All Bless the Lord, O my soul. ♦
O Lord my God, how excellent is your greatness!
You are clothed with majesty and honour, ♦
wrapped in light as in a garment.
The sun knows the time for its setting. ♦
You make darkness that it may be night.
All Bless the Lord, O my soul. ♦
O Lord my God, how excellent is your greatness!
O Lord, how manifold are your works! ♦
In wisdom you have made them all;
the earth is full of your creatures.
When you send forth your spirit, they are created, ♦
and you renew the face of the earth.
All Bless the Lord, O my soul. ♦
O Lord my God, how excellent is your greatness!
May the glory of the Lord endure for ever; ♦
may the Lord rejoice in his works;
I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; ♦
I will make music to my God while I have my being.
All Bless the Lord, O my soul. ♦
O Lord my God, how excellent is your greatness!
