MESSAGE ~ Rev. Thomas Walters

- Ruling Your Soul -

Psalm 104: 1-13

1 Bless the Lord, O my soul.

O Lord my God, you are very great.

You are clothed with honor and majesty,

2 wrapped in light as with a garment.

You stretch out the heavens like a tent;

3 you set the beams of your[a] chambers on the waters;

you make the clouds your[b] chariot;

you ride on the wings of the wind;

4 you make the winds your[c] messengers,

fire and flame your[d] ministers.

5 You set the earth on its foundations,

so that it shall never be shaken.

6 You cover it with the deep as with a garment;

the waters stood above the mountains.

7 At your rebuke they flee;

at the sound of your thunder they take to flight.

8 They rose up to the mountains, ran down to the valleys,

to the place that you appointed for them.

9 You set a boundary that they may not pass,

so that they might not again cover the earth.

10 You make springs gush forth in the valleys;

they flow between the hills,

11 giving drink to every wild animal;

the wild asses quench their thirst.

12 By the streams[e] the birds of the air have their habitation;

they sing among the branches.

13 From your lofty abode you water the mountains;

the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.
