Bible Reading
Sing praises to the LORD, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name. For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning. (Psalm 30:4-5 ESV)
Hymn ELH 596 Praise to Thee and Adoration
Praise to Thee and adoration,
Blessed Jesus, Son of God,
Who, to serve Thine own creation,
Didst partake of flesh and blood.
Teach me that I never may
From Thy fold or pastures stray,
But with zeal and joy exceeding
Follow where Thy steps are leading.
Let me never, Lord, forsake Thee,
E’en though bitter pain and strife
On my way shall overtake me;
But may I through all my life
Walk in fervent love to Thee,
In all woes for comfort flee
To Thy birth, Thy death, and passion;
Till I see Thy full salvation.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus, to be my Savior. You turn my sorrow over my sins to joy with the forgiveness, earned by Your Son. In His name I pray. Amen.
