- In God, whose word I praise—
in God I trust and am not afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me? - Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth. - For great is your love, reaching to the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies. - But I will sing of your strength,
in the morning I will sing of your love;
for you are my fortress,
my refuge in times of trouble. - Truly my soul finds rest in God;
my salvation comes from him. - Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will never be shaken. - Yes, my soul, find rest in God;
my hope comes from him. - Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. - My salvation and my honor depend on God;
he is my mighty rock, my refuge. - “And with you, Lord, is unfailing love”;
and, “You reward everyone
according to what they have done.” - You, God, are my God,
earnestly I seek you;
I thirst for you,
my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
where there is no water. - Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands. - For you, God, tested us;
you refined us like silver. - I cried out to him with my mouth;
his praise was on my tongue. - May God bless us still,
so that all the ends of the earth will fear him. - Sing to God, sing in praise of his name,
extol him who rides on the clouds;
rejoice before him—his name is the Lord.
A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,
is God in his holy dwelling. - God sets the lonely in families,
he leads out the prisoners with singing;
but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land. - Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior,
who daily bears our burdens. - My mouth is filled with your praise,
declaring your splendor all day long. - My lips will shout for joy
when I sing praise to you—
I whom you have delivered. - Whom have I in heaven but you?
And earth has nothing I desire besides you. - My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever. - Help us, God our Savior,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us and forgive our sins
for your name’s sake. - Restore us, Lord God Almighty;
make your face shine on us,
that we may be saved. - Defend the weak and the fatherless;
uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.
