Psalm 145
I will exalt you, O God my king
: I will bless your name for ever and ever.
Every day will I bless you
: and praise your name for ever and ever.
Great is the Lord, and wonderfully worthy to be praised
: his greatness is past searching out.
One generation shall praise your works to another
: and declare your mighty acts.
As for me,
I will be talking of the glorious splendour of your majesty
: I will tell the story of your marvellous works.
Men shall recount the power of your terrible deeds
: and I will proclaim your greatness.
Their lips shall flow
with the remembrance of your abundant goodness
: they shall shout for joy at your righteousness.
The Lord is gracious and compassionate
: slow to anger and of great goodness.
The Lord is loving to every man
: and his mercy is over all his works.
All creation praises you, O Lord
: and your faithful servants bless your name.
They speak of the glory of your kingdom
: and tell of your great might,
That all mankind may know your mighty acts
: and the glorious splendour of your kingdom.
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom
: and your dominion endures through all generations.
The Lord upholds all those who stumble
: and raises up those that are bowed down.
The eyes of all look to you in hope
: and you give them their food in due season;
You open wide your hand
: and fill all things living with your bounteous gift.
The Lord is just in all his ways
: and faithful in all his dealings.
The Lord is near to all who call upon him
: to all who call upon him in truth.
He will fulfil the desire of those that fear him
: he will hear their cry, and save them.
The Lord preserves all those that love him
: but the wicked he will utterly destroy.
My mouth shall speak the praises of the Lord
: and let all flesh bless his holy name, for ever and ever.
