| Verse | |
| 1. Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, O my soul! | |
| 2. While I live I will praise the Lord; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being. | |
| 3. Do not put your trust in princes, Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help. | |
| 4. His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; In that very day his plans perish. | |
| 5. Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the Lord his God, | |
| 6. Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps truth forever, | |
| 7. Who executes justice for the oppressed, Who gives food to the hungry. The Lord gives freedom to the prisoners. | |
| 8. The Lord opens the eyes of the blind; The Lord raises those who are bowed down; The Lord loves the righteous. | |
| 9. The Lord watches over the strangers; He relieves the fatherless and widow; But the way of the wicked He turns upside down. | |
| 10. The Lord shall reign forever-- Your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the Lord! |
