Representative Text

1 O praise the LORD, for it is a good thing to sing praises unto our God, yea, a joyful and pleasant thing it is to be thankful.
2 The LORD doth build up Jerusalem and gather together the outcast of Israel.
3 He healeth those that are broken in heart and giveth medicine to heal their sickness.
4 O sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praises upon the harp unto our God:
5 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, and prepareth rain for the earth and maketh the grass to grow upon the mountains, and herv for the use of men;
6 Who giveth fodder unto the cattle and feedeth the young ravens that call upon him.
7 Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God O Sion.
8 For he hath made fast the bars of thy gates and hath blessed thy children within thee.
9 He maketh peace in thy borders and filleth thee with the flour of wheat.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be; world without end.

Amen.
