Thank God! - Psalm 116

Worship God for who he is and what he has done.


I Love the Lord, Who Has Heard My Prayer.


Psalm 116:1-4 I love the LORD because he hears my voice and my prayer for mercy. 2 Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath! 3 Death wrapped its ropes around me; the terrors of the grave overtook me. I saw only trouble and sorrow. 4 Then I called on the name of the LORD: "Please, LORD, save me!"

The Lord Deals Bountifully with His Own.


Psalm 116:5-7 How kind the LORD is! How good he is! So merciful, this God of ours! 6 The LORD protects those of childlike faith; I was facing death, and he saved me. 7 Let my soul be at rest again, for the LORD has been good to me.

You Delivered My Soul from Death.


Psalm 116:8-11 He has saved me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. 9 And so I walk in the LORD's presence as I live here on earth! 10 I believed in you, so I said, "I am deeply troubled, LORD." 11 In my anxiety I cried out to you, "These people are all liars!"

How Shall I Show My Thanks to Him?


Psalm 116:12-19 What can I offer the LORD for all he has done for me? 

13 I will lift up the cup of salvation and praise the LORD's name for saving me. 

14 I will keep my promises to the LORD in the presence of all his people. 15 The LORD cares deeply when his loved ones die. 16 O LORD, I am your servant; yes, I am your servant, born into your household; you have freed me from my chains. 

17 I will offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD. 

18 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people- 19 in the house of the LORD in the heart of Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
