Psalm
111 Prayed
Praising Jesus for the Bible
Praise the Lord Jesus.
I will extol you, Lord Jesus,
with all my heart
in
the council of the upright
and
in the assembly of my church.
Great are your works, O Lord
Jesus;
they
are pondered by all who delight in them.
Glorious and majestic are your
deeds,
and
your righteousness endures forever.
In the Scriptures, you have
caused your wonders to
be
remembered.
You
are gracious and compassionate.
You provide food for those who fear you;
you
remember your covenant forever.
You have shown your people the
power of your
works,
giving
us the lands of other nations,
as we go and make disciples of
all nations,
baptising
them in the name
of
the Father and of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit,
and teaching them to obey
everything
you have commanded us.
The works of your hands are
faithful and just;
all
your precepts in the Bible are trustworthy.
They are steadfast for ever and
ever,
done
in faithfulness and uprightness.
You provided redemption for
your people;
You ordained your covenant
forever—
holy
and awesome is your name.
For once we were separate from
you,
excluded
from citizenship in Israel
and
foreigners to the covenants of promise
without hope
and
without God in the world.
But now in you, all of us, who
were far away,
have
been brought near by your blood.
Because in you we have
redemption through your
blood,
the
forgiveness of sins,
in accordance with the riches
of God’s grace,
that
he lavished on us with all wisdom and
understanding.
For in the Bible we have the
word of the prophets
made more certain,
and
we do well to pay attention to it
as
to a light shining in a dark place,
because the Word of God came to them,
and
the Scripture cannot be broken.
Fear and respect for you, Lord
Jesus, is the
beginning
of wisdom;
all
who follow your precepts in the Bible
have
good understanding.
