“On your feet now – applaud God!Bring a gift of laughter,sing yourselves into his presence.

Know this: God is God, and God, God.He made us; we didn’t make him.We’re his people, his well-tended sheep.

Enter with this password: “Thank you!”Make yourselves at home, talking praise.Thank him. Worship him.

For God is sheer beauty,all generous in love,loyal always and ever.
