Holy Lord, I worship and glorify You. It is only by Your Grace that my sins have been forgiven. I kneel before You in humble adoration and thankfulness. Thank you that you gave me freedom from death and fear. I pray that all come to know the mercy of Your love and the peace of Your salvation before the last day when You will come in all of Your Glory. At that time, every knee, even those who have rejected You, will bow to acknowledge that You are Lord of all. Amen
