Praying for Blessings for All my Sisters and Brothers in Christ.

Hark! universal nature shook and groan’d,
‘Twas the last trumpet—see the Judge enthroned:
Rouse all your courage at your utmost need,
Now summon every virtue, stand and plead.

What! silent? Is your boasting heard no more?
That self-renouncing wisdom, learn’d before,
Had shed immortal glories on your brow,
That all your virtues cannot purchase now.

All joy to the believer! He can speak—
Trembling yet happy, confident yet meek.
Since the dear hour that brought me to thy foot,
And cut up all my follies by the root.

I never trusted in an arm but thine,
Nor hoped, but in thy righteousness divine:
My prayers and alms, imperfect and defiled,
Were but the feeble efforts of a child.

Howe’er perform’d, it was their brightest part,
That they proceeded from a grateful heart:
Cleansed in thine own all-purifying blood,
Forgive their evil and accept their good.

I cast them at thy feet—my only plea
Is what it was, dependence upon thee:
While struggling in the vale of tears below,
That never fail’d, nor shall it fail me now.

Angelic gratulations rend the skies,
Pride fall unpitied, never more to rise,
Humility is crown’d, and Faith receives the prize. {William Cowper}

Thank You, Sovereign Lord, that All our Hope is in Jesus Christ.
We Trust You, we Love You, and we Worship Your Majestic Name.
Be Pleased, Your Grace, to Help us to Live to Your Praise.
Thank You for the Promises of Your Word.

"For the Mountains may Depart and the Hills Disappear, but my Kindness
Shall not Leave you. My Promise of Peace for you will Never be Broken,
Says the Lord Who has Mercy Upon you." (Is.54:10)

"The Blessing and the Honor and the Glory and the Power
Belong to the One Sitting On the Throne
And to the Lamb Forever and Ever. Amen!" (Rev.5:13)

Father, I thank you that you see and know all things and that you have all things that pertain to us under control. I thank you that you work all things together for good.
I pray that you will help all those calling out to you. Bless us with a faith in your nearness and immediacy.

We praise you in the name of Jesus.
