Thanks be unto God - Charles Spurgeon

Doing the same - converting this into a new version of English

Dear Lord,

Help us to truly worship You right now. We're thankful for this moment and grateful for this sacred time. Please shut out the world's distractions. Help us forget our worries and rise above everyday concerns. Free us from worldly temptations and draw us closer to You.

We don't ask for visions or miraculous appearances, but simply to feel Jesus's presence through faith. Let us feel His presence so strongly that we rejoice as if we could see Him, loving and trusting Him with all our hearts.

Jesus Christ, we deeply love and honor You. You are our Lord. Thank You for becoming human to be close to us, for joining with us in spiritual marriage, and for saving us through Your sacrifice. You gave Your life for Your people, paying for our freedom with Your own blood.

Though You're no longer physically here, we imagine You sitting on Your heavenly throne, both human and divine, ruling over all. We join the endless chorus of praise: "Worthy is the Lamb who was sacrificed." We may be far away, but we know we're close to Your heart.

You see us beyond the angels, hearing both our praise and our struggles. We're connected to You deeply, feeling our kinship. We long to bow before You and worship You forever.

Lord, please accept our humble praise. We love You, though we wish we loved You more. Nothing on Earth compares to You. We'd live and die for You. Take our hearts and unite them with Yours - You're everything to us.

We worship the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit with all we are. We humbly bow before Your glorious presence.

Please look upon those who don't know You. Help them understand Your love. Bring hope to the hopeless and heal the broken-hearted. Transform lives through Your teaching and bring more people to know You.

Keep us from sin and wrong thinking. Fill us with love and kindness. Help us live like Jesus, reflecting His light. Bless our church and all churches worldwide. Support missionaries and help spread Your message globally.

May Your kingdom come, overcoming all obstacles and false beliefs. Reign, Lord Jesus - come quickly.

Amen.
