The Lord an Abundant Helper.

^(a)Praise ^(b)the Lord!
^(A)Praise the Lord, O my soul!

^{Tools
2}

I will praise the Lord ^(B)while I live;
I will ^(C)sing praises to my God while I have my being.

^{Tools
3}

^(D)Do not trust in princes,
In ^(c)mortal ^(E)man, in whom there is ^(F)no salvation.

^{Tools
4}

His ^(G)spirit departs, he ^(H)returns to ^(d)the earth;
In that very day his ^(I)thoughts perish.

^{Tools
5}

How ^(J)blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
Whose ^(K)hope is in the Lord his God,

^{Tools
6}

Who ^(L)made heaven and earth,
The ^(M)sea and all that is in them;
Who ^(N)keeps ^(e)faith forever;

^{Tools
7}

Who ^(O)executes justice for the oppressed;
Who ^(P)gives food to the hungry.
The Lord ^(Q)sets the prisoners free.

^{Tools
8}

The Lord ^(R)opens the eyes of the blind;
The Lord ^(S)raises up those who are bowed down;
The Lord ^(T)loves the righteous;

^{Tools
9}

The Lord ^(f)^(U)protects the ^(g)strangers;
He ^(h)^(V)supports the fatherless and the widow,
But He ⁽ⁱ⁾thwarts ^(W)the way of the wicked.

^{Tools

The Lord will ^(X)reign forever,
Your God, O Zion, to all generations.
^(j)Praise ^(k)the Lord!
