O Father of hope and righteousness, rivers rejoice in thy name. How many oceans have wake up with thy honor? Hills are high and valleys are low because of thee. O blessed hope and everlasting glory, thou art wonderful in my sight. O Father, like a thousand oceans that swell up with your glory, thou art a joy to my soul. My thoughts are on thee. And my heart rejoices in thy name. Let thy exaltation be without measure. And let thy praises extend to the heavens. O LORD, thy salvation is good and my soul knows fully well. Every word that cometh from thy mouth brings joy to my soul. My hope is fulfilled in thy goodness and mercy. And who shall not remember thy goodness? Without you O LORD God, man is destined for the pit. All the billows shall cover them. And what hope is there in desolation? By thy terrible hand we rejoice. We remember thy salvation. How David said, Man is like to vanity: his days are as the shadow that passeth away (Psalm 144:4). And again he said, Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are all together lighter than vanity (Psalm 62:9). But I will remember thee, O LORD God, how you have kept me from the evil one. You stood watch over me like the stars watched over the night. Like the dewdrops in the morning, you cover me. You anointed my head with oil, my cup runneth over. Surely, your goodness and mercy shall follow me. O LORD God, how can I forget you. You have shown me mercy, more than the riches of the world. My soul knowest your goodness and mercy. Such joy you have given me. You have caused my heart to rejoice. Day and night I seek thee. I will not leave without you, O LORD; thou knowest this truth. Let my LORD God be praised in the High. Let his greatness be known by every living man. The terrible hand of God has kept me that I may praise his blessed name. The name of Almighty God is sweet on my tongue. My heart is full of the wonders of God. My soul jump for joy, like the heights of ten thousands mountains. I will stand with my God and those who stand against me shall not prosper. I have seen the wicked spreading himself like a green bay tree. Yet he passed away, and,lo, he was not: yea I sort him but he could not be found. Mark the perfect man and uphold the upright: for the end of that man is peace (Psalm 37:35 – 37). Let every man remember the LORD; for this great God Almighty is my God. All the power and the glory is the LORD’s. Let us bless his name forever and ever. Amen.
