Analysis of A Song of Praise
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
You will say in that day,
Giving thanks to the Lord;
His wrath to turn away,
And be in one accord.
God is your salvation,
Putting your faith and trust;
Building a foundation,
For blocking any lust.
God is your strength and song,
You will not be afraid;
Your faith and trust is strong,
As He renders you aid.
With joy you draw water,
From the salvation well;
To nourish your daughter,
And your son where you dwell.
In that day you will say,
Give thanks unto the Lord;
As you trust and obey,
For His name is adored.
You make known of His deeds,
To the people proclaim;
He caters to their needs,
As you exalt His name.
Sing praises to the Lord,
For all that He has done;
His anointing has poured,
To be a holy one.
Let all know on the earth,
To shout and sing for joy;
Of all His priceless worth,
Be the holy envoy.
