Talking Topics

"O give thanks unto the Lord; call upon His name: make known His deeds among the people. Sing unto Him, sing psalms unto Him: talk ye of all His wondrous works" (Psalm 105:1,2).

Talk of all the wondrous deeds
That God has done throughout the earth.
This is what the world needs;
You cannot overstate its worth.

How pointless are imaginations
That do not dwell on things that matter!
And certainly our conversations
Without the Lord are empty chatter.

So let us talk of what God did
And what He promised He will do.
His wondrous works have not been hid,
And all His promises are true.

Talk of marvels in creation;
You never can exhaust their store!
Talk of mercy in salvation;
Search the love of God yet more!

Surely we can well afford
To choose the topics of our talk
That call attention to Our Lord,
Our great Redeemer and our Rock!
