Afternoon Praise • Psalm 138

Thank You!

Everything in me says "Thank You!"

I kneel in worship facing Your holy temple 

and say it again: "Thank You!"

Thank You for Your love, thank You for Your faithfulness;

Most holy is Your name, most holy is Your Word.

The moment I called out, You stepped in;

You made my life large with strength.

When they hear what You have to say, God, 

all earth's kings will say

"Thank You." 

They'll sing of what You've done:

"How great the glory of God!"

And here's why: 

God, high above, sees far below;

no matter the distance, 

He knows everything about us.

When I walk into the thick of trouble,

keep me alive in the angry turmoil.

With one hand strike my foes,

with the other hand save me.

Finish what You started in me, God.

Your love is eternal —

don't quit on me now.

~ Psalm 138 ~
