Meditations on Psalm 103

Bless the LORD, O my Soul,
my lips his worth I now extol
From within this feeble frame,
I rise to bless his holy name
Forgetting not his benefits,
the only one to whom my praise is fit

You’ve forgiven all my iniquities
You’ve given me new eyes to see
You’ve showered me in your mercy
You’ve crowned my life with love in thee

Bless the LORD, O my Soul,
my lips his worth I now extol
From within this feeble frame,
I rise to bless his holy name
Forgetting not his benefits,
the only one to whom my praise is fit

You know the weakness of my frame,
like the dust from whence I came
You know the evil of my games,
the belittling of your holy name
You know all this and still the same,
you gave your son, my soul to save
From the manger to the grave,
he blessed, he honored your holy name

Bless the LORD, O my Soul,
my lips his worth I now extol
From within this feeble frame,
I rise to bless his holy name
Forgetting not his benefits,
the only one to whom my praise is fit

Jesus Christ the blessed One,
gave his life, my pardon won
The perfect son, the perfect man,
in my place he took his stand
Obeyed your law at every turn,
so that for me righteousness he earned
To the cross, he’s lifted high,
heaven’s prince was crucified
Amid the horrors and the cries,
Jesus drank damnation dry

Bless the LORD, O my Soul,
my lips his worth I now extol
From within this feeble frame,
I rise to bless his holy name
Forgetting not his benefits,
the only one to whom my praise is fit

Now the King has been raised on high,
death’s been beaten, death has died
With Christ Jesus I’m forever accepted,
united to him, secure and protected
I’m tasting now the springs of heaven,
but long still for eternal blessings

Bless the LORD, O my Soul,
my lips his worth I now extol
From within this feeble frame,
I rise to bless his holy name
Forgetting not his benefits,
the only one to whom my praise is fit
For as high as the heavens are above the earth
so great is your steadfast love toward your church
