GOD'S GLORY AND PROTECTION

He gives ear to our words as He considers our thoughts.
He hearkens unto the voice of our cry.
Our prayer is directed to Him as we seek his face,
Expecting his answer because we know He hears every sigh.

We can come into his house, in the multitude of his mercy,
And worship in 'awe' towards the King of all Kings.
He will lead us in righteousness and make our paths straight.
Our hearts can rejoice as His praises we sing.

Let all, that put their trust in Him, rejoice in his sight.
Let them shout for joy. God defends from his holy hill.
Be joyful in the Lord as he compasses those he loves
With favor. In honor, will he protect as with a shield.

"Call upon the Lord ... He is worthy to be praised."
"Let the God of our salvation be exalted and lifted high."
