【A Life of Praise】
1. I should praise God every day.
Then I live the normal way,
For He is great and worthy to be praised.
His greatness can't be measured.
2. I should praise God every day.
Think of His love and His grace.
My heart is strengthened, always it's fervent,
Till He comes that glorious day.
3. I should praise God every day.
Look upon His glorious face,
Give praises of faith. Weak ones become brave.
Not a word the foes can say.
4. I should praise God every day.
Always glorify His name;
Joyfully clap hands, dance sing and give thanks,
Rejoice before Him always.
【Psalm 12:1-8】
To the choirmaster: according to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David.
1 Save, O Lord, for the godly one is gone; for the faithful have vanished from among the children of man.
2 Everyone utters lies to his neighbor; with flattering lips and a double heart they speak.
3 May the Lord cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that makes great boasts,
4 those who say, “With our tongue we will prevail, our lips are with us; who is master over us?”
5 “Because the poor are plundered, because the needy groan, I will now arise,” says the Lord; “I will place him in the safety for which he longs.”
6 The words of the Lord are pure words, like silver refined in a furnace on the ground, purified seven times.
7 You, O Lord, will keep them; you will guard us from this generation forever.
8 On every side the wicked prowl, as vileness is exalted among the children of man.
