Ordinary Time // Part 1 // Week 11 // Aug. 21-27

Bless the LORD, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name.

Bless the LORD, O my soul,
and do not forget all his benefits--
who forgives all your iniquity,
who heals all your diseases,
who redeems your life from the Pit,
who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,

Bless the LORD,
O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name.

who satisfies you with good
as long as you live
so that your youth is renewed,
renewed like the eagle's.
The LORD works vindication and justice for all who are oppressed.

Bless the LORD,
O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name.

The LORD is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
