1 Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:
3 Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases,
4 Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
1 [By David.] With all my heart I praise the Lord, and with all that I am I praise his holy name!
2 With all my heart I praise the Lord! I will never forget how kind he has been.
3 The Lord forgives our sins, heals us when we are sick,
4 and protects us from death. His kindness and love are a crown on our heads.
5 Each day that we live, he provides for our needs and gives us the strength of a young eagle.
1 With my whole heart, with my whole life, and with my innermost being, I bow in wonder and love before you, the holy God!
2 Yahweh, you are my soul’s celebration. How could I ever forget the miracles of kindness you’ve done for me?
3 You kissed my heart with forgiveness, in spite of all I’ve done. You’ve healed me inside and out from every disease.
4 You’ve rescued me from hell and saved my life. You’ve crowned me with love and mercy.
5 You satisfy my every desire with good things. You’ve supercharged my life so that I soar again like a flying eagle in the sky!
