- 1O bless the Lord, my soul!
- His grace to thee proclaim!
- And all that is within me join
- To bless His holy Name!
- 2O bless the Lord, my soul!
- His mercies bear in mind!
- Forget not all His benefits!
- The Lord to thee is kind.
- 3He will not always chide;
- He will with patience wait;
- His wrath is ever slow to rise,
- And ready to abate.
- 4He pardons all thy sins;
- Prolongs thy feeble breath;
- He healeth thine infirmities,
- And ransoms thee from death.
- 5He clothes thee with His love;
- Upholds thee with His truth;
- And like the eagle He renews
- The vigour of thy youth.
- 6Then bless His holy Name,
- Whose grace hath made thee whole,
- Whose loving-kindness crowns thy days!
- O bless the Lord, my soul!
