Gratitude Jar

By Soibi Versatile


The Lord has been good to me
I will praise him
My mouth will extol him
My hands will wave to him.

His works are wondrous
I will tell of his great deeds
His majestic saving power
His exquisite saving grace


I will tell generations
Of his great exploits
His mighty acts,
Will never end in my lips

It shall be passed on to others
How he saved me
And delivered me
From the grip of my enemies

How he butchered those who sought after me
How he broke the chords of anguish
And set me free from the hands of those too strong for me

I will tell of his power
I will express them in lines and stanzas
In poetry and psalms
I will tell those not yet born
For time immemorial.

The name of the Lord is to be praised for he has triumped gloriously
Over those who thought they could ridicule me
He has shut the mouth of my mockers
And put an undeniable smile on my face

I will continually praise him
Yes Praise him
Who is like the Lord ?
To whom will we compare the Most high?
