61. O My Soul, Bless Thou Jehovah

1 O my soul, bless thou Jehovah,
All within me bless His name;
Bless Jehovah, and forget not
All His mercies to proclaim:

Chorus:
For as high as is the heaven
Far above the earth below,
Ever great to them that fear Him
Is the mercy He will show.

2 Who forgives all thy transgressions,
Thy diseases all who heals,
Who redeems thee from destruction,
Who with thee so kindly deals. [Chorus]

3 Far as east from west is distant,
He hath put away our sin;
Like the pity of a father
Hath the Lord's compassion been. [Chorus]

4 Bless Jehovah, all His creatures
Ever under His control,
All throughout His vast dominion;
Bless Jehovah, O my soul. [Chorus]
