1 I will praise you, Lord!You saved me from the graveand kept my enemiesfrom celebrating my death.
2 I prayed to you, Lord God,and you healed me,
3 saving me from deathand the grave.
4 Your faithful people, Lord,will praise you with songsand honor your holy name.
5 Your anger lasts a little while,but your kindness lastsfor a lifetime.At night we may cry,but when morning comeswe will celebrate.
6 I felt secure and thought,“I'll never be shaken!”
7 You, Lord, were my friend,and you made me strongas a mighty mountain.But when you hid your face,I was crushed.
