Give thanks to the Lord

Psalm 136:1-21
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for His love endures forever,  to him who alone does great wonders, who by his understanding made the heavens, who spread out the earth upon the waters, who made the great lights, the sun to govern the day, the moon and stars to govern the night, to him who stuck down the firstborn of Egypt, to him who lead his people through the desert, to the One who remembered us in out low estate and freed us from out enemies, and who gives food to every creature.
Give thanks to the Lord of heaven. His love endures forever.
Hallel is the Hebrew word for praise, and this psalm was sung at Passover. The description of God's great works in creation and history alternate with the people's refrain(副歌) to God's unchanging timeless love.
Why?
God is good to his people and every creature, so let us praise his holy name, sing praise song to our great king, the Lord Almighty.
His love endure forever, more than everything in the world.
How?
May my heart always go with the Lord and give thanks to the Lord every moment!
