"Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise Him, O ye servants of the LORD.... for the Lord is good.... for I know that the LORD is great.... Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did He in heaven and in earth" (Psalm 135:1-6). "There came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, saying, Where is He that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the east, and are come to worship Him.... And when they saw the young child with Mary His mother, and fell down, and worshipped Him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto Him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh" (Matthew 2:1-11).
We worship the Savior because He is good;
We praise Him for what He has done.
We give Him the glory, as rightly we should,
Exalting His name, God the Son!
We come as the wise men to worship the King,
We follow His star to the place
Where we may behold Him and joyfully bring
Thanksgiving for all of His grace.
O Lord, we would worship You now with the treasure
Of souls that You bought for a price,
Astounded to know, Lord, that it was Your pleasure
To save us through Christ's sacrifice!
