                        Bless the Lord Eternal, O My Soul
                                 Psalm 103


1.        Bless the Lord Eternal, O my soul, bless His holy sacred name! And forget
          not all His benefits to those who fear His name. He forgives all our
          iniquities; our diseases He will heal; From destruction He redeems our life,
          and He crowns us with His love!

2.        Bless the Lord Eternal, O my soul, let the heavens praise His name! For His
          mercy is as high above as heav'n above the earth. Not according to our
          many sins has the Lord so dealt with us; For as far as east is from the west,
          He removes from us our sins!

3.        Bless the Lord Eternal, O my soul, let the angels praise His name! For in
          heaven He has fixed His throne and there He rules the earth. The Eternal
          vindicates the cause of all those who have been wronged; For His mercy is
          as high above as the heav'ns above the earth!

     4.      Bless the Lord Eternal, O my soul, for His love always endures! And His
          loyalty is to our sons who keep all His commands. As for man, he blossoms
                 like a flow'r, and his days are like the grass; But from death the Lord
                                      redeems our life and He crowns us with His love!
