XV. Rev. 15:3. “Great and marvellous are Thy works, LORD GOD ALMIGHTY”
1. This is called the song of Moses and of the Lamb.
It is sung by the redeemed in heaven.
It is a song of praise to GOD—
For His works in creation.
For His works of grace.
For His holiness.
For His justice.
2. We hope to join in that song one day there.
We must therefore learn it now here.
Thankfulness is a duty.
Praise is a most important form of prayer, which we dare not neglect.
3. We, too, thank GOD for creation, preservation, and all the blessings of this life.
And, above all, we thank Him for the gifts of grace and hope of glory offered us through our LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Resolutions.—To strive after a thankful heart.
To make good use of the great Thanksgiving Service of the Church.
Text.—“Praise Him in His noble acts.”
