THE SONG OF THE

THREE YOUNG MEN

There in the furnace the three young men again started singing together in praise of God:

“We praise you, O Lord, the God of our ancestors.

May your glorious, holy name

be held in honour and reverence for ever.

May hymns be sung to your glory for ever

and may your holy presence be praised in that temple,

where you sit on your heavenly throne

above the winged creatures

and look down to the world of the dead.

May you be praised and honoured for ever.

May you be praised as you sit on your royal throne.

May hymns be sung to your glory forever.

May you be praised in the dome of the heavens.

May hymns be sung to your glory forever.

and saved us from the fire.

Give thanks to the Lord,

for He is good and His mercy lasts for ever.

Praise the Lord, all who worship Him;

sing praise to the God of gods and give Him thanks,

for His mercy lasts for ever.”

May the Lord bless you and take care of you. May He be kind and gracious to you. May the Lord look on you with favor and give you peace.

With love filled blessings,

Your Sister in Christ
