O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy Health and Salvation~ Join the full throng; Wake, harp and psalter and song; South forth in glad adoration! 2 Praise to the Lord, who o'er all things so wondrously reigneth, Who, as on wings of an eagle, uplifteth, sustaineth Hast thou not seen How thy desires all have been Granted in what He ordaineth? 3 Praise to the Lord, who hath fearfully, wondrously, made thee; Health hath vouchsafed and, when heedlessly falling, hath stayed thee. What need or grief Ever hath failed of relief?-- Wings of His mercy did shade thee. 4 Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy work and defend thee, Who from the heavens the streams of His mercy doth send thee. Ponder anew What the almighty can do, Who with His love doth befriend thee. 5 Praise to the Lord! Oh, let all that is in me adore Him! All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before Him! Let the Amen Sound from His people again; Gladly for aye we adore Him. Amen. Topics: Adoration Worship and Praise Scripture: Nehemiah 9:6 Used With Tune: LOBE DEN HERREN, DEN

Thee will I own, thee would I follow alone, Heir of Thy wondrous salvation. 6 Faithful Immanuel! let me Thy glories be telling; Ever, my Savior, be Thou in mine inmost heart dwelling. With me abide; Teach me to stay at Thy side, Where the love-fountain is welling. 7 Friend of the sinner! Lord Jesus! my spirit is soaring Where Thou art throned, on Thy head the sweet spikenard still pouring. Take me above, There will I sing of Thy love, Ever Thy person adoring.

Who Is My Neighbor?

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 14.14.4.7.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: "Who is my neighbor?" a lawyer asked Jesus, to test him Lyrics: “Who is my neighbor?” a lawyer asked Jesus, to test him. So Jesus told him a story to answer his question: Lonely the way… Lonely the traveler one day… Robbers attacked him and left him. First down the road came a priest who just chose to ignore him. Next came a Levite who wouldn’t do anything for him. Then one despised, Hated in everyone’s eyes, Knelt down to heal and restore him. Tending the wounds of the man, the Samaritan labored. He was the one with compassion, the one in God’s favor. Not by a creed But by responding to need, He proved to be the good neighbor.
