Sunday Praise

I will also praise You with a harp,Even Your truth, O my God;To You I will sing praises with the lyre,O Holy One of Israel.My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to You;And my soul, which You have redeemed. – Psalm 71:22-23, NASB

Therefore the LORD longs to be gracious to you,And therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you.For the LORD is a God of justice;How blessed are all those who long for Him. – Isaiah 30:18 (NASB)
