Christian Poetry - A poem about Praising Jesus

"Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye servants of the LORD."~Psalm 135:1

"By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name."~Hebrews 13:15


"In Between Praises”

In between praises where do you go
Does your mind start wondering to and fro
Do you find you are lacking the strength of will
To let God take over while you learn to be still

Do you find yourself doing what you should not do
Does a dark cloud seem to hover over you
Do you tend to worry, do you live with fear
Does your heart start doubting that the Lord is near

In between praises what do you see
Do you seem to lose sight of Calvary
Do you see the splinter in your brother’s eye
Do you see a need and simply walk on by

Then perhaps my friend, what your heart should do
Is continue praising the whole day through
Fill your day with praise fill your night with song
And continue praising Him when things go wrong

Don’t allow a time in your day, my friend
When your songs and praises would reach their end
Raise your voice in worship, bend your knees and pray
Let your heart praise God the entire day
