Bless the Lord, O my soul.
O Lord, my God, you are very great.
You are clothed with honour and majesty,
wrapped in light as with a garment.
(sing) Halleluja
You stretch out the heavens like a tent,
You set the beams of your chambers on the waters,
You set the earth on its foundations,
so that it shall never be shaken.
(sing) Halleluja
You make springs gush forth in the valleys;
they flow between the hills,
giving drink to every wild animal.
(sing) Halleluja
You cause the grass to grow for the cattle,
and plants for people to use,
to bring forth food from the earth,
and wine to gladden the human heart.
(sing) Halleluja
May the glory of the Lord endure forever.
May the Lord rejoice in his works.
