Psalm 138: 1-3, 7-8
With all my heart, I give You thanks, O LORD.
Before the heavenly beings, I sing Your praise.
I bow down to You toward Your holy temple
and give thanks to You
for the love and truth in Your name –
Your name,
Your word
above all!
On the day I call,
You answer me
and increase the strength
in my soul.
Even if I find myself in the middle of trouble,
You protect me from the anger of others.
Your stretch out Your hand to me,
and the rightness of Your hand delivers me.
The Lord will fulfill
His purposes for me,
for Your steadfast love endures forever, O LORD,
and You will not let go
the work placed in Your hands.
