Psalm 103:1-5
The psalmist commands His own soul to bless the Lord by recalling His saving benefits, revealing that sustained worship is fueled by remembered grace.
1 Praise Yahweh, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name!
2 Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits,
3 who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases,
4 who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies,
5 who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
The psalmist commands his own soul to bless the LORD by recalling His saving benefits, revealing that sustained worship is fueled by remembered grace.
To summon the whole self into covenantal praise by intentionally remembering and rehearsing the LORD’s redemptive benefits.
