Good morning from a mild and windy SCC.

Bible reading: 

John 14:15-21, The Promise of the Holy Spirit

Hymn 365

1. Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation!

O my soul, praise him, for he is thy health and salvation!

All ye who hear

Now to his temple draw near,

Joining in glad adoration.

2. Praise to the Lord, who o’er all things so wondrously reigneth,

Shieldeth thee gently from harm, or when fainting sustaineth;

Hast thou not seen

How thy hearts wishes have been

Granted in what he ordaineth?

3. Praise to the Lord who doth prosper thy work and defend thee,

Surely his goodness and mercy shall daily attend thee;

Ponder anew

What the Almighty can do,

Who with his love doth befriend thee.

4. Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore him!

All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before him!

Let the Amen

Sound from his people again:

Gladly for aye we adore him.
