O worthy, Holy Father, great are thou. excellent and majesty are You, We humbly bow down before you in gratitude and with thankful heart, magnificent are your works. We come in praise and worship, asking forgiveness for the sins we have committed before you. Against You and You only we have sinned. We come in repentance ans asking favor on the ones believing in You, and for the ones that do not know You. Draw them to come, let us speak of Your greatness to all we meet. Bless America, Israel, and Your people where ever they are. Thank you, Father that you hear our prayer. Nothing is impossible to You. Of ourselves we can do nothing. We call on You for Grace and Mercy. In Jesus name. amen.

Amazing how this brief passage of Scripture has SO MUCH to offer us!
