Chris Tomlin - Never Lose Sight Devotional

DAY 7 OF 11

"Glory Be" Devotional
Chris Tomlin

In the Christian tradition, we have a simple hymn of praise called the doxology. Churches and denominations sing, or recite, different versions of the doxology, but the purpose is the same: to praise the triune God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Glory be to God the Father
Glory be to God the Son
Glory be to God the Spirit

The word doxology comes from the Greek words “doxa,” which means glory, and “logia,” which means saying. Saying glory. As God’s creation, this is what we’re made to do: say glory, or in other words, worship. We praise God with our words, with our lives, and with our whole being.

Praise awaits You at the dawn
Praise awaits You in the night
With the heavens I will sing And lift You high

The wonders of God—his creation and power as well as his forgiveness and mercy—call forth songs of joy. They cause us to want to worship. Worship isn’t something we do out of obligation, but rather in response to who God is and what he has done.

As Psalm 65 says, “Praise awaits you, our God, in Zion; to you our vows will be fulfilled. You who answer prayer, to you all people will come… The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders; where morning dawns, where evening fades, you call forth songs of joy.” (Psalm 65:1-2, 8)

In worship, the focus is not on ourselves and our circumstances but on the one who is above. Worship, unlike any other act, reminds us of who God is—the one who is and was and is to come. For that we say the doxology. We say glory.

Glory be to God forever
All glory to the One
As it was and is and ever shall be
Amen
