Psalm 145&146&147; Romans 5

You are great, Lord, and greatly to be praised. All your works shall praise you!

You, Father, are gracious and full of compassion. You are slow to anger and great in mercy. You are good to all, and all your works include your tender mercies.

Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures to all generations.

You are righteous, Father, in all your ways. You are near to all who call upon you. You save all who fear you and call upon you, all who find your way, your truth.

I am happy, Lord, because you are my God. My hope is in you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. You keep me in truth forever. You justify me. You feed me with your living word. You have freed me from the bondage and the penalty of sin.

You opened my eyes when I was blind, and now I can see you, your person and your glory. You raised me up when I was broken down and lost. You gathered me together with your people. You healed my broken heart and bound up the wounds of my guilt.

You lifted me up and gave me hope. Your hope fills me with life, because you have poured your love into my heart through your Holy Spirit.
