"May the LORD give you discretion and understanding when he puts you in command over Israel, so that you may keep the law of the LORD your God. Then you will have success if you are careful to observe the decrees and laws that the LORD gave Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged." (1 Chronicles 22:12-13)
"Now devote your heart and soul to seeking the LORD your God." (1 Chronicles 22:19)
"Morning Worship," a hymn by Barney E. Warren, based on 1 Chronicles 23:30: "They were also to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD. They were to do the same in the evening." Click here to hear the tune.
- In the dawning of the morning,
How our hearts with praises swell,
When we think of God’s great goodness,
Which we here with rapture tell.
Oh, we love Him and adore Him—
Worship Him in song and prayer—
As we humbly wait before Him,
We His righteousness declare.- Refrain:
Oh, praise the Lord for His grace and truth,
For the peace we have today,
For the light that gleams like morning beams,
All along the holy way!
- Refrain:
- As the silent shades of darkness
Lift their veil from o’er the skies,
See the orb of day, refulgent
In His glowing splendor, rise.
So our night of sin is over,
Past are all our mourning days:
For the light of full salvation,
Lord, accept our grateful praise. - Start the wave of music rolling
On the softly floating breeze;
Join the feathered songsters’ warble,
As they sing among the trees.
Wake the song of inspiration,
Ere we cross the vale of death;
Laud His name in all creation,
Every creature having breath.
