I will exalt You, my God the King
I will praise Your name for ever and ever
Every day I will praise You
And extol Your name for ever and ever

Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise
His greatness no one can fathom
One generation commends Your works to another
They tell of Your mighty acts which are not seldom

They speak of the glorious splendor of Your majesty—
And I will meditate on Your wonderful works
I will proclaim Your great deeds
As they tell of the power of Your awesome works

They celebrate Your abundant goodness
And joyfully sing of Your righteousness
The Lord is gracious and compassionate
Slow to anger and rich in love and kindness

The Lord is good to all
He has compassion on all He has made
All Your works praise You, Lord
Your faithful people extol You and rest in Your shade

They tell of the glory of Your kingdom
And speak of Your might
So that all people may know the glorious splendor of Your kingdom
And of Your mighty acts

Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom
And Your dominion endures through all generations
The Lord is trustworthy in all He promises
And faithful in all He does to all the population

The Lord upholds all who fall
And lifts up all who are bowed down and on their knees
The eyes of all look to You
And You give them their food at the proper time for them to please

You open Your hand
And satisfy the desires of every living thing
The Lord is righteous in all His ways
And faithful in all He does which is seen and unseen

The Lord is near to all who call on Him
To all who call on Him in truth so to be heard
He fulfills the desires of those who fear Him
He hears their cry and saves them with His word

The Lord watches over all who love Him
But all the wicked He will destroy
My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord
Let every creature praise His holy name for ever and ever to live and enjoy
