O Lord, our Good Shepherd,
You are the source of all true and lasting joy.
We praise You for Your power which is beyond compare.
We worship You for Your wisdom which is beyond understanding. You can meet all our needs. You restore the broken-hearted and heal the wounded. You have revealed Yourself to Your people and are building Your church, against which the gates of hell can not prevail. How great You are!
