Adoration: Let All The People Praise Thee!

Let All the People Praise Thee!

Oh that we could praise Thee! We do not feel like praying just now so much as praising Thee—

"Oh for a thousand tongues to sing My great Redeemer's praise."

Oh for an overflowing power of the Holy Ghost kindling our whole soul, our whole being, like a burnt-offering, that we might smoke toward heaven, rising in flames of rapturous love and mighty adoration. The Lord liveth. Blessed be my rock, and let the God of Israel be exalted. He is my God, and I will extol Him. He is my father's God and I will prepare Him a habitation. Oh let the people praise Thee, great God, let all the people praise Thee; then shall the earth yield her increase, and God, even our God, shall bless us. Oh, give a special blessing to this dear church of ours. Continue to multiply us; continue to give us more gifts and more graces. Make us a holy people, and keep us so, a devoted, earnest, eager people, longing to extend the dominion of Christ. The Lord hear the daily prayers of this congregation. Amen.
