Shout with joy to God, all the earth!Sing the glory of his name;
make his praise glorious!
Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds!
So great is your power that your enemies of abnormalities and sickness  cringe before you;
All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing praise to your name."

Come and see what God has done,
how awesome are his works in Kirsten's behalf!
He took away her hearing loss,
Kirsten can hear!
Come, let us rejoice in him.
He rules forever by his power,
his eyes watch Kirsten and our family
let us not rise up rebellious against him.

Praise our God, O peoples,
let the sounds of his praise be heard;
he has preserved Kirsten's life and kept her feet from slipping.
For you, O God, tested Kirsten and our family; you refined us like silver.
You brought her into sickness and laid burdens on our backs.
You let sickness ride over her head and she went through sleeplessness, missed school, numerous doctors' appointments,
but you brought us to a place of abundance.

We will come before you with offerings and fulfill our vows to you --
vows our lips promised and our mouths spoke when we were in trouble.
We offer you praise!
We give you glory for what you have done!

Come and listen, all you who fear God;
let us tell you what he has done for Kirsten and our family.
We cried out to him with our mouths;
his praise was on our tongues.
If we had cherished sin in our hearts,
the Lord would not have listened;
but God has surely listened and hear our voices in prayers.
Praise be to God,
who has not rejected our prayers or withheld his love from us!

Psalm 66, adapted
