Neh 9:5 Then the Levites, Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, "Stand up and bless the LORD your God from everlasting to everlasting. Blessed be your glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.
Neh 9:6 "You are the LORD, you alone. You have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them; and you preserve all of them; and the host of heaven worships you.
........
Psa 117:1 O praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.
Psa 117:2 For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD.
........
Joh 4:23 But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him.
Joh 4:24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."

Oh Lord, not through any merit of our own, but by your Great Mercy, you have called us to Come to the Cross and be Saved.
The Voice of Him who spoke the worlds into existence has Himself called us by name and cleansed us with His own Blood.
The Worship by Spirit and Truth belong to "...the general assembly and church of the Firstborn, which are written in heaven... and to the spirits of just men made perfect...."
We fall down and worship.
I ask a special Blessing of your Presence with my brothers and sisters.
I thank you for revelation by your Spirit and your Word.
I thank you for the love of Truth.
I thank you for the Body of Christ and the miracle of your love in it, til we come to that measure....

Eph 4:15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
Eph 4:16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

Isa 43:1 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.

Stand up and bless the Lord
Ye people of His choice;
Stand up and bless the Lord your God
With heart and soul and voice.

Though high above all praise,
Above all blessing high,
Who would not fear His holy Name,
And laud and magnify?

O for the living flame
From His own altar brought,
To touch our lips, our minds inspire,
And wing to heaven our thought!

There, with benign regard,
Our hymns He deigns to hear;
Though unrevealed to mortal sense,
Our spirits feel Him near.

God is our Strength and Song,
And His salvation ours;
Then be His love in Christ proclaimed
With all our ransomed powers.

Stand up and bless the Lord;
The Lord your God adore;
Stand up and bless His glorious Name;
Henceforth forevermore.



Joy is a fruit that will not grow
In nature’s barren soil;
All we can boast, till Christ we know,
Is vanity and toil.

But where the Lord has planted grace;
And made His glories known;
There fruits of heavenly joy and peace
Are found, and there alone.

A bleeding Savior seen by faith,
A sense of pard’ning love;
A hope that triumphs over death,
Give joys like those above.

To take a glimpse within the veil,
To know that God is mine;
Are springs of joy that never fail,
Unspeakably divine!

These are the joys which satisfy,
And sanctify the mind;
Which make the spirit mount on high,
And leave the world behind.

No more, believers, mourn your lot,
But if you are the Lord’s;
Resign to them that know Him not,
Such joys as earth affords.
--John Newton, Olney Hymns

John Newton's Hymns are Incredible, and a Blessing of the Grace of Heaven! Thank you for Posting them that we may Partake of their Manna, Dear bp7, and Thank you to Everyone for Every Blessing!

"Take a long, hard look;
See how great God is;
Infinite,
Greater than anything
We could ever imagine
Or figure out.
He pulls water up
Out of the sea,
Distills it, and fills up
His rain-cloud cisterns.
Then the skies open up
And pour out soaking showers
On everyone.
Does anyone have the slightest idea
How this happens?
How he arranges the clouds,
How he speaks in thunder?
Just look at that lightning,
His sky-filling light show
Illumining the dark depths of the sea!
These are the symbols
Of his sovereignty,
His generosity, his loving care.
He hurls arrows of light,
Taking sure and accurate aim.
The High God roars in the thunder,
Angry against evil." (Job:26-33)

Your Greatness, O God, Awes our Very Souls! Blessed God, Israel's God, the One and Only, Wonder-Working God! (Ps.72:18) You're All I want in Heaven, You're All I Want on Earth. (Ps.73:25) We Will Praise You throughout Eternity, Shepherd-King. God is Magnificent; He can Never be Praised Enough. (Ps.145:3) You are So Gracious, Abba-Father, Filled with Such Merciful Love. We Sing a Song of Love to You, as we Glorify King Jesus, Amen.
