Our Father,

You deserve our praise and we do not praise you enough.

We praise your name daily. We praise you in our closets, we praise you in our churches. We praise you through singing and through the piano and organ, through guitars and brass, strings and drums. We praise you for your mighty deeds and for your mercy and salvation through your Son Jesus.

Yet we do not praise you enough for all of the blessings that you have given us and this nation. We call on all of our people in this nation under God to praise your name once more. Let your name be praised, O Lord, from the west to the east and from the north to the south and back again. Praise you name in time and for all eternity.

In Jesus name, Amen.
