PSAL. CXLV.

[1]

I'le thee extol, my God, O King,

I'le blesse thy name alwayes:

22

Thee wil I blesse each day, and wil

thy Name for ever praise.

3

Great is the Lord, much to be prais'd

his greatnesse search exceeds,

4

Race unto race shal praise thy works,

and show thy mighty deeds.

5

I of thy glorious Majesty

the honour wil record,
I'le speak of all thy mighty works
which wondrous are, O Lord.

6

Men of thine acts, ye might shal show,

thine acts, that dreadful are:
And I, thy Glory to advance,
thy greatnesse wil declare.

7

The memory of thy goodnesse great

they largely shal expresse:
With songs of praise they shal extol
thy perfect righteousnesse.

8

The Lord is very gracious,

in him compassions flow,
In mercy he is very great,
and is to anger slow.

9

The Lord JEHOVAH unto all

his goodnesse doth declare:
And over all his other works
his tender mercies are,

10

Thee all thy works shal praise, O Lord,

and thee thy saints shal blesse.

11

They shal thy Kingdoms glory show

thy pow'r by speech expresse.

12

To make the sons of men to know

His acts done mightily,
And of his Kingdom th'excellent
and glorious Majesty

13

Thy Kingdom shal for ever stand,

thy reign through ages all.

14

God raiseth al that are bow'd down

upholdeth all that fal.

15

The eyes of al things wait on thee,

the giver of all good,
And thou in time convenient
bestows on them their food.

16

Thy hand thou openest liberally,

and of thy bounty gives
Enough to satisfie the need
of every thing that lives.

17

The Lord is just in all his wayes,

holy in his works all.

18

God's near to all that cal on him,

in truth that on him cal.

19

He wil accomplish the desire

of those that do him fear:
He also wil deliver them,
and he their cry wil hear.

20

The Lord preserves all who him love,

that nought can them annoy:
But he all those that wicked are
will utterly destroy.

21

My mouth the praises of the Lord

to publish, cease shal never:
Let all flesh blesse his holy Name
for ever and for ever.
