Praise The Lord
Praise The Lord
Praise God from whom
All blessings flow
Praise Him all creatures here below
Praise Him above ye heavenly host
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
Praise the Lord, O my soul
All my inmost being, praise his holy name
Praise the Lord, O my soul
And forget not all his benefits
Who forgives all your sins
And heals all your diseases
Who redeems your life from the pit
And crowns you with love and compassion
Who satisfies your desires with good things
So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
The Lord works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed
He made known his ways to Moses
His deeds to the people of Israel
The Lord is compassionate and gracious
Slow to anger, abounding in love
He will not always accuse
Nor will he harbour his anger for ever
He does not treat us as our sins deserve
Or repay us according to our iniquities.
For as high as the heavens are above the earth
So great is his love for those who fear him
As far as the east is from the west
So far has he removed our transgressions from us
As a Father has compassion on those who fear him.
For he knows how we are formed
He remembers that we are dust
As for man, his days are like grass
He flourishes like a flower of the field
The wind blows over it and it is gone
And its place remembers it no more.
But from everlasting to everlasting
The Lord’s love is with those who fear him
And his righteousness with their children’s children
With those who keep his covenant
And remember to obey his precepts
The Lord has established his throne in heaven
And his kingdom rules over all.
