I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever. I will sing a new song unto thee, O upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee. As an art work, Chinese calligraphy carries the calligrapher's mood and thoughts. You can really feel how the calligraphy felt when he was painting the art work.During the 4000 years of Chinese history, Chinese calligraphy is the sole of Chinese culture. Chinese calligraphy is not just writing Chinese characters. It is not just writing Chinese well. It is not just writing Chinese characters beautifully.

Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever. Happy is that people, that is in such a yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD. Chinese calligraphy are popular in China for thousands of years. People decorate rooms with Chinese calligraphy just like painting.
