- My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all the day. - My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed. - Whom have I in heaven but you?
And there is nothing on earth that 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, O God of our salvation,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us, and atone for our sins,
for your name's sake! - Restore us, O Lord God of hosts!
Let your face shine, that we may be saved! - Give justice to the weak and the fatherless;
maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute. - For a day in your courts is better
than a thousand elsewhere.
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of wickedness. - For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving,
abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you. - Teach me your way, O Lord,
that I may walk in your truth;
unite my heart to fear your name. - Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever you had formed the earth and the world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God. - For a thousand years in your sight
are but as yesterday when it is past,
or as a watch in the night. - So teach us to number our days
that we may get a heart of wisdom. - Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,
and establish the work of our hands upon us;
yes, establish the work of our hands! - He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.” - He will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. - When I thought, “My foot slips,”
your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up. - When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul. - Oh come, let us worship and bow down;
let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! - O you who love the Lord, hate evil!
He preserves the lives of his saints;
he delivers them from the hand of the wicked. - Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name! - The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. - As far as the east is from the west,
so far does he remove our transgressions from us. - As a father shows compassion to his children,
so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him. - But the steadfast love of the Lord is
from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him,
and his righteousness to children's children,
to those who keep his covenant
and remember to do his commandments.
I will sing to the Lord as long as I live;
I will sing praise to my God while I have being.Deliver me, O Lord,
from lying lips,
from a deceitful tongue.
