The Awe-Inspiring God

Lord, the heavens praise Your wonders—
Your faithfulness also—
in the assembly of the holy ones.
For who in the skies can compare with the Lord?
Who among the heavenly beings is like the Lord?
God is greatly feared in the council of the holy ones,
more awe-inspiring than all who surround Him.

Lord God of Hosts,
who is strong like You, Lord?
Your faithfulness surrounds You.
You rule the raging sea;
when its waves surge, You still them.
You crushed Rahab like one who is slain;
You scattered Your enemies with Your powerful arm.
The heavens are Yours; the earth also is Yours.
The world and everything in it—You founded them.
North and south—You created them.

Tabor and Hermon shout for joy at Your name.
You have a mighty arm;
Your hand is powerful;
Your right hand is lifted high.

Righteousness and justice are the foundation
of Your throne;
faithful love and truth go before You.
Happy are the people who know the joyful shout;
(Psalm 89:5-15 HCSB ©®)

Thank You for making us Your people, Lord!
