I Will Exalt You, My God and King

1<A Song of praise. Of David.> Let me give glory to you, O God, my King; and blessing to your name for ever and ever.+ 2Every day will I give you blessing, praising your name for ever and ever.+ 3Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; his power may never be searched out.+ 4One generation after another will give praise to your great acts, and make clear the operation of your strength.+ 5My thoughts will be of the honour and glory of your rule, and of the wonder of your works.+ 6Men will be talking of the power and fear of your acts; I will give word of your glory.+ 7Their sayings will be full of the memory of all your mercy, and they will make songs of your righteousness.+ 8The Lord is full of grace and pity; not quickly angry, but great in mercy.+ 9The Lord is good to all men; and his mercies are over all his works.+ 10All the works of your hands give praise to you, O Lord; and your saints give you blessing.+ 11Their words will be of the glory of your kingdom, and their talk of your strength;+ 12So that the sons of men may have knowledge of his acts of power, and of the great glory of his kingdom.+ 13Your kingdom is an eternal kingdom, and your rule is through all generations.+ 14The Lord is the support of all who are crushed, and the lifter up of all who are bent down.+ 15The eyes of all men are waiting for you; and you give them their food in its time.+ 16By the opening of your hand, every living thing has its desire in full measure.+ 17The Lord is upright in all his ways, and kind in all his works.+ 18The Lord is near all those who give honour to his name; even to all who give honour to him with true hearts.+ 19To his worshippers, he will give their desire; their cry comes to his ears, and he gives them salvation.+ 20The Lord will keep all his worshippers from danger; but he will send destruction on all sinners.+ 21My mouth will give praise to the Lord; let all flesh be blessing his holy name for ever and ever.+
