Psalms 144, 145, 146 & 147; Romans 12

I am happy, heavenly father, because you are my God and Jesus is the Lord of my life. You, father, are gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and great in mercy.

You, father, are good to all, and your tender mercies permeate all your works. You, oh Lord, are righteous in all your ways and gracious in all your works.

I call on you and you are always near me. You hear my cry and you save me. My hope is in you, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. While I live I will praise you, Lord.

You opened my eyes when I was blind, Lord. You raise me up when I was bowed down. You healed my brokenness and bound up my wounds.

You renewed my mind and transformed me into your child; no longer slave to sin and to the world’s pattern of living. But now, born again in Christ; healed delivered and set free; justified by your grace and glorified by your presence in me.

You, oh Lord, are my hope and peace. A very present person in every breath I take. Nothing can separate me from your love, Father, which is in Christ Jesus, my Lord.
