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…

The LORD is compassionate and gracious,

Slow to anger and abounding in love.

He will not always accuse,

Nor will He harbor His anger forever;

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 His children,

So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him…

 

Praise the LORD, O my soul.
