Thanksgiving for the LORD'S Favor.

^1 (C1)I will give You thanks with all my heart;
I sing praises to You before the pagan ^(C2)gods.

² I will bow down in worship ^(C1)toward Your holy temple
And ^(C2)give thanks to Your name for Your lovingkindness and Your truth;
For You have ^(C3)magnified Your word together with Your name.

³ On the day I ^(C1)called, You answered me;
And You made me bold and confident with renewed ^(C2)strength in my life.

^4 (C1)All the kings of the land will give thanks and praise You, O LORD,
When they have heard of the promises of Your mouth which were fulfilled.

⁵ Yes, they will ^(C1)sing of the ways of the LORD joyfully celebrating His wonderful acts,
For ^(C2)great is the glory and majesty of the LORD.

^6 (C1)Though the LORD is exalted,
He ^(C2)regards the lowly and invites them into His fellowship;
But the ^(C3)proud and haughty He knows from a distance. ^(VR1)

⁷ Though I ^(C1)walk in the midst of trouble, You will ^(C2)revive me;
You will ^(C3)stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies,
And Your right hand will ^(C4)save me. ^(VR1)

⁸ The LORD will ^(C1)accomplish that which concerns me;
Your unwavering ^(C2)lovingkindness, O LORD, endures forever—
^(C3)Do not abandon the ^(C4)works of Your own hands. ^(VR1)
