Opening Sentance
Bless the Lord, you priests of the Lord: sing praise and highly exalt our God for ever.. . . .Song of the Three Young Men 62 (adapted).
Always be joyful, pray continually;
give thanks, whatever happens.
Psalm 103:1-14
- Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name. - Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and do not forget all his benefits— - who forgives all your iniquity,
who heals all your diseases, - who redeems your life from the Pit,
who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, - who satisfies you with good as long as you live
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. - The Lord works vindication
and justice for all who are oppressed. - He made known his ways to Moses,
his acts to the people of Israel. - The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. - He will not always accuse,
nor will he keep his anger for ever. - He does not deal with us according to our sins,
nor repay us according to our iniquities. - For as the heavens are high above the earth,
so great is his steadfast love
towards those who fear him; - as far as the east is from the west,
so far he removes our transgressions from us. - As a father has compassion for his children,
so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him.
