Psalms 104 — Context

They take what you give them; they are full of the good things which come from your open hand.

If your face is veiled, they are troubled; when you take away their breath, they come to an end, and go back to the dust.

If you send out your spirit, they are given life; you make new the face of the earth.

Let the glory of the Lord be for ever; let the Lord have joy in his works:

At whose look the earth is shaking; at whose touch the mountains send out smoke.

I will make songs to the Lord all my life; I will make melody to my God while I have my being.

Let my thoughts be sweet to him: I will be glad in the Lord.
