Leader: 4 Sing to the Lord, all you godly ones!
Praise his holy name.
5 For his anger lasts only a moment,
but his favor lasts a lifetime!
ALL: Weeping may last through the night,
but joy comes with the morning.
Leader: 6 When I was prosperous, I said,
“Nothing can stop me now!”
ALL: 7 Your favor, O Lord, made me as secure as a mountain.
Then you turned away from me, and I was shattered.
Leader: 8 I cried out to you, O Lord.
I begged the Lord for mercy, saying,
ALL: 9 “What will you gain if I die, if I sink into the grave?
Leader: Can my dust praise you? Can it tell of your faithfulness?
10 Hear me, Lord, and have mercy on me. Help me, O Lord.”
ALL: 11 You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing.
You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy,
12 that I might sing praises to you and not be silent.
O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever!
