1. O GOD, my heart is fixed (steadfast, in the confidence of faith); I will sing, yes, I will sing praises, even with my glory [all the faculties and powers of one created in Your image]!
2. Awake, harp and lyre; I myself will wake very early–I will waken the dawn!
3. I will praise and give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples; and I will sing praises unto You among the nations.
4. For Your mercy and loving-kindness are great and high as the heavens! Your truth and faithfulness reach to the skies! [Ps. 57:7-11.]
5. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens, and let Your glory be over all the earth.
