Author: James Montgomery Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 194 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Oh, bless the Lord, my soul!
His grace to thee proclaim!
And all that is within me join
to bless His holy Name!
2 Oh, bless the Lord, my soul!
His mercies bear in mind!
Forget not all His benefits!
The Lord to thee is kind.
3 He will not always chide;
He will with patience wait;
His wrath is ever slow to rise,
And ready to abate.
4 He pardons all thy sins;
Prolongs thy feeble breath;
He healeth thine infirmities,
And ransoms thee from death.
5 He clothes thee with His love;
Upholds thee with His truth;
And, like the eagle He renews
The vigor of thy youth.
5 Then bless His Holy Name,
Whose grace hath made thee whole,
Whose loving-kindness crowns thy days!
Oh, bless the Lord, my soul!
Amen. Topics: Parochial Missions; Praise Used With Tune: [Oh, bless the Lord, my soul]
