Exaltation and Examination

"Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do" (Exodus 6:1).  "Praise ye the LORD... the praise of all His saints... a people near unto Him. Praise ye the LORD" (Psalm 148:1,14).  "My son, give Me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe My ways" (Proverbs 23:26).  "Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?" (2 Corinthians 13:5). 

The Lord told Moses he would see
That He would do as He had spoken.
As God has said, so shall it be;
His promise never shall be broken. 

We praise the Lord who brought us near
By paying our redemption's price. 
We worship Him with holy fear  
And thank Him for His sacrifice. 

The Lord has drawn our hearts with praise
For all He's done and yet will do
As we  observe His perfect ways
And give our hearts to Him anew. 

O Savior, in Your exaltation,
We worship You and seek Your face.
We know, by self-examination,
Our faith is anchored in Your grace!
