1 O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; ♦︎
his mercy endures for ever.
2 Let Israel now proclaim, ♦︎
His mercy endures for ever.
3 Let the house of Aaron now proclaim, ♦︎
His mercy endures for ever.
4 Let those who fear the Lord proclaim, ♦︎
His mercy endures for ever.
5 In my constraint I called to the Lord; ♦︎
the Lord answered and set me free.
6 The Lord is at my side; I will not fear; ♦︎
what can flesh do to me?
7 With the Lord at my side as my saviour, ♦︎
I shall see the downfall of my enemies.
8 It is better to take refuge in the Lord ♦︎
than to put any confidence in flesh.
9 It is better to take refuge in the Lord ♦︎
than to put any confidence in princes.
