August 5th :  Responsorial Psalm

Psalm 66(67):2-3,5,7-8 ©

Let the peoples praise you, O God, let all the peoples praise you.

O God, be gracious and bless us

  and let your face shed its light upon us.

So will your ways be known upon earth

  and all nations learn your saving help.

Let the peoples praise you, O God, let all the peoples praise you.

Let the nations be glad and exult

  for you rule the world with justice.

With fairness you rule the peoples,

  you guide the nations on earth.

Let the peoples praise you, O God, let all the peoples praise you.

The earth has yielded its fruit

  for God, our God, has blessed us.

May God still give us his blessing

  till the ends of the earth revere him.

Let the peoples praise you, O God, let all the peoples praise you.
