Chant D

 

Psalm 145   Exaltabo te, Deus

1 I will exalt you, O God my King, *
and bless your Name for ever and ev-er.

2 Every day will I bless you *
and praise your Name for ever and ev-er.

3 Great is the LORD and greatly to be praised; *
there is no end to her great-ness.

4 One generation shall praise your works to ano-ther *
and shall de-clare your pow-er.

Chant D

5 I will ponder the glorious splendor of your ma-jesty *
and all your mar-velous works.

6 They shall speak of the might of your won-drous acts, *
and I will tell of your great-ness.

7 They shall publish the remembrance of your great good-ness; *
they shall sing of your right-eous deeds.

8 The LORD is gracious and full of com-pas-sion, *
slow to anger and of great kind-ness.

Chant D

9 The LORD is loving to ev-eryone *
and her compassion is over all her works.

10 All your works praise you, O LORD, *
and your faithful ser-vants bless you.

11 They make known the glory of your king-dom *
and speak of your pow-er;

12 That the peoples may know of your pow-er *
and the glorious splendor of your king-dom.

Chant D

13 Your kingdom is an everlast-ing king-dom; *
your dominion endures through-out all a-ges.

14 The LORD is faithful in all her words *
and merciful in all her deeds.

15 The LORD upholds all those who fall; *
she lifts up those who are bowed down.

16 The eyes of all wait upon you, O LORD, *
and you give them their food in due sea-son.

Chant D

17 You open wide your hand *
and satisfy the needs of every liv-ing crea-ture.

18 The LORD is righteous in all her ways *
and loving in all her works.

19 The LORD is near to those who call up-on her, *
to all who call up-on her faith-fully.

20 She fulfills the desire of those who fear her; *
she hears their cry and helps them.
Chant D

21 The LORD preserves all those who love her, *
but she destroys all the wic-ked.

22 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD; *
let all flesh bless her holy Name for ever and ev-er.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Ho-ly Spir-it: *
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ev-er. A-men.
