“Praise ye the LORD: For it is good to sing praises unto our God; For it is pleasant; and praise is comely. The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: He gathereth together the outcasts of Israel. He healeth the broken in heart, And bindeth up their wounds. He telleth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names.
