for your faithfulness, O my God;

Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.

It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.
~Psalm 100:1-5 (NIV)
Praise the Lord, O my soul;
all my inmost being, praise his holy name.

and heals all your diseases,
who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you with love and compassion,
who satisfies your desires with good things
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
