"Forget not all His benefits"


 
from Psalm 103
****************
v 2 Forget not all His benefits
 
1. He Forgiveth all thine iniquities (v3)
 
2. Who healeth all thy diseases (v3) 
 
3. Who redeemeth thy life from destruction (v4)
 
4. Who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies (v4)
 
5. Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things so that thy youth be renewed like the eagle's (v5) - not the rock group The Eagles who reformed in the 90s
 
6. The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed (v6)
 
7. He made known His ways unto Moses, His acts unto the children of Israel (v7)
8. Th LORD is merciful and gracious (v8)
 
9. slow to anger (v8)
 
10. plenteous in mercy (v8)
 
11. He will not always chide (v9)
 
12. Neither will He keep His anger forever (v10)
 
13. He hath not dealt with us after our sins (v10)
 
14. nor rewarded us according to our iniquities (v10)
 
15. For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that fear Him. (v11)
 
16. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us. (v12)
17.  Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear Him. (v13)
 
18. For He knoweth our frame (v14)
 
19. He remembereth that we are dust (v14) - not stardust as some "theistic" evolutionist pointed out
 
20. But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear Him (v17)
21. And His righteousness unto children's children (v17)
 
22. To such as keep His covenant, and to those that remember His commandments to do them the LORD hath prepared His throne in the heavens (v18-19)
