PRAISING GOD
PART 23
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
O Lord, my God,
You are very great
You are clothed with splendor and
majesty
covering Yourself with light
as with a cloak
Stretching out heaven like a tent curtain
He lays the beams of His upper chambers
in the waters
He makes the clouds His chariot
He walks upon the wings of the wind
He makes the winds His messengers
Flaming fire His ministers.
He established the earth upon its
foundations
So that it will not totter forever and ever.
Thou did'st cover it with the deep as with
a garment
The waters were standing above the
mountains
At Your rebuke they fled.
At the sound of Your thunder they
hurried away
The mountains rose the valleys sank down
To the place which You established for them
You have set a boundary that they may not
pass over
That they may not return to cover the earth.
He sends forth the springs in the valleys
They flow between the mountains.
They give drink to every beast of the field
The wild donkeys quench their thirst
Beside them them the birds of the heaven dwell
They lift up their voice among the
branches
He waters the mountains from His
upper chambers
The earth is satisfied with the fruit
of His works.
