Psalm 34: I Will Always Thank The Lord

For the past two weeks, in thinking about my renewed health over the past two years, I have been acutely aware of, and completely humbled by, the Greatness of our Lord, the generous Blessings He has bestowed upon me, and the Never-ending, Unconditional Love that He has for me and all of Creation. At this morning's Mass, I was extremely moved by the Responsorial Hymn "I Will Always Thank The Lord," which is based upon Psalm 34.

I will always thank the Lord; I will always praise God's name.
I will always thank the Lord; I will always praise God's name.

I will thank the Lord at all times,
I will always praise God's name.
My soul will boast of the Lord;
the poor will hear and be glad.

I will always thank the Lord; I will always praise God's name.
I will always thank the Lord; I will always praise God's name.

Join with me in the praise of the Lord;
together we shall sing God's praise.
I called, and God answered my plea;
from my fears the Lord set me free.

I will always thank the Lord; I will always praise God's name.
I will always thank the Lord; I will always praise God's name.

Look to God and shine with joy;
you will never be ashamed.
I begged God to listen to me;
God took my burdens away.

I will always thank the Lord; I will always praise God's name.
I will always thank the Lord; I will always praise God's name.
