Glory to God Alone
1Not to us, Yahweh, not to us,
but to Your name give glory
because of Your faithful love, because of Your truth. Ezk 36:22; Dn 9:18-19
2Why should the nations say,
“Where is their God? ” Ps 42:3,10; 79:10
3Our God is in heaven
and does whatever He pleases. Ps 135:6; Dn 4:35
4Their idols are silver and gold,
made by human hands. 2Kg 19:18; Is 37:19
5They have mouths but cannot speak,
eyes, but cannot see.
6They have ears but cannot hear,
noses, but cannot smell. Is 46:7
7They have hands but cannot feel,
feet, but cannot walk. Jr 10:5
They cannot make a sound with their throats. Hab 2:18
8Those who make them are Or May those who make them become just like them,
as are all who trust in them. Ps 135:15-18
He is their help and shield. Gn 15:1; Dt 33:29; Ps 3:3; 5:12; 18:2; 28:7; 33:20; 119:114
He is their help and shield. Ps 33:20
He is their help and shield.
12The Lord remembers us and will bless us.
He will bless the house of Israel;
He will bless the house of Aaron; Ps 98:3
13He will bless those who fear the Lord —
small and great alike. Rv 11:18; 19:5
14May the Lord add to your numbers,
both yours and your children’s. Dt 1:11
15May you be blessed by the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth. Ps 121:2; 124:8; 134:3
but the earth He has given to the human race. Ps 89:11
17It is not the dead who praise the Lord,
nor any of those descending into the silence of death. Ps 6:5; 31:17; 88:10-12
18But we will praise the Lord,
both now and forever. Ps 113:2; Dn 2:20
Hallelujah!
