Psalm 147
Praise the Lord
It’s good to sing to Him about His goodness
It’s enjoyable, a thing of beauty
The Lord has built up His church
He is the one who brings in His people from unknown places
He heals those who are broken inside
He makes safe the causes of that brokenness
He knows how many stars are in the sky
He remembers their names (He was there when they received them)
Our God is amazing and has no lack of power
He knows and understands everything about everything
The Lord not only takes care of the humble, He exalts them
The wicked are cut off from His help (unless they become humble in time of course)
Sing praise to the Lord with exuberant gratitude
Sing praises accompanied by your guitar to God
He’s the cloud Creator
He's the one who waters the earth
The one who dresses the mountains with grass
He provides food for wild animals
He hears the cry of young ravens and is moved
It’s not the strength of horses he delights in (or the greatest help men can employ)
Not the legs, not the best of men's strength
He finds joy in those who fear Him (those who realize who He is)
He delights in those who hope is in His mercy (the same mercy that cares for even obscure animals)
Praise the Lord REACH Philadelphia
Praise Him blessed of the Lord
He is Your defender
He cares for your young
He give You peace among yourselves
And blesses You with the best for your needs
When He gives the word
Time is no obstacle
The beautiful snow is His covering creation
He can cover the ground with frost as well as ashes
He has abundant hail to dish out
Who is His match?
Just as easily He can melt the frigid
Bring the wind and let the waters flow for new life
He has made His word known to us
We know his rules and the consequences of our actions
This is our special privilege as His people
Those without His Word don’t get know what causes what
God has been so good to us!
