O God, who is like unto Thee!
There is not one that can do as Thou doest;
Great things are they that Thou hast done!
The pastures are filled with flocks, the valleys are covered over with corn;
They shout for joy, they also sing.
Thou visitest the earth, Thou makest it very plenteous.
Thou openest Thine hand, and fillest all things living with plenteousness.
Thou crownest the year with Thy goodness.
Whoso is wise will ponder these things, and they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord.
Praise the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me praise His Holy Name.
Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits.
Who saveth thy life from destruction!
And crownest thee with mercy and lovingkindness.
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things.
Praise the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me praise His Holy Name.
