Hymn of Thanksgiving (verses
30-36)
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2069:30-36&version=NIV
Through our difficulties we can anticipate deliverance and
so praise God with hymns of thanksgiving. God will restore His people and reign
as King of kings and Lord of lords, and all creation will join in singing His
praises. As we praise God may we not forget the poor and needy. As citizens of
God’s kingdom, may the world see God’s image in us.
Lord our God, we praise Your name in song
and glorify You with thanksgiving. We
sacrifice our aspirations to You. Thank You that You hear our cries. Heaven and
earth praise You.
When we seek relief from a long-felt grief,
When oppressed by new temptations,
Lord, increase and perfect patience;
Show us that bright shore where we weep no
more.
Nikolaus von
Zinzendorf (1700-1760)
