1. I will exalt you, O God my King, *
   and bless your Name for ever and ever.
2. Every day will I bless you *
   and praise your Name for ever and ever.
3. Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; *
   there is no end to his greatness.
4. One generation shall praise your works to another *
   and shall declare your power.
5. I will ponder the glorious splendor of your majesty *
   and all your marvelous works.
6. They shall speak of the might of your wondrous acts, *
   and I will tell of your greatness.
7. They shall publish the remembrance of your great goodness; *
   they shall sing of your righteous deeds.
8. The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, *
   slow to anger and of great kindness.
9. The Lord is loving to everyone *
   and his compassion is over all his works.
10. All your works praise you, O Lord, *
    and your faithful servants bless you.
11. They make known the glory of your kingdom *
    and speak of your power;
12. That the peoples may know of your power *
    and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
13. Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom; *
    your dominion endures throughout all ages.
14. The Lord is faithful in all his words *
    and merciful in all his deeds.
15. The Lord upholds all those who fall; *
    he lifts up those who are bowed down.
16. The eyes of all wait upon you, O Lord, *
    and you give them their food in due season.
17. You open wide your hand *
    and satisfy the needs of every living creature.
18. The Lord is righteous in all his ways *
    and loving in all his works.
19. The Lord is near to those who call upon him, *
    to all who call upon him faithfully.
20. He fulfills the desire of those who fear him; *
    he hears their cry and helps them.
21. The Lord preserves all those who love him, *
    but he destroys all the wicked.
22. My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord; *
    let all flesh bless his holy Name for ever and ever.
