Praise Belongs to You

Praise belongs to you, Lord,

Mighty God, 

Transcendent,

Righteous, 

Merciful, 

and Just.

I praise you for being a mighty fortress,

a kind, forgiving Father, 

a gentle, nursing mother,

a friend,

a king,

a warrior,

a shepherd,

a rose of Sharon,

a morning star,

a sun, and shield, a shelter,

all that I need, and all I aspire to be.

Amen.
