- But God is my helper.
The Lord keeps me alive! - Give your burdens to the Lord,
and he will take care of you.
He will not permit the godly to slip and fall. - But when I am afraid,
I will put my trust in you. - I praise God for what he has promised.
I trust in God, so why should I be afraid?
What can mere mortals do to me? - Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens!
May your glory shine over all the earth. - For your unfailing love is as high as the heavens.
Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. - But as for me, I will sing about your power.
Each morning I will sing with joy about your unfailing love.
For you have been my refuge,
a place of safety when I am in distress. - I wait quietly before God,
for my victory comes from him. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will never be shaken. - Let all that I am wait quietly before God,
for my hope is in him. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will not be shaken. - My victory and honor come from God alone.
He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me. - Unfailing love, O Lord, is yours.
Surely you repay all people
according to what they have done. - O God, you are my God;
I earnestly search for you.
My soul thirsts for you;
my whole body longs for you
in this parched and weary land
where there is no water. - Your unfailing love is better than life itself;
how I praise you!
I will praise you as long as I live,
lifting up my hands to you in prayer. - You have tested us, O God;
you have purified us like silver. - For I cried out to him for help,
praising him as I spoke. - Yes, God will bless us,
and people all over the world will fear him. - Sing praises to God and to his name!
Sing loud praises to him who rides the clouds.
His name is the Lord—
rejoice in his presence!
Father to the fatherless, defender of widows—
this is God, whose dwelling is holy. - God places the lonely in families;
he sets the prisoners free and gives them joy.
But he makes the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land. - Praise the Lord; praise God our savior!
For each day he carries us in his arms. - That is why I can never stop praising you;
I declare your glory all day long. - I will shout for joy and sing your praises,
for you have ransomed me. - Whom have I in heaven but you?
I desire you more than anything on earth. - My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak,
but God remains the strength of my heart;
he is mine forever.
Help us, O God of our salvation!
Help us for the glory of your name.
Save us and forgive our sins
for the honor of your name.For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you.Next verse!With image
