Morning Prayer LSB 235 Psalm 111 Praise ye the Lord! Praise Him with exultation; Praise Him in the congregation. With grateful heart I thank Him for His goodness In the assembly of the righteous. All the works of God are good and right, Sought by all who in them find delight. All His deeds let us praise; Ever righteous are His ways. The Lord recalls His covenant forever; All His wonders are remembered. The Lord is ever merciful and gracious; His great love will not forsake us. Food He gives from His almighty hand; He to Israel grants a promised land. In His words still we trust; All His deeds are good and just. Heinrich Schütz
All God's decrees are steadfast and abiding, Uprightness and truth providing. He made His covenant to last forever; His salvation fails us never. Holy is the awesome name of God. Wisdom starts in reverence for the Lord; Fear His name and be wise; Let His praise forever rise. Office Hymn 403 O Savior of Our Fallen Race The children s choir sings stanzas 1 and 6.

He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog,* and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God.* Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the LORD. Blessèd is the man who makes the LORD his trust,* who does not turn to the proud, to those who go astray af- ter a lie! You have multiplied, O LORD my God, your wondrous deeds and your thoughts toward us; none can com- pare with you!* I will proclaim and tell of them, yet they are more than can be told. Glory be to the Father and to the Son* and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the be- ginning,* is now, and will be forever. Amen.
