Prepare to meet your God

Come , sinners, to the Sanctuary.
Each morning bring you sacrifice and on the third day you tithes. Burned leavened food for thanksgiving.
Proclaimed in public your freewill offering, for this is what makes you happy, Says the Lord.

"Therefore I will deal in my own way , and since I will do this to you , prepare, to meet your God!"

Gods people have no idols

Not to us , O Lord , not to us
but to your name be the glory,
for the sake of your love and faithfulness.
Why should the pagans say.
Where is their God ?

There in heaven is our God ;
Whatever he wishes, he does.
Not so the handmade idols,
crafted in silver and gold.

They have mouth that cannot speak,
eyes that cannot see,
ears that cannot hear,
noses that cannot smell.

They have hands but cannot feel,
feet, but cannot walk;
neither can they make a sound in their throat.
so will all who trust in them.

O Israel, trust in the Lord ;
he is your help and your shield!
You who fear in the Lord trust in him;
he is your help and your shield!

The Lord remembers us and bless us;
He will bless those who fear  the Lord,
both the small and the great.

Heaven belongs to the Lord,
But the earth he has given to humans,
It is not the dead who praise the Lord,
for they have gone down to silence;
but it is we , the living, who blessed the Lord,
from now on and forever.

God creates, save and guide us

I thank the Lord with all my heart in the council of the just , in the assembly.
The works of the Lord is great and pondered by all who delight in them.
Glorious and magestic are his deeds, his righteousness endures forever .
He lets us remember his wondrous deeds; and the Lord is merciful and kind.

Always mindful of his covenant, he provides food for those who fear him.
He shows his people the power of his arm by giving them the lands of other nations.
The works of his hands are faithful and just,
trustworthy are all his precepts, ordained to last forever, bearers of the truth and uprightness.

He has sent his people deliverances and made with them a covenant forever.
 His holy name is to be revered !
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom ; prudent are those who lives by his precepts .
To him belongs and everlasting praise. Allelluia!
