Leader: 1 I will praise the Lord at all times. 

I will constantly speak his praises.

let all who are helpless take heart.

let us exalt his name together.

He freed me from all my fears. 

Leader: 5 Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; 

no shadow of shame will darken their faces.

he saved me from all my troubles. 

Leader: 8 Taste and see that the Lord is good. 

Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!

for those who fear him will have all they need.

but those who trust in the Lord will lack no good thing.

let all who are helpless take heart.
