Psalm 148 Prayed

Psalm 148 Prayed
Let all creation praise our Creator, Jesus

   We praise you, Lord Jesus.

   The heavens praise you,
              the heights above praise you.
   All your angels praise you,
              all your heavenly hosts praise you.
   The sun and moon praise you,
              all the shining stars praise you
   The highest heavens praise you
              The waters above the skies praise you.
   They all praise the name of the Lord Jesus
              for you commanded and they were created.
   You set them in place for ever and ever;
              you gave a decree that will never pass away.
   For by you all things were created:
              things in heaven and on earth, visible and
              invisible,
   whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities;
              all things were created by you and for you.
   For you are before all things, and in you all things
              hold together. 
           And you are the head of the body, the church.
    You are the beginning and the firstborn from
               among the dead,
              so that in everything you might have the
              supremacy.
   For your Father was pleased to have all his
               fullness dwell in you, Lord Jesus,
   and through you to reconcile to himself all things,
              whether things on earth or things in heaven,
   by making peace through your blood,
              shed on the cross.

   Let all everything on earth praise you, Lord Jesus:

    The great sea creatures
              and all ocean depths,
   lightning and hail, snow and clouds,
              stormy winds that do your bidding,
   The mountains and all hills,
              fruit trees and all cedars,
   wild animals and all cattle,
              small creatures and flying birds,
   the governments of the earth and all nations,
              all presidents and all rulers on earth,
   young men and maidens,
              old men and children.

   Let them praise the name of the Lord Jesus,
              for your name alone is exalted;
              your splendour is above the earth and the
              heavens.
   Let every creature in heaven and on earth
              and under the earth and on the sea,
              and all that is in them sing:
   “To him who sits on the throne
              and to the Lamb
   be praise and honour and glory and power,
              for ever and ever!”

   Raise up strength and power for your people;
              the praise of all your saints,
              of the Church, the people close to you heart.

               May we all praise the Lord Jesus.



Psalm 148


1   Praise the LORD.

     Praise the LORD from the heavens,
              praise him in the heights above.
2   Praise him, all his angels,
              praise him, all his heavenly hosts.
3   Praise him, sun and moon,
              praise him, all you shining stars.
4   Praise him, you highest heavens
              and you waters above the skies.
5   Let them praise the name of the LORD,
              for he commanded and they were created.
6   He set them in place for ever and ever;
              he gave a decree that will never pass
              away.
Col. 1:16 For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him.  17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.  18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.  19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him,  20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

7   Praise the LORD from the earth,
              you great sea creatures and all ocean
              depths,
8   lightning and hail, snow and clouds,
              stormy winds that do his bidding,
9   you mountains and all hills,
              fruit trees and all cedars,
10   wild animals and all cattle,
              small creatures and flying birds,
11   kings of the earth and all nations,
              you princes and all rulers on earth,
12   young men and maidens,
              old men and children.

13   Let them praise the name of the LORD,
              for his name alone is exalted;
              his splendour is above the earth and the heavens.
Rev. 5:13  Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honour and glory and power, for ever and ever!”

14   He has raised up for his people a horn,
              the praise of all his saints,
              of Israel, the people close to his heart.

              Praise the LORD.
