Praise from the Cloister Garden

"Bless the Lord, all you works of the Lord, Praise and exalt Him above all forever...

Let the earth bless the Lord, Praise and exalt Him above all forever.  Mountains and hills, bless the Lord.  Everything growing from the earth, bless the Lord...

O Israel, bless the Lord, Praise and exalt Him above all forever. Priests of the Lord, bless the Lord.  Spirits and souls of the just, bless the Lord.  Holy men of humble heart, bless the Lord...

Let us bless the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  Let us praise and exalt him above all forever.  Blessed are you, Lord, in the firmament of heaven.  Praiseworthy and glorious and exalted above all forever."  (from Daniel 3)
