The LORD is kind and merciful [Psalm 103: 1-2, 8, 13, 17-18]

Bless the LORD, my soul; all my being, bless his holy name! Bless the LORD, my soul; do not forget all the gifts of God. The LORD is kind and merciful.

Merciful and gracious is the LORD, slow to anger, abounding in kindness. As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on the faithful.

The LORD is kind and merciful.

But the LORD’S kindness is forever, toward the faithful from age to age. He favors the children’s children of those who keep his covenant, who take care to fulfill its precepts.

The LORD is kind and merciful.
