Psalm 24 - Psalms of Steel by Robert Dean Steel


Psalm 24 of the Psalms of Steel
By Robert Dean Steel

The Lord bestows His favor upon His people,
The Lord delights and takes great pleasure in His saints.
As His children we have His favor and and regards.
Rejoice and give thanks for His kind acts.
Not once did we deserve His love and mercy.

The Lord`s love is universal and spontaneous,
His gives His redemptive gifts freely and joyfully.
The character of God is one  of love, mercy, grace
long suffering, gentleness, kindness and peace.
His judgment is for a moment but His mercy lasts for eternity.

We can never repay the debt of love we owe.
We can never do enough deeds or acts of kindness,
To settle the debt of sin we have accumulated.
This gift of salvation has come at a great price,
The Lord Himself paid it.  He died so we can live.

O give thanks to the Lord, all the people of God.
Clap your hands, lift your voice and sing praise.
Rejoice with the dance and with shouts.
Praise Him on the instruments.
With the trumpet, cymbals, strings and wind instruments.
Give thanks, let all say, Praise the Lord.
