(\'O praise ye the Lord\')

Psalms 145 - 150 parts

*********

Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised

His greatness unsearchable, hymns be raised

One generation shall praise His works unto

Another, and sing His mighty acts anew

 

Teh Lord is gracious, full of compassion

Slow to anger, great mercy to each one

The Lord is good to all, His tender mercies

Are over all His works, the captives He frees

 

Put not trust in man, in him no help be

He lives for a while, temporarily

But happy are they who the Lord God have for

Their help, He eternal, comes to our aid sure

 

Great is our Lord, and He be of great power

His understanding infinite each hour

He lifts up the meek, casts wicked to the ground

Sing to the Lord with thanks, let praises resound

 

Praise the Lord, earth, sea, sky, where\'er you be

Bring voices, instruments, join joyfully

Let all things that have breath unite in accord

To praise the Almighty and eternal Lord
