1. I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart;before the ‘gods’ I will sing your praise.
2. I will bow down towards your holy templeand will praise your namefor your unfailing love and your faithfulness,for you have so exalted your solemn decreethat it surpasses your fame.
3. When I called, you answered me;you greatly emboldened me.
4. May all the kings of the earth praise you, Lord,when they hear what you have decreed.
5. May they sing of the ways of the Lord,for the glory of the Lord is great.
6. Though the Lord is exalted, he looks kindly on the lowly;though lofty, he sees them from afar.
