Hallelujah! We will praise the Lord as long as we live!
Happy are those who have the God of Israel as their
helper,
whose hope is in the Lord their God.
He is the one who made heaven and earth,
the sea, and everything in them.
Hallelujah! We will praise the Lord as long as we live!
He is the one who keeps every promise forever,
who gives justice to the oppressed,
and food to the hungry.
Hallelujah! We will praise the Lord as long as we live!
The Lord frees the prisoners.
The Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord lifts the burdens of those bent beneath their
loads.
The Lord loves the righteous.
Hallelujah! We will praise the Lord as long as we live!
~ Psalm 146:2a, 5-8
