I will extol thee, my God, O king;
and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

Psalm 145

Extol? What’s that?

“To praise highly”

Oh. OK.

So for what shall I extol God?

For one, everything still works right this morning, as far as I can tell.

Well, continuing in Psalm 145:

The Lord is gracious,
and full of compassion;
slow to anger,
and of great mercy.

The Lord is good to all:
and his tender mercies are over all his works.

The Lord upholdeth all that fall,
and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.

The eyes of all wait upon thee;
and thou gives them their meat in due season.

The Lord is righteous in all his ways….

The Lord is nigh
unto all them that call upon him….

He will fulfil the desire of the them that fear him….

Blessed be the Lord my strength….

My goodness, and my fortress;
my high tower, and my deliverer;
my shield, and he in whom I trust….

Lord, what is man,
that takest knowledge of him!
or the son of man,
that thou makest account of him!

Send thine hand from above;
rid me, and deliver me out of great waters,
from the hand of strange children.

That our sons
may be as plants grown up in their youth;
that our daughters
may be as corner stones,
polished after the similitude of a place.

That our garners may be full,
affording all manner of store….

Happy is that people,
that is in such a case:
yea, happy is that people,
whose God is the Lord.

Psalm 144
