Praise God. The Lord praise, O my soul.
I�ll praise God while I live;
While I have being to my God
in songs I�ll praises give.
Trust not in princes, nor man�s son,
in whom there is no stay:
His breath departs, to�s earth he turns;
that day his thoughts decay.
O happy is that man and blest,
whom Jacob�s God doth aid;
Whose hope upon the Lord doth rest,
and on his God is stay�d:
Who made the earth and heavens high,
who made the swelling deep,
And all that is within the same;
who truth doth ever keep:
Who righteous judgment executes
for those oppress�d that be,
Who to the hungry giveth food;
God sets the pris�ners free.
The Lord doth give the blind their sight,
the bowed down doth raise:
The Lord doth dearly love all those
that walk in upright ways.
The stranger�s shield, the widow�s stay,
the orphan�s help, is he:
But yet by him the wicked�s way
turn�d upside down shall be.
The Lord shall reign for evermore:
thy God, O Sion, he
Reigns to all generations.
Praise to the Lord give ye.
