DAY BY DAY

.

Praise the LORD, O my soul.

O LORD my God,

you are very great;

you are clothed with splendour and majesty.
He wraps himself in light as with a garment;

he stretches out the heavens like a tent
and lays the beams of his upper chambers on their waters.

He makes the clouds his chariot

and rides on the wings of the wind.
He makes winds his messengers,

flames of fire his servants.
He set the earth on its foundations;

it can never be moved…

The moon marks off the seasons,

and the sun knows when to go down.
You bring darkness, it becomes night,

and all the beasts of the forest prowl.
The lions roar for their prey

and seek their food from God.
The sun rises, and they steal away;

they return and lie down in their dens.

Then man goes out to his work,

to his labour until evening.
How many are your works, O LORD!

In wisdom you made them all;

the earth is full of your creatures.

.

Psalm 104:1-5 / 19-34
