Psalm 46

by Clément Tendo

Leader: ¹ God is our refuge and strength, 

an ever-present help in trouble. 

ALL: ² Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way 

and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, 

Leader: ⁴ There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, 

the holy place where the Most High dwells. 

ALL: ⁵ God is within her, she will not fall; 

God will help her at break of day. 

Leader: ⁶ Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; 

he lifts his voice, the earth melts. 

ALL: ⁷ The Lord Almighty is with us; 

the God of Jacob is our fortress. 

Leader: ¹⁰ He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; 

I will be exalted among the nations, 

I will be exalted in the earth.” 

ALL: ¹¹ The Lord Almighty is with us; 

the God of Jacob is our fortress!
