“Stand up and bless the Lord your God
Forever and ever!

“Blessed be (A)Your glorious name,
Which is exalted above all blessing and praise!
(B)You alone are the Lord;
(C)You have made heaven,
(D)The heaven of heavens, with (E)all their host,
The earth and everything on it,
The seas and all that is in them,
And You (F)preserve them all.
The host of heaven worships You.
