K.5 Splendour of Creation / Psalm 103

Chorus:
Send forth your Spirit, O Lord,
That the face of the earth be renewed.

O my soul, arise and bless the Lord God,
O Lord, in majesty,
Enrobed with pow’r and eternal might.

You are clothed with splendour and with beauty;
O God, and heav’nly light
Is like a cloud that conceals your face.

You have built your palace on the waters;
On wings of winds and fire,
You reign in heav’n, rule supreme on earth.

Like the winds, your angels fly before you;
As fire and flaming light,
Your ministers stand before your throne.

For the earth you fixed on its foundations;
Indeed, it shall stand firm,
And not be moved for unending years.

While I live, I sing the praise of Yahweh,
O Lord, your glorious praise
My lips proclaim: Blessed be the Lord.

Praise to God, the author of these marvels,
To God, the mighty One,
Who made the earth, glory to his name.
