12TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME (YEAR B)

PSALM 106

 

 

Response: 
O give thanks to the Lord, for his love endures forever.

Verse 1:
Some sailed to the sea in ships
to trade on the mighty waters.
These men have seen the Lord’s deeds,
the wonders he does in the deep.

Verse 2:
For he spoke; he summoned the gale.
Tossing the waves of the sea
up to heaven and back into the deep;
their soul melted away in their distress.

Verse 3:
Then they cried to the Lord in their need
and he rescued them from their distress.
He stilled the storm to a whisper:
all the waves of the sea were hushed.

Verse 4:
They rejoiced because of the calm
and he led them to the haven they desired.
Let them thank the Lord for his love,
the wonders he does for men.
