1I will exalt you, my God and King, and praise your name forever and ever. ✦ 2I will praise you every day; yes, I will praise you forever. ✦ 3Great is the Lord! He is most worthy of praise! No one can measure his greatness. ✦ 4Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts; let them proclaim your power. ✦ 5I will meditate on your majestic, glorious splendor and your wonderful miracles. ✦ 6Your awe-inspiring deeds will be on every tongue; I will proclaim your greatness. ✦ 7Everyone will share the story of your wonderful goodness; they will sing with joy about your righteousness. ✦ 8The Lord is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. ✦ 9The Lord is good to everyone. He showers compassion on all his creation. ✦ 10All of your works will thank you, Lord, and your faithful followers will praise you. ✦ 11They will speak of the glory of your kingdom; they will give examples of your power. ✦ 12They will tell about your mighty deeds and about the majesty and glory of your reign. ✦ 13For your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. You rule throughout all generations. The Lord always keeps his promises; he is gracious in all he does. ✦ 14The Lord helps the fallen and lifts those bent beneath their loads. ✦ 15The eyes of all look to you in hope; you give them their food as they need it. ✦ 16When you open your hand, you satisfy the hunger and thirst of every living thing. ✦ 17The Lord is righteous in everything he does; he is filled with kindness. ✦ 18The Lord is close to all who call on him, yes, to all who call on him in truth. ✦ 19He grants the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cries for help and rescues them. ✦ 20The Lord protects all those who love him, but he destroys the wicked. ✦ 21I will praise the Lord, and may everyone on earth bless his holy name forever and ever. ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.
