All Praise and Thanks to God

All praise and thanks to God the Father now be given;
The Son and Him Who reigns with Them in highest Heaven;
The one eternal God, whom earth and Heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now, and shall be evermore.

The words above are the third verse to the hymn, Now Thank We All Our God, by Martin Rinkart. We sing this verse at church each Sunday morning as the offering is received. I just started teaching the words to Caleb this week, so he could sing along in church. Well, sing along he certainly did, loudly and with enthusiasm, bringing tears to a few eyes and smiles to many faces. What a joy it is to see him worship the Lord together with the body of Christ!
