Scripture instructs me to sing praise,
To shout praise, to continually praise
God as a pleasing sacrifice to Him.
But often I don't feel like praising.
When I'm weary,
When I'm in despair,
When I'm busy and distracted I'm
Not in a praiseworthy mood at all.
But if I choose to praise God despite
How I feel, I find that eventually I am
Praising Him, not out of duty, but from
A grateful heart.
Psalm 9:11
Psalm 67:3
Hebrews 13:15
