Friday Focus: A Song Of Thanksgiving

 




God be merciful and gracious to us and bless us

 and cause His face to shine upon us and among us.

Selah pause, and calmly think of that!

That Your way may be known upon earth, 

Your saving power, Your deliverances,

 and Your salvation among all nations.

Let the people praise You,

 turn away from their idols,

 and give thanks to You, O God;

 let all the peoples praise

 and give thanks to You.

O let the nations be glad and sing for joy,

 for You will judge the peoples fairly,

 and guide, lead, or drive 

the nations upon earth.

Selah pause, and calmly think of that!

Let the peoples praise You,

 turn away from their idols, 

and give thanks to You, O God,

let all the peoples praise 

and give thanks to You!

The earth has yielded its harvest

 in evidence of God's approval;

God even our own God, will bless us.

God will bless us, and all the ends of the earth

shall reverently fear Him.

Psalm 67
