Psalm

Chapter 117

Praise the LORD, all you Gentiles! Laud Him, all you peoples!

For His merciful kindness is great toward us, And the truth of the LORD endures forever. Praise the LORD!

A son of the Kingdom while yet on earth, thou didst ever yearn for the Son of God, crying out to Him: Be Thou my food and drink; be Thou the light of my soul; be Thou my surcease amid sorrows; be Thou life everlasting according to the resurrection, that I may supemely exalt Thee unto the ages!

— St. Tikhon of Zadonsk
