1. O my soul, bless God the Father; All within me bless His name; Bless the Father, and forget not All His mercies to proclaim. 2. Who forgives all your transgressions, Your diseases all who heals; Who redeems you from destruction, Who with you so kindly deals. 3. Far as east from west is distant, He has put away our sin; Like the pity of a father Has the Lord's compassion been. 4. As it was without beginning, So it lasts without an end; To their children's children ever Shall His righteousness extend. 5. Unto such as keep His cov'nant And are steadfast in His way; Unto those who still remember His commandments, and obey. 6. Bless the Father, all His creatures, Ever under His control, All thro' out His vast dominion: Bless the Father, O my soul.
