Praise and Pleasure

Read:  Psalm 147 / Proverbs 26 / Deuteronomy 10 / Rev. 4

Psalm 147:11 The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
Proverbs 26:2 The curse causeless shall not come.
Deuteronomy 10:12,21 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul... He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

How wonderful it is to know
That God takes pleasure in His own!
To save us from the curse's blow,
He left the splendor of His throne. 

He is our Praise and highest Pleasure, 
Who has accomplished our salvation!
He is our Hero and our Treasure,
The awesome Lord of all creation!
