I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.
O give thanks unto the Lord; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the people;
Talk ye of his wondrous works. Glory ye in his holy name.

Bless the Lord, my soul.
O Lord my God, thou art very great;
Thou art clothed with honor and majesty:
Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment;
Who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain;
Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters;
Who maketh the clouds his chariot;
Who walketh upon the wings of the wind;

Who maketh winds his messengers,
Flames of fire his ministers :
Let the glory of the Lord endure for ever;
Let the Lord rejoice in his works :
Who looketh on the earth, and it trembleth;
He toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live:
I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
Let my meditation be sweet unto him :
I will rejoice in the Lord.

All:Bless the Lord, O my soul.
Praise ye the Lord.

Our Heavenly Father, thine is the beauty of this fair and friendly day. May
all that is beautiful remind us of thee, the Infinite Beauty! May all that is
good remind us of thee, the Perfect Goodness! May all that is true lead us
to thee, the Source of all truth! Breathe thy loving Spirit on us all, and make
thy morning shine within our hearts as in the skies above. Help us to make
more beautiful thy day. William and Mary Gannett

All the earth shall worship thee, the Father everlasting. We praise thee, we
bless thee, we worship thee, we glorify thee, we give thanks to thee for thy
great glory, Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father Almighty. Amen.

Unison Doxology
God the Lord a King remaineth,
Robed in his own glorious light;
God hath robed him, and he reigneth,
He hath guided him with might.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
God is King in depth and height.

Unison Doxology
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God!
For of him and through him and unto him are all things.
To him be the glory for ever and ever.
Now unto the blessed and only Potentate,
The King of kings, and Lord of lords;
Who only hath immortality,
Dwelling in light unapproachable,
Whom no man hath seen nor can see:
To him be honor and power everlasting. Amen.

Chant (All sing)
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Hosts!
Heaven and earth are full of thy glory:
Glory be to thee, Lord Most High. Amen,
