Lyrics:
Antiphon: ||: I will praise your name, my King and my God. :||
1. I will give you glory, my God and King, and I will bless your name forever. Every day I will bless and praise your name forever.
2. The Lord is full of grace and mercy. He is kind and slow to anger. He is good in all His works and full of compassion.
3. Let all your works give you thanks, O Lord, and let all the faithful bless you. Let them speak of your might, O Lord, the glory of your kingdom.
4. The Lord is faithful in all His words, and always near. His name is holy. He lifts up all those who fall. He raises up the lowly.
