Sow for yourself righteousness, reap the fruit of steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the Lord, that He may come and rain salvation upon you (Hosea 10:12).

Song of praise


"Holy, holy, holy
is the Lord God Almighty, 
who was, and is, and is to come." (Rev. 4 : 9)
Thank You, o Lord
for who you are
the great I am
I surrender
I give in 
I look up to you for mercy
“You are worthy, our Lord and God,
   to receive glory and honor and power,
for you created all things,
   and by your will they were created
   and have their being.” (Rev. 4 : 11) 
everyday I wonder 
seeing what you made 
and I marvel 
at the beauty 
at the greatness and the details 
the completeness of the system 
that keeps us all alive 
the earth 
the wheather 
and the seasons 
all the powers 
the light of the sun 
the moon and the stars 
no limits 
to your creative well of life
“Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,
   to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
   and honor and glory and praise!”
   “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
   be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!” (Rev. 5 : 12,13)
my God 
my Lord 
my Saviour 
I am humbled
silent 
overwhelmed 
for you coming down 
losing all 
offering up 
your life 
for love 
for me

“Salvation belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb.”
  “Amen!
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!” (Rev. 7 : 10-12)
the future 
you made 
as a gift to us 
makes us depending 
starts a fire 
of longing desire 
keeps us dreaming 
of the day 
you will come 
and reveal 
your plans 
your city
 “The kingdom of the world has become
   the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah,
   and he will reign for ever and ever.”
    “We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
   the One who is and who was,
because you have taken your great power
   and have begun to reign.” (Rev. 11 : 15, 17)
the troubles we have 
the worries and pain 
the sting of death 
it makes us 
crying and praying 
longing 
expecting 
thanks for Your Spirit 
that helps us overcome 
that prays within us 
thank you 
King Jesus 
for praying above 
at your Father's right hand
“Now have come the salvation and the power
   and the kingdom of our God,
   and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,
   who accuses them before our God day and night,
   has been hurled down.
They triumphed over him
   by the blood of the Lamb
   and by the word of their testimony;
they did not love their lives so much
   as to shrink from death.
Therefore rejoice, you heavens
   and you who dwell in them!” (Rev. 12 : 10-12)
all the sins 
and dirty thougths 
all the broken dreams 
the tears we shed 
all the greyness 
shortcomings 
seductions 
will be gone 
forever  
forgiven

all the prayers 
and the wrestlings 
all the hope 
and all the actions 
of mercy and help 
of love and being around 
all the help 
and all the blessings 
rewarded with love
  “Great and marvelous are your deeds,
   Lord God Almighty.
Just and true are your ways,
   King of the nations.
Who will not fear you, Lord,
   and bring glory to your name?
For you alone are holy.
All nations will come
   and worship before you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed.” (Rev. 15 : 3-4)
for You alone 
are holy 
glorified 
feared  
forever 
You are worthy 
all of us 
people of all ages 
will worship You 
indeed
“Yes, Lord God Almighty,
   true and just are your judgements.” (Rev. 16 : 7)
and justice in the end 
at last 
for him 
that dwells in darkness 
   “Hallelujah!
Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,
   for true and just are his judgments.
He has condemned the great prostitute
   who corrupted the earth by her adulteries.
He has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”
   “Hallelujah!
The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever.”
   “Amen, Hallelujah!”
   “Praise our God,
   all you his servants,
you who fear him,
   both great and small!”
   “Hallelujah!
   For our Lord God Almighty reigns.
Let us rejoice and be glad
   and give him glory!
For the wedding of the Lamb has come,
   and his bride has made herself ready.
Fine linen, bright and clean,
   was given her to wear.” (Rev. 19 : 1-8)
how can I 
be silent 
evermore 
comfortable 
or easy in my mind 
for You 
You God Almighty 
will be united 
with the Church 
You made 
You bought 
with the highest price

so 
let's stand up 
shout out 
loud and clear 
sing praises 
to the King of Kings 
and Lord of Lords 
He will be mine 
and I will be his 
and all the saints 
say: 
Amen ...!!!
