Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul, worship His holy Name.
Sing like never before, O my soul. I’ll worship Your holy Name.
Verse 1
The sun comes up, it’s a new day dawning;
It’s time to sing Your song again.
Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me,
Let me be singing when the evening comes.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul, worship His holy Name.
Sing like never before, O my soul. I’ll worship Your holy Name.
Verse 2
You’re rich in love and You’re slow to anger,
Your Name is great and Your heart is kind;
For all Your goodness I will keep on singing,
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find.
– Matt Redman
Loving God, this morning we choose to bless you, to worship your Holy Name, and to give thanks for your love which you have lavished on us. We praise you that we are called your children; you have called us by name and you have promised to always be with us, to strengthen and hold us by your powerful right hand. God, lead us and lift us up, today and every day, and give us the strength and courage to trust in your promises.
Thank you God that we can be a part of a body of Christ-followers, that you hear and answer our prayers for each other. We praise you for your great mercy. We pray this morning for all who grieve the death of a loved one, whether this loss was recent or years ago. May the fullness of your presence bring comfort, healing, and hope. Where families have suffered separation, conflict, and broken relationships, God may you redeem and restore to wholeness.
We praise you for your healing physically, emotionally, and spiritually in the lives of many whom we love.
