Praise the Lord, O my soul,
The God of compassion;
To whom is in control,
Flowing love in fashion.

I will sing to the Lord,
Praise as long as I live;
Remain in one accord,
Giving all, I can give.

I will sing praise to God,
As I have my being;
Giving honor and laud,
Desire in seeing.

I put no trust in man,
Princes or any kings;
Because they have no plan,
That His salvation brings.

When His breath would depart,
Unto earth He returns;
All die for a new start,
As everyone learns.

Bless whose help is in God,
Whose hope is in the Lord;
Curing where they are flawed,
His commands not ignored.

He made Heaven and earth,
The sea and all the land;
All creatures given birth,
Spoken by His command.

Who keep faith forever,
Who executes justice;
A love not to sever,
Shines His favor to bless.

Who give food who hungers,
Sets the prisoners free;
Punishes warmongers,
Opens eyes for to see.

The Lord will lift up those,
Who bow down as humbled;
Adopts the one that chose,
Has faith never grumbled.

The Lord watches strangers,
The orphan and widow;
Shielding them from dangers,
Gives hope for tomorrow.
