Praise to the Lord, the Almighty

1
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty,
  the King of creation!
O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy
  health and salvation!
    All ye who hear,
Now to His temple draw near;
Sing now 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.

Every line of this great hymn is powerful. "The King of creation". He keeps creating new things in my life and family on a daily to fulfil His promise.

"What need or grief ever hath failed of relief?" I have done a lot of soul-searching through this song. No grief or need (past or present) has ever failed of relief in my life...

Thank You Jesus for the future I see ahead of me!

Today our pastor encouraged us with words from this song's fourth verse. "Ponder anew what the Almighty can do." What a blessed thought. When we feel hopeless and helpless, our mighty God is not limited ever!
