A Psalm

Lord, You are worthy of all praise!

Hope jumps onto the wind

            and soars into the heights

            at the mention of Your name.

My heart is filled with gratitude

            that You would call me Your child,

            that You would place Your Spirit in me.

I am overwhelmed by Your love and faithfulness.

            They lead me to the place of peace and serenity.

The universe is Your dominion,

            and it cannot contain You.

            It is too small,

            and it creates small thinking.

Heaven is Your domain,

            and yet, neither can heaven itself limit You.

            Nothing in existence can limit You,

            or contain You,

            or define You.

Yet, we can know You.

            And you care for us

            who are the dust of the earth?

Lord, You are worthy of all praise!

I am overwhelmed by Your love and faithfulness.

            They lead me to the place of peace and serenity.

Amen.
