My lips praise You in the constancy of adoration. Let my prayers be endless. Sweetly and freely from my heart, the tendril of vaporous incense flows. From the abundance of my soul not constrained by vanity or selfish motives, my love for You grows stronger in faith. The dance between prayer and praise is soft and tender as I magnify and adore the riches of Your grace. At the sound of Your Name, mighty rivers roar. Blessed Savior rule, reign, and live in my heart. Only You can touch me with Your Spirit. Hope is wrapped up in Your glory. Let the blessedness of the Lord be that which we give thanks for. By Your blood, we have been redeemed. Heart, soul, and body belong to You, Lord. What You have claimed will not be forfeited. Where I have been blind, You have given me sight. Where I have been imprisoned, You have given me freedom. Give me ears to hear the festal shout. Grant me wisdom to understand truth. Influence me by the totality of the Spirit. Mark my steps so that I daily walk in the light. My desire is to live in the expectation of Your divine will. Under the glorious truth in Your Word set down in 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 and the authority of Christ, I bow in humble prayer.
May our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who loved us and by His grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.
2 Thessalonians 2:16-17, NIV

Hope is wrapped up in Your glory. Let the blessedness of the Lord be that which we give thanks for–Amen!
