The Greatness and Goodness of God
Psalm of David
I will extol You, my God and King
and bless Your name forever and ever!
Every day I will bless You
and praise Your name forever and ever!
Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised!
His greatness is unsearchable.
One generation shall laud Your works to another
and shall declare Your mighty acts.
On the glorious splendor of Your majesty
and on Your wondrous works, I will meditate.
The might of Your awesome deeds shall be proclaimed
and I will declare Your greatness.
They shall celebrate the fame of Your abundant goodness
and shall sing aloud of Your righteousness.
The Lord is gracious and merciful,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
The Lord is good to all
and His compassion is over all that He has made.
All Your works shall give thanks to You, O Lord
and all Your faithful shall bless You!
They shall speak of the glory of Your Kingdom
and tell of Your power,
to make known to all people Your mighty deeds
and the glorious splendor of Your Kingdom.
Your Kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom
and Your dominion endures throughout all generations.
The Lord is faithful in all His words
and gracious in all His deeds.
The Lord upholds all who are falling
and raises up all who are bowed down.
The eyes of all look to You
and You give them food in due season.
You open Your hand,
satisfying the desire of every living thing.
The Lord is just in all His ways
and kind in all His doings.
The Lord is near to all who call on Him,
to all who call on Him in truth.
He fulfills the desire of all who fear Him;
He also hears their cry and saves them.
The Lord watches over all who love Him
but all the wicked He will destroy.
My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord
and all flesh will bless His Holy name forever and ever! –Psalm 145:1-21
