Learning by Heart

Praise the Lord!
For it is good to sing praises to our God….
Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving;
Sing praises on the harp to our God.
(Psalm 147:1,7)

Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands!
Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.

Know that the Lord, He is God;
It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.

For the Lord is good;
His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.
(Psalm 100)
