Praise God. The Lord praise, O my soul

1 Praise God. The Lord praise, O my soul.
2 I'll praise God while I live;
While I have being to my God
in songs I'll praises give.
3 Trust not in princes, nor man's son,
in whom there is no stay:
4 His breath departs, to's earth he turns;
that day his thoughts decay.

5 O happy is that man and blessed,
whom Jacob's God doth aid;
Whose hope upon the Lord doth rest,
and on his God is stayed:
6 Who made the earth and heavens high,
who made the swelling deep,
And all that is within the same;
who truth doth ever keep:

7 Who righteous judgment executes
for those oppressed that be,
Who to the hungry giveth food;
God sets the pris'ners free.
8 The Lord doth give the blind their sight,
the bowèd down doth raise:
The Lord doth dearly love all those
that walk in upright ways.

9 The stranger's shield, the widow's stay,
the orphan's help, is he:
But yet by him the wicked's way
turned upside down shall be.
10 The Lord shall reign for evermore:
thy God, O Zion, he
Reigns to all generätions.
Praise to the Lord give ye.
