Psalm 145 Part 1

Long as I live I'll bless thy name, My King, my God of love; My work and joy shall be the same In the bright world above.

Great is the Lord, his power unknown, And let his praise be great; I'll sing the honors of thy throne, Thy works of repeat.

Thy grace shall dwell upon my tongue; And while my lips rejoice, The men that hear my sacred song Shall join their cheerful voice.

Fathers to sons shall teach thy name, And children learn thy ways; Ages to come thy truth proclaim, And nations sound thy praise.

Thy glorious deeds of ancient date Shall through the world be known; Thine arm of power, thy heav'nly state, With public splendor shown.

The world is managed by thy hands, Thy are ruled by love; And thine eternal kingdom stands, Though rocks and hills remove.
