And You reign over all.
In Your hand is power and might;
In Your hand it is to make great
And to give strength to all.
That we should be able to offer so willingly as this?
For all things come from You,
And of Your own we have given You.
As were all our fathers;
bOur days on earth are as a shadow,
And without hope.

HIS THANKSGIVING. (1Ch. 29:10-25)
Wherefore David blessed the Lord—This beautiful thanksgiving prayer was the effusion overflowing with gratitude and delight at seeing the warm and widespread interest that was now taken in forwarding the favorite project of his life. Its piety is displayed in the fervor of devotional feeling—in the ascription of all worldly wealth and greatness to God as the giver, in tracing the general readiness in contributing to the influence of His grace, in praying for the continuance of this happy disposition among the people, and in solemnly and earnestly commending the young king and his kingdom to the care and blessing of God.
