Cycle of Holy Songs

Behold, bless ye the Lord, all ye servants of the Lord,
which by night stand in the house of the Lord.
Lift up your hands in the sanctuary and bless the Lord. Behold!
The Lord that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.

1 I cried unto the Lord with my voice;
  with my voice unto the Lord 
  did I make my supplication.
2 I poured out my complaint before him;
  I shewed before him my trouble.
3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me,
  then Thou knewest my path.
  In the way wherein I walked have they privily 
  laid a snare for me.
4 I looked on my right hand, and beheld,
  but there was no man that would know me:
  refuge failed me; 
  no man cared for my soul.
5 I cried unto Thee, O Lord: 
  I said, thou art my refuge 
  and my portion in the land of the living.
6 Attend unto my cry; 
  for I am brought very low:
  deliver me from my persecutors; 
  for they are stronger than I.
7 Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise Thy name:
  the righteous shall compass me about;
  for Thou shall deal bountifully with me.
I cried unto the Lord; unto the Lord did I make my supplication. Attend unto my cry.

1  Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
2  Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
3  Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
4  Praise ye him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
5  Let them praise the name of the LORD:
   for he commanded, and they were created.
6  He hath also stablished them for ever and ever:
   he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
7  Praise ye the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
8  Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour;
   stormy wind fulfilling his word:
9  Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
11 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent;
   his glory is above the earth and heaven.
14 He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints;
   even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.

Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary:
Praise him in the firmament of his pow'r
Praise him for his mighty acts:
Praise him according to his excellent greatness.
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet:
Praise him with the psaltery and harp.
Praise him with the timbrel and dance:
praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Praise him upon the loud cymbals:
praise him upon the high sounding cymbals
Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord.
Praise ye the Lord.
