This litany on Thanksgiving and Praise is an adaptation from several selections from the book of Psalms. The litany was read by the members of Trinity Baptist Church on Wednesday, November 25, 2009.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving and Praise
We will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness
and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Praise the LORD!
We will give thanks to the LORD with our grateful heart,
in the company of the upright, in the congregation.
Great are the works of the LORD, studied by all who delight in them.
We will give thanks to the LORD with our grateful heart;
We will tell of all His wonderful deeds.
We will be glad and exult in the LORD;
We will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
With songs of praises We will praise your holy name;
We will give thanks to your name, O LORD, for it is good.
For You have delivered us from every trouble,
and our eye have seen what you have done for us.
We will come into your house with our words of thanksgiving;
We will pay you our vows, those vows that our lips uttered
and our mouth promised when we were in trouble.
Come and hear, all you who fear God,
and we will tell what the LORD has done for us.
Praise the LORD!
