Hymn Lyrics
I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart.
In the company of the upright, in the congregation, I will praise the Lord's name.
Great are the works of the Lord. They are full of honor and majesty.
They are studied by all who delight in Him.
God's righteousness endures forever.
The works of his hands are faithful and just.

Gracious God we thank you for your gift of love. We thank you for coming to us in Jesus and for the life you grant us through his birth and his life and through his death and his resurrection. Help us to love and serve him both now and evermore. Amen.
