105th Psalm (Sing a Psalm)

Give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name,Spread the seeds of His deeds, ignite the holy flame.Tell all the peoples what wonders He's performed,In His name we rejoice, by His grace we're transformed. Praise His holy name, let the heart feel lighter,Sing of His miracles, His acts to inspire.Seek the Lord and His strength, find joy in the journey,Remember His wonders, His judgments so worthy. Offspring of Abraham, His servant so bold,Jacob’s descendants, part of the fold.Chosen and cherished, a covenant stated,Through ages preserved, forever celebrated. He remembers His promise, everlasting, profound,To Abraham’s seed, where blessings abound.A pact made in faith, as vast as the skies,To his descendants, a land where their hope lies. When they were but few, and wanderers all,From nation to nation, they’d heed the call.No one to oppress them, He commanded a plea,“Touch not my anointed, harm not my decree.” He called down a famine, tested their frames,Sent Joseph ahead, sold to break chains.His feet in shackles, his life in the pit,Till what he foretold by wisdom did fit. Then unto Egypt, sent by a king,Joseph’s insight a saving thing.Made lord of his house, ruler of lands,Pharaoh’s own scepter placed in his hands. Israel also came to Egypt then,Jacob sojourned in Ham’s den.God made His people exceedingly fruitful,In the midst of their foes, He made them fruitful. He turned their hearts to hate His kin,To deal with his servants with a cunning grin.But Moses His servant, Aaron to command,Brought signs from above with a strong hand. Darkness and light, frogs on the rise,Plagues strike Egypt to no surprise.He spoke, locusts swarmed, hailstones as bread,Pharaoh’s heart stubborn, his spirit misled. Brought out with silver and gold in their hands,Among their tribes, not one did stand.Egypt was glad when they departed,For fear of them had left them brokenhearted. Spread a cloud to cover, fire to light the night,Opened rocks in the desert, waters did fight.From heavenly bread to quenching deep thirst,In desolation, His care was dispersed. He led them with a secure hand,Through feared lands, to the promised land.Nations He conquered, inheritance measured,That they might observe His statutes, treasured. For He remembered His sacred promise,And Abraham His trusted novice.So He brought forth His people with joy,And his chosen ones with gladness, He did not toy! (Verse 15)Give thanks unto His holy Name,We His wonders should boldly proclaim.Glory in His righteous plea,And let your heart live happily. (Verse 16)Israel, remember His works and might,Keep His laws, hold them tight.He’s our God, our narratives long,In the just path, He keeps us strong. (Verse 17)Every story, every trace,Fuels our faith, gives us grace.God of our Fathers, leader of bands,We follow your statutes, embrace your commands. (Verse 18)So here we stand, a testament true,Living the promise, in all we do.His word keeps us close, His love keeps us called,For in His embrace, we’re never appalled. (Verse 19)Through deserts and waters, highs and the lows,His presence a constant, it eternally glows.Our heritage rich from Abraham’s days,A journey of faith, in such wondrous ways. (Verse 20)Celebrate, chant, let's give Him praise,Walk His paths, follow His ways.So let's lift our voices, make it worldwide,In His promises, forever we abide. [End] [End]
