O Heavenly Father,
Your Word is right and true
You are faithful in all You do
You love righteousness and justice
this earth is full of Your unfailing love
By Your Word the heavens were made
The breath of Your mouth brought forth the starry host
You spoke and it came to be
You commanded and the waters of the sea stood in its places
Who are we Almighty God to argue with You
Or to rebell against Your ways?
We may think we are winning in our ways
But the end will teach us who is in the winning end
In Your grace, You forgive us again and again
In Your love, You await patiently for our return
Let us all fear You in reverence
Let us worship You in utter devotion
Let our mouths praise You with joyful lips
And let our walk reveal Your grace and power to the world!

Examine me , my Lord
Examine me O Lord,
Test me and try me
See whether there's anything in me
that grieves Your heart
Any doing of me acted in selfishness
Instead of love and kindness
Is there a dark part in my heart
that I wouldn't allow Your love to reach
Or any doubts in my mind
that wouldn't allign with my faith
Help me to see me as You see me in Your righteousness
Pardon me in Your mercy, if I have ever offended You in my pride
Cleanse my heart and mind
So that I'd be worthy to be calledYour follower
Chaste me then and there
When I act out of love and in disobedience
And do not ever let me be the hypocrite
whose talk rarely match the walk.
I ask You my Lord in sure earnesty
to live a life that always please You
with no tinge of darkness to overshadow
the Light You desire to shine through me.

Let my Mouth be Filled with Your Praises
O God, You are my God
You are worthy of my praises
All day and night
Who am I to come before Your presence
Yet You delight when I come
You hear my prayers from heaven
Even the silent and groaning ones
Like a father that pitieth His children in trouble
You heeds to my cry and always come to my rescue
And like a father who acts in tough love
You at times says no to my request
or say "wait " for my ownsake.
But there is no time you've refused to hear me
nor let me abandoned with no help.
"Do not fear!....Have faith," You say to me again and again
And I cry, " Increase my faith, so I'll believe more and fear less."
What a blessing to have come to worship a loving God like You
A holy and merciful One with all power and glory
Though I'm not worthy to come into Your presence
In Your love, You've called me to be Your own
And sent Your Son to redeem me and show the way to You
I thank and praise You my God forever
Let my mouth be filled with Your praises day and night
Help me to walk in Your ways with love in my heart
And guard me from the pitfalls of falsehood and pride.
