Bless the Lord

BLESS THE LORD  (Psalm 104)
The Lord God's clothed in majesty
Like a garment covered in light.
He stretched heavens like a curtain,
Set the moon and stars in the night.

The Lord sends springs in the valleys,
In Lebanon cedar's birds nest.
The young lions roar for their prey,
Then in their dens lay down to rest.

I'll sing praises unto the Lord,
Meditation on him is sweet.
The Lord rejoices in His works,
In wisdom those works are complete.

The earth is full of His riches,
And so great and wide is the sea.
His hand is filled with all goodness,
His blessings abound unto me.
