- 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. - Turn us again to yourself, O Lord God of Heaven’s Armies.
Make your face shine down upon us.
Only then will we be saved. - Give justice to the poor and the orphan;
uphold the rights of the oppressed and the destitute. - A single day in your courts
is better than a thousand anywhere else!
I would rather be a gatekeeper in the house of my God
than live the good life in the homes of the wicked. - O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help. - Teach me your ways, O Lord,
that I may live according to your truth!
Grant me purity of heart,
so that I may honor you. - Before the mountains were born,
before you gave birth to the earth and the world,
from beginning to end, you are God. - For you, a thousand years are as a passing day,
as brief as a few night hours. - Teach us to realize the brevity of life,
so that we may grow in wisdom. - And may the Lord our God show us his approval
and make our efforts successful.
Yes, make our efforts successful! - Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
This I declare about the Lord:
He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;
he is my God, and I trust him. - He will cover you with his feathers.
He will shelter you with his wings.
His faithful promises are your armor and protection. - I cried out, “I am slipping!”
but your unfailing love, O Lord, supported me. - When doubts filled my mind,
your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer. - Come, let us worship and bow down.
Let us kneel before the Lord our maker. - You who love the Lord, hate evil!
He protects the lives of his godly people
and rescues them from the power of the wicked. - Let all that I am praise the Lord;
with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name. - The Lord is compassionate and merciful,
slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. - He has removed our sins as far from us
as the east is from the west. - The Lord is like a father to his children,
tender and compassionate to those who fear him. - But the love of the Lord remains forever
with those who fear him.
His salvation extends to the children’s children
of those who are faithful to his covenant,
of those who obey his commandments! - I will sing to the Lord as long as I live.
I will praise my God to my last breath! - Give thanks to the Lord and proclaim his greatness.
Let the whole world know what he has done. - Search for the Lord and for his strength;
continually seek him. - For he satisfies the thirsty
and fills the hungry with good things.
