Ordinary Time // Week 20 // Oct. 6-12
WONDERFUL ARE YOUR WORKS
I praise you, I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Even before a word is on my tongue, O LORD, you know it completely.
You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is so high that I cannot attain it.
For it was you who formed my inward parts;
I praise you, I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
I praise you, I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works; Wonderful are your works;
Your eyes beheld my unformed substance. In your book were written
all the days that were formed for me, when none of them as yet existed.
How weighty to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!
I try to count them—they are more than the sand; I come to the end
—I am still with you.
you who formed my inward parts;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you, I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
I praise you, I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works; Wonderful are your works
Wonderful are your works; that I know very well.
