What We Sang Today - Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven
Praise, my soul, the King of heaven, to his feet your tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, who, like me, his praise should sing?
Praise him, praise him, praise him, praise him, praise the everlasting King.
Praise him for his grace and favor to our fathers in distress;
Praise him, still the same forever, slow to chide and swift to bless;
Praise him, praise him, praise him, praise him, glorious in his faithfulness.
Father-like, he tends and spares us; well our feeble frame he knows;
In his hands he gently bears us, rescues us from all our foes;
Praise him, praise him, praise him, praise him, widely as his mercy goes.
Frail as summer’s flower we flourish, blows the wind and it is gone;
But while mortals rise and perish, God endures unchanging on.
Praise him, praise him, praise him, praise him, praise the High Eternal One.
Angels help us to adore him; you behold him face to face;
Sun and moon bow down before him, dwellers all in time and space,
Praise him, praise him, praise him, praise him, praise with us the God of grace.
- Adapted from Psalm 103 by Henry F. Lyte

Praise him indeed. I forgot to mention in my post that since I have retired I have more time for God and my church now. I create the slide show that we show at every service and select the video we show. I am also now able to help with lawn maintenance as well as my usual deacon duties.
