1 Hallelujah!You servants of the Lord, praise him.Praise the name of the Lord.
2 Thank the name of the Lord now and forever.
3 From where the sun rises to where the sun sets,the name of the Lord should be praised.
4 The Lord is high above all the nations.His glory is above the heavens.
5 Who is like the Lord our God?He is seated on his high throne.
6 He bends down to look at heaven and earth.
7 He lifts the poor from the dust.He lifts the needy from a garbage heap.
8 He seats them with influential people,with the influential leaders of his people.
9 He makes a woman who is in a childless homea joyful mother.Hallelujah!
