A haiku

 

[Spoken prophecy]

Give thanks to Adonai; for he is good, for his grace continues forever.

Give thanks to the Lord—  

His love endures forever,  

Song without ending.

Give thanks to the Lord—  

His love endures forever,  

Song without ending.

O give thanks to Adonai, proclaim His name,  

His deeds among the nations boldly tell;  

Sing psalms to Him, His wondrous acts acclaim,  

Let hearts rejoice in Him who does all well.  

Seek Adonai and His strength evermore,  

Remember all His judgments and His might;  

He chose a people, opened heaven’s door,  

And made His covenant a guiding light.  

Give thanks to the Lord—  

His love endures forever,  

Song without ending.

Give thanks to the Lord—  

His love endures forever,  

Song without ending.

He guards His own from kings and foreign lands,  

Declares, “Touch not My anointed, nor harm”;  

The earth resounds with praise from sea to sands,  

The forest sings, the heavens raise alarm.  

He comes to judge the world in truth and grace,  

Let all creation bow before His face.

Give thanks to the Lord—  

His love endures forever,  

Song without ending.

Give thanks to the Lord—  

His love endures forever,  

Song without ending.

[Spoken prophecy]

But don’t forget doing good and sharing with others, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
