An elderly saint at a prayer meeting
was heard to pray,
“O Lord, we will praise You;
we will praise You with an instrument of ten strings!”
(People wondered what he meant).
“We will praise You with our eyes by looking only unto You.
We will exalt You with our ears by listening only to Your voice.
We will extol You with our two hands by working in Your service.
We will honour You with our own two feet by walking in the way of Your
statutes.
We will magnify You with our tongue by bearing testimony to Your loving
kindness.
We will worship You with our heart by loving only You.
We thank You for this instrument, Lord; keep it in tune.
Play upon it as You will and ring out the melodies of Your grace!
