Psalm 144(145):1,9-13a 

The Lord is kind and full of compassion, slow to anger, abounding in love.

I will give you glory, O God my king,

  I will bless your name for ever.

How good is the Lord to all,

  compassionate to all his creatures.

The Lord is kind and full of compassion, slow to anger, abounding in love.

All your creatures shall thank you, O Lord,

  and your friends shall repeat their blessing.

They shall speak of the glory of your reign

  and declare your might, O God,

to make known to men your mighty deeds

  and the glorious splendour of your reign.

The Lord is kind and full of compassion, slow to anger, abounding in love.

Yours is an everlasting kingdom;

  your rule lasts from age to age.

The Lord is kind and full of compassion, slow to anger, abounding in love.
