The Lord is my God,
I will exalt Him;
To honor and laud,
With all of my vim.

I will praise His name,
For what He has done;
And also proclaim,
All about His Son.

Plans have formed of old,
As faithful and sure;
For the Scriptures told,
Of righteous and pure.

He made the city,
A heap in ruin;
Once that was pretty,
Because of their sin.

The palace no more,
Never be rebuilt;
Since it an abhor,
For they had no quilt.

But the strong people,
Will glorify God;
Praise in the temple,
Confess being flawed.

For nations will fear,
God as a stronghold;
Fastness that is near,
To those who are old.

Of those in distress,
Sheltered from the storm;
To comfort and bless,
Covered to keep warm.

A shade from the heat,
That will always shield;
As to rest your feet,
From work in the field.

Heat for a dry place,
The shade from a cloud;
The Lord sheds His grace,
And quiets the crowd.
