1 A song of David. Lord, I praise you with all my heart. I sing songs of praise to you before the gods.
2 I bow down toward your holy Temple, and I praise your name for your love and loyalty. You are famous, and doing what you promised will make you even more famous!
3 When I called to you for help, you answered me and gave me strength.
4 Lord, all the kings on earth will praise you when they hear what you say.
5 They will sing about what the Lord has done, because the glory of the Lord is very great.
6 The Lord has the highest place above all others, but he still cares for the humble. Even from there, so high above, he knows what the proud do.
7 If I am in trouble, you keep me alive. If my enemies are angry, you save me from them.
8 Lord, I know you will do what you have promised. Lord, your faithful love will last forever. You are the one who made us, so don't leave us!
