Songs Of Thanks And Praise



And each morning and evening they stood before the LORD to sing songs of thanks and praise to him.

1 Chronicles 23:30



Heavenly Father,


May the song of my heart and the song on my lips, always be one of thanks and praise to You!


In the morning when I rise, may my first thoughts be thankful ones, raised to You—for You are good and gracious to me and Your merciful, compassionate and unfailing love for me endures forever.

Your love for me is so great that You see beyond my own wants and never fail to provide me with what I really need—so that I might walk in peace, joy, hope, and love, through a right relationship of willing obedience to You.

You complete me—by offering to perfectly fill every empty longing of my heart with Your presence, power and plan, so that I am made whole.

So may I constantly declare who You are in my thoughts, and by my words and actions, joyfully celebrating in praise to You—so the whole world might hear of Your wonderful greatness.

For You are worthy of all the praise, honor and glory I can give.  You are the one and only LORD God Almighty, Creator of everything there that is or ever shall be.  There is none like You.

And in the evening when I return to rest, may my last thoughts before sleep, be thankful ones, raised to You—for You are good and gracious to me and Your merciful, compassionate and unfailing love for me endures forever.


May the song of my heart and the song on my lips, always be one of thanks and praise to You!


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
