Song of Glory

Leader: Like a youth', His hair in locks unfurls; Its black tresses flowing in curls. Cong: Jerusalem, His splendor, is the dwelling place of right; may He prize it as His highest delight. Leader: Like a crown in His hand may His treasured people be, a turban of beauty and of majesty. Cong: He bore them, carried them, with a crown He adorned them. They were precious in His sight, and He honored them. Leader: His glory is on me; my glory is on Him. He is near to me when I call to Him. Cong: He is bright and rosy; red will be His dress, when He comes from Edom, treading the winepress. Leader: He showed the tefillin-knot to Moses, humble, wise, when the LORD's likeness was before his eyes. Cong: He delights in His people; the humble He does raise — He glories in them; He sits enthroned upon their praise. Leader: Your first word, Your call to every age, is true: O seek the people who seek You. Cong: My many songs please take and hear and may my hymn of joy to You come near. Leader: May my praise be a crown for Your head, and like incense before You, the prayers I have said. Cong: May a poor man's song be precious in Your eyes, like a song sung over sacrifice. Leader: To the One who sustains all, may my blessing take flight: Creator, Life-Giver, God of right and might. Cong: And when I offer blessing, to me Your head incline: accepting it as spice, fragrant and fine. Leader: May my prayer be to You sweet song. For You my soul will always long. The Ark is closed. Yours, LORD, are the greatness and the power, the glory, 1 Chr. 29 the majesty and splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is Yours. Yours, Lor», is the kingdom; You are exalted as Head over all. » Who can tell of the mighty acts of the LORD Ps. 106 and make all His praise be heard? iiameoericneelitiah Caged)
