1 Lord, you are my God;I will honor you and praise your name.You have done amazing things;you have faithfully carried outthe plans you made long ago.
2 You have turned cities into ruinsand destroyed their fortifications.The palaces which our enemies builtare gone forever.
3 The people of powerful nations will praise you;you will be feared in the cities of cruel nations.
4 The poor and the helpless have fled to youand have been safe in times of trouble.You give them shelter from stormsand shade from the burning heat.Cruel enemies attack like a winter storm,
