LET’S PRAISE THE LORD’S GLORIOUS NAME


Picture and post by Lidia Hu

“Praise be to you, Lord,

    the God of our father Israel,



    from everlasting to everlasting.

Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power

    and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,

    for everything in heaven and earth is yours.


Yours, Lord, is the kingdom;

    you are exalted as head over all.


Wealth and honor come from you;

    you are the ruler of all things.


In your hands are strength and power

    to exalt and give strength to all.


Now, our God, we give you thanks,

    and praise your glorious name.”

I Chronicles 29: 10-13

With and in

Every sunset

I see you,

My Lord


With and in

Every sunset

I sense you

My God


With and in

Every sunset

I feel a pull

Towards you


With and in

Every sunset

You send

Amazement


With and in

Every sunset

You reveal

Grandeur 


With and in

Every sunset

You provide

Hope


With and in

Every sunset

You reveal

Your heart


Like a rainbow

Sunsets reflect

Promises for

Our tomorrows

Lord,


When my

Eyes fail me

May my lips 

Praise you

When I feel

Your sunset

 

When my lips

Can’t utter

The words

May my

Face reveal

My gratitude


If my face

Can’t express

My emotions

May my tears

Be droplets

Of pure joy


For my heart

Will remember 

The sunsets

You allowed

My eyes

To see
