I give You thanks, O Lord, with all my heart; I will sing Your praises before the gods. I bow before your holy Temple as I worship. I praise Your name for your unfailing love and and faithfulness; for Your promises are backed by all the honor of Your name. As soon as I pray, You answer me; You encourage me by giving me strength. (vv. 1-3, NLT)
Though I am surrounded by troubles, You will protect me from the anger of my enemies. You reach our Your hand, and the power of Your right hand saves me. The Lord will work out His plans for my life-for your faithful love, O Lord, endures forever. Don’t abandon me, for You made me. (vv. 7-8, NLT)
