Praise the Lord, My Soul

1{145:1}Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias.

2{145:2}Praise the Lord, O my soul, in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be. Put not your trust in princes:

3{145:3}In the children of men, in whom there is no salvation.

4{145:4}His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish.

5{145:5}Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

6{145:6}Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.

7{145:7}Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth them that are fettered:

8{145:8}The Lord enlighteneth the blind. The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down: the Lord loveth the just.

9{145:9}The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy.

10{145:10}The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, O Sion, unto generation and generation.
