Lyics

OH 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 thy 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!
