LyicsOh bless the Lord, my soul!
His grace to thee proclaim;
And all that is within me, join
To bless his holy name.
Oh bless the Lord, my soul!
His mercies bear in mind,
Forget not all his benefits;
The Lord to thee is kind.
He will not always chide;
He will with patience wait;
His wrath is ever slow to rise,
And ready to abate.
He pardons all thy sins,
Prolongs thy feeble breath:
He healeth thine infirmities,
And ransoms thee from death.
Then bless his holy name
Whose grace hath made thee whole,
Whose loving-kindness crowns thy days,
Oh bless the Lord, my soul!
