Just something I wrote tonight

It doesn't rhyme and it probably doesn't even follow a form learned in English class, but here is a poem I wrote tonight.  I hope it encourages you.
 
 
 
Sing praises to the Lord almighty!
Lift your voices high to the Heavens!
Singing praises to His holy name!
 If silent we remain
Then the rocks would commence to sing out his praise!
Jesus Christ the Lord of all things
His name shall be praised!
 
How amazing is our God!
Let all the earth sing!
From the mountain tops we shout His name!
From the valley low do we cry out!
And from Heaven He hears our cry
From His thrown He meets us where we are!
 
He responds to us and answers our prayers!
How great is His love for us!
He always does what is right!
 
 Who are we that God should hear from Heaven?
Who are we that He should hear our prayer?
Yet hear He does
And answer according to what is best for us!
 
With little understanding we look to Him
The one who knows all there is to know
And in a gentle voice He reminds us
 “My child” He says
          “Don’t worry about all this.
It’ll all work out in the end.
          All for you’re good dear one
and for the glory of my name.
          That is a promise upon which you can count!
 I love you more than words can say!
I love you so much that I went to the greatest lengths
To demonstrate to you my love!
For you my loves I gave my life!
For you my loves I give new life!”
 
Sing praise to the Lord all His children!
Sing Hallelujah all who have been given new life!
Worship the Lord and sing His praise!
