Psalm 103

The Psalm

Psalms. Chapter 103. By David. Praise the LORD, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name! Praise the LORD, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies, who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The LORD executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed. He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel. The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness. He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness towards those who fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us. Like a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him. For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust. As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes. For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more. But the LORD’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children, to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts. The LORD has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all. Praise the LORD, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfil his word, obeying the voice of his word. Praise the LORD, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure. Praise the LORD, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise the LORD, my soul!

Worship Lyrics

By David
Praise the LORD, my soul
All that is within me, praise his holy name
Praise the LORD, my soul, and dont forget all his benefits
Who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases
Who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies
Who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagles
The LORD executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed
He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel
The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger
And abundant in loving kindness
He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever
He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities
For as the heavens are high above the earth
So great is his loving kindness towards those who fear him
As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us
Like a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him
For he knows how we are made
He remembers that we are dust
As for man, his days are like grass
As a flower of the field, so he flourishes
For the wind passes over it, and it is gone
Its place remembers it no more
But the LORDs loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him
His righteousness to childrens children
To those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts
The LORD has established his throne in the heavens
His kingdom rules over all
Praise the LORD you angels of his who are mighty in strength
Who fulfil his word obeying the voice of his word
Praise the LORD, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure
Praise the LORD, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion
Praise the LORD, my soul
