We’re Singing a New Song This Sunday
BLESS THE LORD, O MY SOUL BY SOVEREIGN GRACE MUSIC
This Sunday, we’re singing a song that celebrates God’s character. It’s Psalm 103 set to music. A hymn of praise to God that sings forth Israel’s most ancient confession of faith: “The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.”
Listen to the song, read the lyrics, and come ready to praise his name this Sunday.
VERSE 1
My God is slow to anger when I go astray
Bless the Lord, O my soul
For all of my betrayals, He will not repay
Bless the Lord, O my soul
Through mercy and compassion His great love is proved
He covers my transgressions like the snow
As far as east from west are all my sins removed
Bless the Lord, O my soul
VERSE 2
He saved me from the pit when I had lost all hope
Bless the Lord, O my soul
From endless springs of kindness all His blessings flow
Bless the Lord, O my soul
Our days will fade like flowers and are quickly spent
And like the wind our years will come and go
Everlasting favor is His covenant
Bless the Lord, O my soul
VERSE 3
Merciful and gracious is my God to me
Bless the Lord, O my soul
I will tell His goodness through eternity
Bless the Lord, O my soul
And bless the Lord, you angels, all you heav’nly hosts
And every living creature here below
Oh praise the Father, praise the Son, and Holy Ghost
Bless the Lord, O my soul
TAG
And bless the Lord, you angels, all you heav’nly hosts
And every living creature here below
Oh praise the Father, praise the Son, and Holy Ghost
Bless the Lord, O my soul
