LORD my God you are very great ...

 Psalm 104

 

Praise the LORD, my soul. 

 

LORD my God you are very great;

you are clothed with splendor and majesty.

 

The LORD wraps himself in light as with a garment;

he stretches out the heavens like a tent

and lays the beams of his upper chambers on their waters.

He makes the clouds his chariot

and rides on the wings of the wind.

He makes wind his messengers, 

Flames of fire his servants.

 

He set the earth on its foundations;

it can never be moved.

You covered it with the watery depths as with a garment;

the waters stood about the mountains.

But at your rebuke the waters fled, 

at the sounds of your thunder they took to flight;

they flowed over the mountains,

they went down into the valleys,

to the place you assigned for them. 

You set a boundary they cannot not cross;

never again will they cover the earth.

 

Verses 1 -6
