Praise God!
Let me join the great cloud of witnesses
Who praise the name of God
Blessed in my life be the name of God
From this time on and forevermore
From my waking to my sleeping
May I praise God and what She does for me
God is highest, bestest, greatest
God is sovereign
In the world and in my life
My spirit is often troubled
My doubts return again and again
I struggle again and again with the familiar problems
Depression, doubt, despair, darkness, desolation
Rage and bitterness, jealousy and competition
They are real, they can be terrible
But God is greater
God is higher than my deepest depths are low
God is brighter than my darkest night is dark
God raises me from the dust of my troubles
God lifts me up from the ashes of my efforts
God clears my mind, my heart, my soul
So that I feel secure and honored, loved and protected
Just when I feel I have nothing left to give
Nothing worthwhile in me
God’s fills my emptiness with Her grace, with Her joy
Praise God! Amen
