A Prayer of Thanksgiving
1. Gracious Jehovah, deserving of praise
To you, O Sov'reign, our voices we raise
We bow to you, O Great Hearer of prayer
Placing ourselves under your tender care
Daily our errors reveal we are weak;
For our transgressions forgiveness we seek
Look! with the blood of your Son we were bought
Now our desire is by you to be taught

2. Happy are those whom you choose to invite
Into your courts of instruction and light
Teach us to know you; your Word is our guide
Here in your temple, we wish to reside
Awesome indeed is your powerful hand
Giving your servants the courage to stand
God of salvation, your Kingdom we hail
Preach it we must, for it never will fail

3. May your attention cause joy to abound;
In all the earth let your worship be found
Crowned with your goodness, your Kingdom appears
Wiping out sickness, death, sorrow, and tears
All that is wicked, your Son will destroy;
Blessed creation will cry out for joy
Shouting in triumph, oh, thanks let us sing:
"Praise to Jehovah, our glorious King!"
