O, bless the Lord, my soul!

1

O, bless the Lord, my soul!Let all within me join,And aid my tongue to bless his name,Whose favors are divine.

2

O, bless the Lord, my soul!Nor let his mercies lieForgotten in unthankfulness,And without praises die.

3

'T is he forgives thy sins,'T is he relieves thy pain,'T is he that heals thy sicknesses,And makes thee whole again.

4

He crowns thy life with love,When ransomed from the grave;He that redeemed my soul from hellHath sovereign power to save.

5

He fills the poor with good,He gives the sufferers rest;The Lord hath judgments for the proudAnd justice for the oppressed.

6

His wondrous works and waysTo us he hath made known;And sent the world his truth and grace,By his belovèd Son.
