Thanksgiving
November 26, 2008Psalm 136
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good.
His love endures forever.Give thanks to the God of gods.
His love endures forever.Give thanks to the Lord of lords:
His love endures forever.to him who alone does great wonders,
His love endures forever.who by his understanding made the heavens,
His love endures forever.who spread out the earth upon the waters,
His love endures forever.who made the great lights–
His love endures forever.the sun to govern the day,
His love endures forever.the moon and stars to govern the night;
His love endures forever.to him who struck down the firstborn of Egypt
His love endures forever.and brought Israel out from among them
His love endures forever.with a mighty hand and outstretched arm;
His love endures forever.to him who divided the Red Sea asunder
His love endures forever.and brought Israel through the midst of it,
His love endures forever.but swept Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea;
His love endures forever.to him who led his people through the desert,
His love endures forever.who struck down great kings,
His love endures forever.and killed mighty kings–
His love endures forever.Sihon king of the Amorites
His love endures forever.and Og king of Bashan–
His love endures forever.and gave their land as an inheritance,
His love endures forever.an inheritance to his servant Israel;
His love endures forever.to the One who remembered us in our low estate
His love endures forever.and freed us from our enemies,
His love endures forever.and who gives food to every creature.
His love endures forever.Give thanks to the God of heaven.
His love endures forever.
Now permit me to personalize it:
Give thanks to my merciful God,
His love endures forever.
Who forgave all my sins
His love endures forever.
Who gives me everything I need, and more.
His love endures forever.
Who adopted me as his son,
His love endures forever.
Give thanks to God my Father,
His love endures forever!
Amen!
