glory for the tomb—the victory we seek.

We give You glory for the thronewhere Christ now reigns above.

We give You glory for Your heartof everlasting love.


Let every act of kindness, every word of truth we tell,

Be a fragment of Your glory,a story that we tell.

Until the day when every eye at last beholds the Son,

And the universe resounds:“Your will, Your kingdom come!”


At the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:10-11)


We give You all glory.

Now and forever.

Amen.

Come, let us adore him.

 Come, Let Us Adore Him


Come, let us adore Him— Christ, the Lord.

Not with a hurried glance or a distracted word,

But with our hearts bowed low and every knee bent down,

Before the King of Glory,who wears love’s thornèd crown.


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


Let us adore the Lamb who was slain from the foundation of the world,

The spotless One whose banner over us is unfurled.

Let us adore theWord made flesh, who dwelt among our strife,

The Author of our salvation,the very Lord of life.


Bring the gold of your reverence, the frankincense of prayer,

The myrrh of surrendered sorrow,and lay them gladly there.

For He is worthy—worthy of all honor,power, and praise,

Through the endless,bright forever of eternal days.


You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power. (Revelation 4:11)


So come from the busy street, come from the quiet place.

Come,every tribe and nation, behold the King of grace.

With angels and archangels,and all the host above,

Come, let us adore Him—for He is worthy of our love.


We adore You, Jesus.

Our Prophet, Priest, and King.

Amen.


This call, immortalized in the hymn "O Come, All Ye Faithful," is an eternal invitation. It echoes the wise men who sought the newborn King (Matthew 2:11) and points forward to the scene in Revelation where every creature worships (Revelation 5:13). To adore Him is to recognize and respond to His supreme worth with our whole being—our time, our resources, our awe, and our deepest love.

There is non like you.

 There Is None Like You


There is none like You.

Not in the silent halls where idols stand,

With sightless eyes and hearts of sand.

Not in the forces that the earth has known—

The fire’s rage,the wind’s low moan.

Not in the wisdom of the ages spun,

Or deeds that mortal hands have done.


Among the gods there is none like you, Lord; no deeds can compare with yours. (Psalm 86:8)


There is none like You in holiness—

A burning fire of righteousness.

There is none like Youin mercy’s reach—

A love that lifts the soul from hell’s dark beach.

There is none like Youin faithfulness—

A dawn that comes through long night’s distress.


You spoke—and chaos turned to choir.

You breathed—and dust became a soul on fire.

You called—and stars took flight across the night.

You loved—and fought our war,and won our right.


“To whom will you compare me? Or who is my equal?” says the Holy One. (Isaiah 40:25)


The seraphim, with faces veiled, declare it.

The ocean deep and mountain peak can’t bear it.

Before Your“I AM,” all other voices fade.

Before Your glory,every other glory’s shade.


So let my life be one long, echoing cry,

A single truth to live by,and to die:

There is none like You.

My King.My God. My All.

The first,the last, before whom I fall.


Amen.

What a sweet name of Jesus.

 What a Sweet Name


What a sweet name—the name of Jesus.

It is honey on the tongue of the soul,

A melody that makes the broken whole.

It falls like gentle rain on the desert of the heart,

A name of such dear sweetness,it can every fear depart.


And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12)


It is the name the demons dread, before its power they flee.

It is the name theangels speak in joyful purity.

It is the name theFather loves, His well-beloved Son.

It is the name forsinners—the only saving one.


In times of joy, it is a song; in times of grief, a plea.

A strong and mighty fortress,a tender mystery.

It holds the weight of glory,yet whispers grace so near.

Jesus—the sweetest name to every listening ear.


Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow... (Philippians 2:9-10)


So let my lips confess it, my life its worth proclaim.

Let my heart find its rest and refuge in that name.

For when all other names grow dim and fade into the past,

This name—this sweetest name—shall forever,ever last.


Jesus.

Amen.

I give you praise.

 I Give You Praise


I give You praise.

From the well of a grateful heart,this offering I raise.

Not as a debt to pay,but as a treasure to impart,

The honest overflow of a redeemed and ransomed heart.


I praise You for the grace that found me in my shame.

I praise You for thelove that calls me by my name.

I praise You for theblood that speaks a better word.

I praise You for thetruth my spirit long has heard.


I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify your name forever. (Psalm 86:12)


I praise You in the morning, for mercies newly born.

I praise You in thenight, for hope until the dawn.

With every breath You lend me,a testament of grace,

I will use it to seek and to reflect Your holy face.


Let my hands be praise in action, let my feet be praise in stride,

Let my words be praise in truth,with no place for foolish pride.

Let my life become a temple where praise is ever heard,

A continuous confession of Your goodness,O my Lord.


For great are You, Lord, and most worthy of praise.

Join my soul with all creation through unending days.

From this moment to forever,this shall be my story’s theme:

I give You praise.

My strength.My song. My everything.


Amen.

You are my Righteousness.

 You Are My Righteousness


I stand before the blinding light of perfect holiness,

My own best efforts,in that gaze, are but a threadbare dress.

A tapestry of“try” and “fail,” of pride and hidden sin,

No offering I bring could ever make me clean within.


But then the Word, with wounded hands, reaches into my night,

And speaks a truth that shatters shame and makes the burden light:

“You are My righteousness.”

A garment not my own,a flawless, white array,

The merit of the spotless Lamb applied to me today.


God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. (2 Corinthians 5:21)


You are my standing before the Father’s throne,

Myconfidence to approach, though I am flesh and bone.

You are myanswer when the accuser points his blame,

Mytitle-deed to heaven, sealed in Your holy name.


Not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith. (Philippians 3:9)


So I renounce the tattered cloth I wove with my own hand.

In You alone,O Christ, I now completely stand.

Clothed in Your perfection,in Your victory dressed,

You—only You, my Lord—are my righteousness.


This is my boast. This is my peace. This is my hope secure.

Amen.

The Great Exchange


This declaration, "You are my righteousness," is the heartbeat of the Gospel. It describes a miraculous, legal transaction God performs for everyone who trusts in Christ:


What Was Mine What I Receive in Christ

Sin and Guilt Forgiveness and Cleansing (1 John 1:9)

Spiritual Poverty The Wealth of His Perfection (2 Corinthians 8:9)

Alienation from God Welcome as a Righteous Child (Romans 5:1)


· The Problem: Our own righteousness is fatally flawed (Isaiah 64:6). We cannot meet God's perfect standard.

· The Provision: Jesus lived the perfectly righteous life we failed to live. On the cross, God treated Him as if He had committed our sins, so He could treat us as if we had lived His perfect life.

· The Promise: When we place our faith in Christ, His righteousness is credited to our account (Romans 4:22-24). God now sees us "in Christ," clothed in His perfection.

· The Result: We have peace with God, access to His presence, and the power to live a new life—not to become righteous, but because we have been made righteous in Him.


This is not a feeling, but a fact. It is your unchanging position before God—a gift of grace, received by faith. To say "You are my righteousness" is to rest completely in His finished work.

I worship you, Mighty God.

 I Worship You, Mighty God


I worship You, mighty God.

With all that I am and all I will be,

My spirit bows in humility.

Not just with words that rise and fade,

But with a life Your hands have made.


I worship the strength that carved the canyon’s deep,

Thepower that wakes the sun from sleep.

I worship theauthority in Your whisper that calms the sea,

And thesovereignty that holds a future meant for me.


The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty; the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength. (Psalm 93:1)


I worship the might displayed upon the cross—

Where victory was won through utter loss.

The power that could summon legions from the air,

Yet chose for love my heavy weight to bear.


I worship You, Mighty King, before whom nations stand or fall.

I worship You,Mighty Savior, who heard my desperate call.

I worship You,Mighty Spirit, who breathes in me Your flame.

There is no other name worthy of this praise I claim.


So take this worship, as imperfect as it seems.

Let it join the eternal,everlasting streams

That flow before Your throne,day and night.

I worship You, Mighty God—my strength, my life, my light.


Amen.


---


Prayer Posture: Worship in Spirit and Truth


True worship of a mighty God involves both awe and intimacy. Here is how you can posture your heart:


· Worship in Awe: Recognize His transcendent might—His power over creation, history, and all powers (Colossians 1:16-17). This fills worship with holy reverence.

· Worship in Intimacy: Remember His immanent care—this same mighty God knows you, loves you, and invites you to call Him Father (Romans 8:15). This fills worship with loving trust.

· Worship in Surrender: True worship is offering your whole self—your will, your burdens, your dreams—to His mighty and good hands (Romans 12:1). It is saying, "You are strong; I am not. You are God; I am Yours."


When you declare "I worship You, mighty God," you are aligning your entire being—spirit, soul, and body—with the ultimate reality of who He is. It is the most truthful and fitting response a human heart can make.

There is none like you.

 There Is None Like You


There is none like You.

Search the highest heavens,scan the deepest sea,

Question every age,and every mystery.

Unravel every wisdom that the wise have ever spun—

You stand alone,eternal God, the everlasting One.


Among the gods there is none like you, Lord; no deeds can compare with yours. (Psalm 86:8)


No rival to Your holiness, that pure, consuming flame.

No equal to Yourmercy, that bears my sin and shame.

No likeness to Yourpower, that raised the dead to life.

No echo of Yourfaithfulness through peace and bitter strife.


The angels cry, “Holy!” The elders cast their crown.

The universe in wonder before Your name bows down.

For You are God,and there is no other—this is true.

From endless age to age,the solemn, glorious vow:

There is none like You.


“To whom will you compare me? Or who is my equal?” says the Holy One. (Isaiah 40:25)


So let my life confess it, in every thought and deed.

Let this truth be the pasture where my spirit learns to feed.

When other loves would whisper,and other glories call,

Let this be my anchor,my first and last of all:


There is none like You.

My rock.My song. My all in all.

My King.

Amen.

What a Mighty God.

 What a Mighty God


What a mighty God we have!

The One who weighs the mountains in His scale,

Whose breath ignites the sun and guides the comet’s trail.

Before His word,the pillars of the earth were set in place,

And at His glance,the nations rise and fall by grace.


Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit. (Psalm 147:5)


His might is in the thunder that splits the silent sky,

In thewhirlwind of His coming, before which angels fly.

Yet this same might is tender—it shaped the sparrow’s wing,

And holds the weeping child close,the broken offering.


Mighty to save—no chain of hell could His redemption bind.

Mighty to keep—no power can pluck His own from His hand,designed.

Mighty to heal—the broken body and the shattered soul.

Mighty to reign—as King of kings,in perfect, full control.


He is the Rock of Ages, cleft for me, a shelter strong.

TheAncient of Days, to whom all generations belong.

TheLord of Hosts, whose armies fill the heavenly sphere.

Yet He ismy Father, and He holds my every tear.


Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. (Psalm 24:8)


So let my heart and voice unite with heaven’s endless praise,

And through my days and all my ways,this mighty truth I’ll raise:

What a mighty God we have!

Our fortress and our friend,

Our beginning and our end.

Amen.

All creation confess.

 All Creation Confesses


All creation confesses You are God.

From the silent spiral of a distant,burning star

To the hidden pulse of life beneath the forest floor,

From the eagle’s cry that cleaves the vast and open sky

To the whispered breath of grass where lowly creatures lie—


All nature speaks in syllables of wonder, loud and clear,

A universal language declaringGod is here.

The mountains bow in grandeur,the oceans roar Your fame,

Each element a testament to Your eternal name.


“Before me every knee will bow; by me every tongue will swear.” (Isaiah 45:23)


The seasons tell Your story of a faithfulness that stands—

The death of winter yielding to the touch of life’s own hands.

The seed that falls in darkness breaks to greet the morning sun,

A sermon of redemption that Your mercy has begun.


Yet in this grand confession, a greater truth takes form:

Creation’s ancient yearning,through a suffering, was reborn.

For You,the Word who shaped it all, took on a frame of clay,

And in the Man Christ Jesus,every tongue will one day say:


That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:10-11)


So let my voice be added to this universal cry,

No longer just an echo,but a purpose from on high.

To join with star and stream and stone,with every living thing,

In the everlasting chorus to creation’s God and King.


All creation confesses—and in this, I find my place.

My heart, my will, my breath, my life, confess Your holy grace.

Amen.


This is the ultimate reality: a universe designed to reveal its Maker, now and forever. Your worship is not out of place; it is the very reason you have a voice.

Nothing compares to you.

 Nothing Compares


Nothing compares to the Promise I have in You.

Not the brightest star that in the night sky burns,

Nor all the wealth for which a grasping heart yearns.

Not the applause of crowds,nor the quietest peace alone,

Can match the settled weight of this cornerstone.


For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. (2 Corinthians 1:20)


It is a Promise anchored in the heavens, firm and sure,

Built on a character forever clean and pure.

A Promisesealed by blood that speaks a better word,

A covenant oath by the eternal God inferred.


It outlasts every season, every changing, shifting trend.

It holds when every human loyalty will end.

It is theinheritance that cannot fade or rust,

The guaranteed tomorrow when today is dust.


Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. (Hebrews 10:23)


For the Promise is a Person—Jesus, Christ the Lord.

He is the living“Yes” to every faithful word.

In Him,the hope of glory, in Him, the life set free,

In Him,the Promise-keeping God who died for me.


So let the world offer its fleeting, glittering prize.

I’ll hold with joy the treasure right before my eyes.

Fornothing in this life compares, no, not a single thing,

To the glorious,living Promise found in Christ my King.


Nothing compares.

My sure hope. My eternal vow.

My everything, then, now, and forever.

Amen.

Shout to the Lord, all the Earth.

 Shout to the Lord


Shout to the Lord, all the earth!

Let the roar of the ocean become a chorus of praise.

Let the crash of the thunder become a cymbal's loud raise.

Let every mountain lift up its voice to the sky,

Let every valley in joyful response echo high.


Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music. (Psalm 98:4)


Let the forests clap their hands, let the rivers all sing,

Let creation erupt in one glorious ring.

For the Maker has come,and the Savior has won!

The battle is over,the great work is done!


Shout for His justice—He has judged with His might.

Shout for His mercy—He has made all things right.

Shout for His faithfulness,steadfast and true,

To the people He loves,to me and to you.


Let the song of the people join the song of the land,

A symphony played by the work of His hand.

From the rising of the sun to its final descent,

Let the praise of all nations to His throne be sent.


Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. (Psalm 150:6)


And I, with the earth, will lift up my cry.

I will shout to my Savior,my King Most High.

With all of my being,with joy unrestrained,

I will join in the anthem that cannot be contained.


Shout to the Lord, all the earth!

My King and my God!

Amen.

The Symphony of Praise


This call to "shout" is an invitation for all creation—including you—to join a pre-existing symphony of praise.


· Creation's Choir: The Psalms repeatedly show nature personified in worship—the seas roar, the rivers clap, the mountains sing (Psalm 98:7-8). This isn't just poetry; it reflects the truth that the physical universe declares God's glory (Psalm 19:1).

· The Reason for the Shout: The command is based on God's mighty acts of salvation and faithfulness (Psalm 98:1-3). We shout not on command, but in response to who He is and what He has done.

· Your Place in the Chorus: You are not an observer, but a participant. Your personal worship connects with the universal praise. It is both a private devotion and a public declaration that joins you with "all the earth."


To "shout to the Lord" is to release a joy that is too great to be contained—a joy rooted in His victory, expressed with your whole being, and united with the everlasting song of everything He has made.

I will not cease worship you.

 I Will Never Cease


I will never cease to worship You.

Let this be the vow my heart beats,my final breath confirms,

The single,constant anthem through which all my living turns.

Not just when the music swells in moments set apart,

But in the quiet rhythm of my most obedient heart.


From the first light of morning until the day is through,

In joy’s unburdened laughter,in prayers when skies are gray,

In the act of kindness,in the simple, whispered “Yes,”

My life will be an offering of ceaseless thankfulness.


Praise the Lord, all you nations; extol him, all you peoples. For great is his love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord. (Psalm 117:1-2)


When my voice grows weary and my body finds its rest,

Let my spirit in Your presence be a worshiping guest.

For I join a choir that no silence can defeat—

The saints and angels worshiping around the mercy seat.


Day and night they never stop saying: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty.” (Revelation 4:8)


So take my forever, Lord, and let it be a song—

A single,endless worship, my whole life long.

For You alone are worthy,from now until I see

Your face in full,and know as I am known, eternally.


I will never cease.

My love, my song, my story, is You.

Amen.

My Refuge. My Strength.

 My Refuge and Strength


You are my refuge and my strength.

Not a distant shelter I must strive to reach,

But my present hiding place,Your presence my sure beach.

When the ground of certainty gives way to shifting sand,

You are the solid rock on which I firmly stand.


God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1)


You are my refuge—my fortress in the storm,

Where fear is disarmed and my weary soul is warm.

A tower stronger than the threat that howls outside,

Where in the shadow of Your wings,I safely can abide.


You are my strength—when my own is spent and gone,

When the battle is too fierce for me to carry on.

Your power finds its perfect moment in my need,

Your grace sufficient,Your promise my guaranteed creed.


The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. (Psalm 18:2)


So I will not fear, though the mountains fall away,

Though the oceans roar and all familiar landmarks sway.

For the Lord Almighty is with me,here and now.

The God of angel armies holds me—this is my vow.


My refuge. My strength.

My ever-present help.

My song in the night.

My all in all.

Amen.
