GIVING THANKS TO GOD (6)
From Psalm 138
God, our Father, we thank you with all our hearts and sing to you our songs and hymns; we bow before you in worship, and we praise you, because you have loved us and shown yourself faithful. Your word is mighty like your name and, when we call to you, you answer our prayer and give us the strength we need.
Though you are very high, you care for the lowly, and the proud cannot hide from you; when we are surrounded by troubles you keep us safe.
Father, your love is eternal: complete in us the work you have begun; through Jesus our redeemer. Amen.

God our Father,
gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in mercy:
we thank you that you keep your promises,
and love all that you have made;
you uphold those who fall,
and lift up those who are bowed low;
you open your hand
and satisfy the desires of your people
who fear you,
you hear our cry and save us.
Therefore we proclaim your goodness:
let every creature praise your holy name,
for ever and ever. Amen.

and your ear ready to hear;

that your word will not depart from us,
nor from our children,
nor from their children
from this time on for ever. Amen.
