Ashray
Happy are they who dwell in thy house,
Forevermore shall they praise thee.
Happy the people with whom it is so,
Happy the people whose God is the Lord.
Psalm 145
A Psalm of David.
I will exalt thee my God, O King,
And praise thy name forever and ever.
Day by day will I praise thee,
And extol thy name forevermore.
Great is the Lord and mightily to be praised;
His greatness cannot be fathomed.
One generation praises thy works to another;
They proclaim thy mighty deeds.
They speak of thy glorious, majestic splendor,
And I ponder over thy wondrous works.
They tell of the power, of thine awe-inspiring deeds,
And I recount the story of thy greatness.
They rehearse the fame of thy great goodness,
And sing with joy of thy righteousness.
The Lord is gracious and full of compassion,
He is forbearing and abounding in kindness.
The Lord is good to all,
And his mercies are over all his works.
All thy works shall praise thee, Lord,
And thy devoted servants shall call thee blessed.
They shall tell of thy glorious kingdom,
And discourse upon thy might;
Making known thy mighty deeds to all,
And the glory of thy majestic reign.
Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
And thy dominion endures through all generations.
The Lord upholds all who fall,
And lifts all who are bowed down.
The eyes of all look with hope to thee,
And thou givest them their food in its time.
Thou openest thy hand,
And satisfiest the desire of all that live.
The Lord is righteous in all his ways,
And gracious in all his deeds.
The Lord is nigh to all who call upon him,
To all who call upon him in truth.
He fulfills the desire of those who revere him;
He hears their anguished cry and helps them.
The Lord safeguards all those who love him;
While all the wicked he brings to naught.
My mouth shall utter the praise of the Lord,
And may all flesh praise his holy name forever.
And so, let us, indeed, praise the Lord,
Let us praise him now and ever.
Hallelujah! Praise ye the Lord!
