Praise Him, Praise Him

Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer!
Sing, O Earth, His wonderful love proclaim!
Hail Him! hail Him! highest archangels in glory;
Strength and honor give to His holy Name!
Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard His children,
In His arms He carries them all day long:

Praise Him! Praise Him!
Tell of His excellent greatness.
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Ever in joyful song!

Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer!
For our sins He suffered, and bled, and died.
He our Rock, our hope of eternal salvation,
Hail Him! hail Him! Jesus the Crucified.
Sound His praises! Jesus who bore our sorrows,
Love unbounded, wonderful, deep and strong.

Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer!
Heav’nly portals loud with hosannas ring!
Jesus, Savior, reigneth forever and ever.
Crown Him! Crown Him! Prophet, and Priest, and King!
Christ is coming! over the world victorious,
Pow’r and glory unto the Lord belong.

God is so good! It has been a very, very long week, but God has been faithful even so. I think I have finally learned my lesson; people and sleep are of greater importance than homework. It has taken me a long time to learn it, but I have begun to understand this very fact. I do not claim to have it entirely learned though, it is still a difficult balance first to find and then to maintain.

Once again I am rejoicing greatly! For more than one reason. Perhaps one of the greatest being we in the Meal Management class have survived our first entertainment session. It is such a weight lifted from my shoulders. I still am not overly fond of that class, but I think I am finally starting to get it.

On Sunday I am going to help out in a kindergarten Sunday School class, so I am excited about that, but at the same time, a little nervous (for more than one reason) because I have not really done a whole lot of that before... and when I did it was at my church at home which contains far less people than does Placerita. I used to work in the 2's and 3's, but on a good day we would have like maybe 7 children. I want to say the average was 5. The class (and church) has grown since then, but I am never (that is an exaggeration, but it sure seems like it is not) home anymore so I am not sure what they average now.

Well, I think I am going to go now. I am going to go to bed!!! :o) I am so tired! I have been looking forward to this night all week!

Goodnight all!!! Sleep well!!! Do not stay up too late ;o)
