Ever Thankful for You, Oh Lord!
Thank you, that I dwell in the shelter of You, God Most High and I find perfect rest in the shadow of your protection, Almighty God!
Thank you, LORD, that You, alone are my refuge, my peace, my fortress, and place of safety! You are my God, and I trust in You!
I give You all praise and honor because You, Oh LORD, watch over me and rescue me from every trap. You cover me with your feathers because You are compassionate and You shelter me with your wings because You are strong. When I draw close to You, I have a refuge in the truth of your faithfulness, which is my amour and protection against all that would come against me.
Thank you, God, that I do not have to be afraid of the arrows that fly against me in the day, the terrors that may lurk around me in the night, nor any diseases that may come my way. Though thousands fall around me, I am safe with You, because You, Oh Lord, are faithful and I give thanks to You!
Thank you, LORD, that You, protect me and my family. Help me Lord, to see and sense your presence when I am weary and afraid. Help me to trust in your guidance and lean on You, in greater ways every day. You are my dwelling place, Oh Lord Most High, no evil can come near my soul, and you keep plagues and disasters away.
I praise You, Lord, for sending your angels to protect me and lift me up when I stumble on the stones of life. I can walk in the most threatening of places and trample all foes and problems beneath my feet because You are with me. I love You, Lord, and I trust in your Name.
Thank you, Lord, that You come when I need You, and will rescue and protect me. Thank you, Lord, for I know, You, will answer me when I pray, and are with me in all my troubles. Thank you, Lord for the life You give me now, and for the eternal life You will give me forever. I am ever grateful that my soul will always be satisfied with You and all that You give me. My heart delights and rejoices in my salvation and I am ever thankful for You, Oh Lord. Amen.
