Rebirth of the Soul

This is resurrection from the dead.
This is freedom from captivity.
This is ascent to heaven.
This is the way up to the Father.

Therefore the prophet said:

My soul, praise the Lord,
all within me, praise his holy name.
My soul, praise God,
who forgave all your sins,
who healed all your sickness,
who freed your life from death,
who crowned you with mercy,
who satisfies your longing with good things.
Your youth will be renewed like an eagle's.
