Scottish Psaller (1650). >>> Psalm ciii. 1-10.
O THOU my soul, bless God the Lord;
- And all that in me is
Be stirrèd up his holy name
- To magnify and bless.
Bless, my soul, the Lord thy God,
- And not forgetful be
Of all his gracious benefits
- He hath bestowed on thee.
All thine iniquities who doth
- Most graciously forgive:
Who thy diseases all and pains
- Doth heal, and thee relieve.
Who doth redeem thy life, that thou
- To death may'st not go down;
Who thee with loving kindness doth
- And tender mercies crown:
Who with abundance of good things
- Doth satisfy thy mouth;
So that, even as the eagle's age,
- Renewèd is thy youth.
God righteous judgement executes
- For all oppressèd ones.
His ways to Moses, he his acts
- Made known to Israel's sons.
The Lord is of compassion full,
- And gracious he is found;
To anger he is very slow,
- In mercy doth abound.
He will not chide continually,
- Nor keep his anger still.
With us he dealt not as we sinned.
- Nor did requite our ill.}}
