"Oh sing to the Lord a new song,
for he has done marvelous things!
His right hand and his holy arm
have worked salvation for him.
The Lord has made known his salvation;
he has revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations.
He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulness
to the house of Israel.
All the ends of the earth have seen
the salvation of our God." (Psalm 98)
Although I like to sing, I rarely think about singing to the Lord when I am thankful for what He has done. I sometimes remember to thank Him, but I rarely think about singing to the Lord other than in church.
I once hear somebody say that "a new song" in not necessarily literally a new song, but a song sung out of a new experience of God's goodness and greatness. Which I think can happen every day.
Today, I really praise God for the improvement in my baby's night sleep, and for how wonderfully He has made him, his physical appearance, and his personality, and how He has watched over him and over us ever since the baby was conceived. He really is fearfully and wonderfully made, and seeing him has given me a new appreciation for God's creative power and design. I am also thankful for how He has grown and matured my marriage, and that He keeps working in us, to change and mold us so that our marriage would mirror His relationship with the church.
Therefore, I will sing this "new" song today..
"I sing the mighty power of God, that made the mountains rise
That spread the lofty seas abroad, and built the lofty skies
I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day;
The moon shines full at God's command, and all the stars obey.
for he has done marvelous things!
His right hand and his holy arm
have worked salvation for him.
The Lord has made known his salvation;
he has revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations.
He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulness
to the house of Israel.
All the ends of the earth have seen
the salvation of our God." (Psalm 98)

I sing the goodness of the Lord, who filled the earth with food,
Who formed the creatures through the Word, and then pronounced them good.
Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed, where’er I turn my eye,
If I survey the ground I tread, or gaze upon the sky.

Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed, where’er I turn my eye,
If I survey the ground I tread, or gaze upon the sky.
There’s not a plant or flower below, but makes Thy glories known,
And clouds arise, and tempests blow, by order from Thy throne;
While all that borrows life from Thee is ever in Thy care;
And everywhere that we can be, Thou, God art present there"
