All within me bless the Lord,
All within me bless His holy name.
(Bless the Lord, O my soul, all within me, bless His holy name...)
Bless the Lord, O bless His holy name.

O hear, you righteous, know that the Lord is good.
With truth, with hope, He crowns with hope and truth.

God the Lord is gracious, the same forever.
The Lord our God loves, He loves His own.

Those who know the Lord, they claim His everpresent help.
O bless the Lord, O all within me bless His holy name.
O bless the Lord, my soul, O bless His holy name.

Translation / lyrics in Chinese: 讚美卡農曲

我的心哪　讚美主
我的靈哪　讚美主聖名
(讚美主 我的心 我的靈哪　讚美主聖名...)
讚美主　哦　讚美主聖名

請聽　義人哪　當知道主美善
真理　盼望　做我們的冠冕

耶和華有恩惠　祂不會改變
主愛我到底　主愛到底

認識主的人　要見證主隨時幫助
哦　讚美主　哦　全身全心讚美主聖名
哦　讚美主　我心靈　哦　讚美主聖名

Translation in Spanish: Canon de Alabanza

Todo mi ser bendiga al Señor,
Todo mi ser bendiga Su santo Nombre.
(Bendice al Señor, oh alma mía, todo mi ser bendiga Su santo Nombre ... )
Bendice al Señor, oh bendice Su santo Nombre.

Oh justos, escuchad, sabed que el Señor es bueno.
Con verdad, con esperanza, Él nos corona con esperanza y verdad.

El Señor Dios es misericordioso, el Mismo por siempre.
El Señor nuestro Dios nos ama, El ama a los suyos.

Los que conocen al Señor claman por Su permanente ayuda.
Bendice al Señor, oh todo mi ser bendiga Su santo Nombre.
Bendice al Señor, alma mía, oh bendice Su santo Nombre.
