Praise to the Sovereign Lord for His Creation and Providence

1 Bless athe Lord, O my soul!
O Lord my God, You are very great:
You are clothed with honor and majesty, 
2 Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment,
Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.
3 aHe lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters,
Who makes the clouds His chariot,
Who walks on the wings of the wind, 
4 Who makes His1 angels spirits,
His ministers a flame of fire.
