118 Song of Victory

1 O giue thankes vnto the Lord, for hee is good: because his mercie endureth for euer.

2 Let Israel now say: that his mercy endureth for euer.

3 Let the house of Aaron now say: that his mercy endureth for euer.

4 Let them now that feare the Lord, say: that his mercy endureth for euer.

5 I called vpon the Lord in distresse: the Lord answered me, and set me in a large place.

6 The Lord is on my side, I will not feare: What can man doe vnto mee?

7 The Lord taketh my part with them that helpe me: therfore shall I see my desire vpon them that hate me.

8 It is better to trust in the Lord: then to put confidence in man.

9 It is better to trust in the Lord: then to put confidence in Princes.

10 All nations compassed me about: but in the Name of the Lord, will I destroy them.

11 They compassed mee about, yea they compassed mee about: but in the Name of the Lord, I will destroy them.

12 They compassed mee about like Bees, they are quenched as the fire of thornes: for in the Name of the Lord I wil destroy them.

13 Thou hast thrust sore at mee that I might fall: but the Lord helped mee.

14 The Lord is my strength and song: and is become my saluation.

15 The voice of reioycing and saluation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the Right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.

16 The Right hand of the Lord is exalted: the Right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.

17 I shall not die, but liue: and declare the workes of the Lord.

18 The Lord hath chastened me sore: but he hath not giuen me ouer vnto death.

19 Open to mee the gates of righteousnesse: I will goe into them, and I will praise the Lord:

20 This gate of the Lord: into which the righteous shall enter.

21 I will praise thee, for thou hast heard mee: and art become my saluation.

22 The stone which the builders refused: is become the head stone of the corner.

23 This is the Lords doing: it is marueilous in our eyes.

24 This is the day which the Lord hath made: we will reioyce, and be glad in it.

25 Saue now, I beseech thee, O Lord: O Lord, I beseech thee, send now prosperitie.

26 Blessed be he that commeth in the Name of the Lord: wee haue blessed you out of the house of the Lord.

27 God is the Lord, which hath shewed vs light, bind the sacrifice with cords: euen vnto the horns of the Altar.

28 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee.

29 O giue thanks vnto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for euer.
