Analysis of Praising God
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
May God be gracious and bless,
Making His face shine on you;
Always in having access,
To the God that remains true.
Your way may be known on earth,
Saving health through the nation;
Experiencing new birth,
In being a new creation.
Let the people praise the Lord,
While the people praise you;
Never let Him be ignored,
He will help you to construe.
Let the nations sing for joy,
Has He judges righteously;
Gladness that you will deploy,
In His guidance doubtlessly.
Let the people show their praise,
Praising the Lord our God;
In honoring Him always,
Worship to honor and laud.
The earth shall yield its increase,
Shall be blessing as our own;
His righteousness will not cease,
As He sits upon His throne.
God shall bless who are righteous,
Letting the whole earth revere;
Be humbled, not contentious,
A fawner who is sincere.
