Intro: Men should praise God for his glorious and gracious works.

2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

3 His work is honorable and glorious; and his righteousness endureth forever.

4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered; the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.

5 He hath given meat unto them that fear him; he will ever be mindful of his covenant.

9 He sent redemption unto his people; he hath commanded his covenant forever; holy and reverend is his name.

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do his commandments; his praise endureth forever.
