O Lord, let my soul rise up to meet you
as the day rises to meet the sun.

Praise to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever.

Come, let us sing to the Lord : let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.

Teach us to give and not to count the cost.

Psalm 145:5-9
I will ponder the glorious splendor of your majesty : and all your marvelous works.
They shall speak of the might of your wondrous acts : and I will tell of your greatness.
They shall publish the remembrance of your great goodness : they shall sing of your righteous deeds.
The Lord is gracious and full of compassion : slow to anger and of great kindness.
The Lord is loving to everyone : and his compassion is over all his work.

Teach us to give and not count the cost.

1 Samuel 10:17-27
Acts 28:17-31
