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.
