Psalm 103

Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Bless the Lord, O my soul Lyrics: Refrain: My soul, give thanks to the Lord, and bless God's holy name. 1 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless His holy name. (Refrain) 2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and do not forget all His benefits, 3 who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, 4 who redeems your life from the Pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, 5 who satisfies you with good as long as you live so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's. (Refrain) 6 The Lord works vindication and justice for all who are oppressed. 7 He made know His ways to Moses, His acts to the people of Israel. 8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. 9 He will not always accuse, nor will He keep His anger forever. 10 He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. (Refrain) 11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His steadfast love toward those who fear Him; 12 as far as the east is from the west, so far He removes our transgressions from us. As a father has compassion for his children, so the Lord has compassion for those who fear Him.

Joseph Gelineau

1920 - 2008 Person Name: Joseph Gelineau, SJ Composer (Gelineau tone) of "[My soul give thanks to the Lord]" in Gather (3rd ed.) Joseph Gelineau (1920-2008) Gelineau's translation and musical settings of the psalms have achieved nearly universal usage in the Christian church of the Western world. These psalms faithfully recapture the Hebrew poetic structure and images. To accommodate this structure his psalm tones were designed to express the asymmetrical three-line/four-line design of the psalm texts. He collaborated with R. Tournay and R. Schwab and reworked the Jerusalem Bible Psalter. Their joint effort produced the Psautier de la Bible de Jerusalem and recording Psaumes, which won the Gran Prix de L' Academie Charles Cros in 1953. The musical settings followed four years later. Shortly after, the Gregorian Institute of America published Twenty-four Psalms and Canticles, which was the premier issue of his psalms in the United States. Certainly, his text and his settings have provided a feasible and beautiful solution to the singing of the psalms that the 1963 reforms envisioned. Parishes, their cantors, and choirs were well-equipped to sing the psalms when they embarked on the Gelineau psalmody. Gelineau was active in liturgical development from the very time of his ordination in 1951. He taught at the Institut Catholique de Paris and was active in several movements leading toward Vatican II. His influence in the United States as well in Europe (he was one of the founding organizers of Universa Laus, the international church music association) is as far reaching as it is broad. Proof of that is the number of times "My shepherd is the Lord" has been reprinted and reprinted in numerous funeral worship leaflets, collections, and hymnals. His prolific career includes hundreds of compositions ranging from litanies to responsories. His setting of Psalm 106/107, "The Love of the Lord," for assembly, organ, and orchestra premiƩred at the 1989 National Association of Pastoral Musicians convention in Long Beach, California. --www.giamusic.com
