Father, we offer today a prayer of praise, grateful for mercy and grace that sustains our hope in the midst of every circumstance.  We praise you that you reign above and that you keep your court below; we praise you as the holy God of love; we praise you for your greatness; we praise you for your provision; we praise you for your incomparable power and eternal love.  So let us celebrate!  Let us join with every creature to sing your glory as our Maker, the great I AM adored in heaven above and on earth below.  Then may our adoration be acceptable, as with every breath, we praise your amazing, awesome name.  All praise to the Lord God Almighty!  Amen.
