My Doxology

Yes, I will praise God from whom all blessings flow 
and by whose strength my every song is sung.  

And yes, I think there’s nothing wrong 
with letting my convictions show 
or testifying to the things I know.  

And yes, I’ll sing, and though I’ve learned 
the lesson long ago that God is (always) singing 
greater songs than I will ever sing, 

I will no less keep singing 
to the music God has given me 
and by the truest notes I know,

and with a voice as providence bestows
I’ll raise my earthly spirit up to heaven
as loudly as the wind allows, 

And yes, I will praise God from whom all blessings flow!
