Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Together in Song #64 (1999) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O bless the Lord, my soul,
his saving grace proclaim,
and all that is within me join
to bless his holy name.
2 O bless the Lord, my soul,
his mercies bear in mind,
forget not all his benefits:
The Lord to me 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 my sins,
prolongs my feeble breath,
he heals all our infirmities,
and ransoms me from death.
5 He clothes me with his love,
upholds me with his truth,
and like the eagle he renews
the vigor of my youth.
5 Then bless his holy name
whose grace has made me whole,
whose loving kindness crowns my days;
O bless the Lord, my soul.
