Hymn: Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Psalm 113:1 “Praise the Lord! Praise, O servant of the Lord, praise the name of the Lord!”
Praise is our Lord’s most righteous due; for all that He has done for us, provided for us and enables us to do. Plus, we are commanded to praise Him! We are to offer a sacrifice of praise, not because it is hard to do, but because we are offering Him our very best expression of thankfulness and love.
Fanny Crosby, born in 1820, became one of the most prolific hymnists in history, writing more than 8,000 hymns and gospel songs. In spite of being blind since shortly after birth, she dedicated her life to the mission of teaching God’s love, grace and mercy and giving Him praise in every circumstance of life. In 1869 she published “Praise Him! Praise Him!”, encouraging believers and evoking praise from the very depths of their hearts:
“Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus our blessed redeemer. Sing, O earth, His wonderful love proclaim!”
Won’t you seize the moment today to proclaim your praise to God, no matter what you are going through! Praise Him! Tell of His excellent greatness! It just might change your whole attitude for the day!
