The Easter Vigil in the Holy Night After the First Reading

[Chorus]
D G/D D Bm Bm/A G Asus4 A7 D
Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth.

[Verse 1]
D A/C#
Bless the Lord, O my soul!
G/B A
O Lord, my God, you are great indeed!
D A/C#
You are clothed with majesty and glory,
G/B A
Robed in light as with a cloak.

[Verse 2]
D A/C#
You fixed the earth upon its foundation,
G/B A
Not to be moved forever;
D A/C#
With the ocean, as with a garment, you covered it;
G/B A
Above the mountains the waters stood.

[Verse 3]
D A/C#
You send forth springs into the watercourses
G/B A
That wind among the mountains.
D A/C#
Beside them the birds of heaven dwell;
G/B A
From among the branches they send forth their song.

[Verse 4]
D A/C#
You water the mountains from you palace;
G/B A
The earth is replete with the fruit of your works.
D A/C#
You raise grass for the cattle, and vegetation for man’s use,
G/B A
Producing bread from the earth.

[Verse 5]
D A/C#
How manifold are your works, O Lord!
G/B A
In wisdom you have wrought them all–
D A/C#
The earth is full of your creatures.
G/B A
Bless the Lord, O my soul!
