Lift up your hands to the Lord

In Psalm 63, the psalmist David started with a cry out to the Lord, that his body was thirsty for His glory.  His Power and Love were better than life itself.

In verse 4, the psalmist praised God for as long as he lived, lifting up his hands in prayer.  In different versions of the Holy Bible, most versions point out the simple act of lifting up our hands in Heaven, lifting them up to the Lord.

Reminds me of this song:


I remember this song even back when I was in college, in the early 1990's.

The rest of the psalm is filled with praising the Lord, that His Love is better than the richest feast we can imagine.  Even though there are evil doers who plot against us, they will die and be thrown down into the depths of the earth.

Always remember that we need the Lord, no matter our circumstances.  Thank and praise Him, in good times and bad.
