Sing hallelujah! Come, our great Redeemer praise. I will sing the glorious praises of my God through all my days. Put no confidence in princes, nor on human help depend. They shall die, to dust returning; all their thoughts and plans shall end. 2 Happy are the ones professing Jacob's God to be their aid. They are blest whose hope of blessing on the LORD their God is stayed. Heaven and earth the LORD created, seas and all that they contain. He delivers from oppression; righteousness he will maintain. 3 Food he daily gives the hungry, sets the mourning prisoner free, raises those bowed down with anguish, makes the sightless eyes to see. God our Savior loves the righteous, and the stranger he befriends, helps the orphan and the widow, judgment on the wicked sends. 4 Praise the LORD! Sing hallelujah! Come, our great Redeemer praise. I will sing the glorious praises of my God through all my days. Over all God reigns forever; through all ages he is King. Unto him, your God, O Zion, joyful hallelujahs sing. Scripture: Psalm 146 Used With Tune: [Praise the LORD, sing hallelujah] Text Sources: Psalter, 1887, alt.

The man who minds religion now, And humbly walk with God below: 2 Whose hands are pure, whose heart is clean; Whose lips shall speak the things they mean; No slanders dwell upon his tongue; He hates to do his neighbour wrong. 3 [Scarce will he trust an ill report, Nor vent it to his neighbour's hurt: Sinners of state he can despise, But saints are honour'd in his eyes.] 4 [Firm to his word he ever stood, And always makes his promise good Nor dares to change the thing he swears, Whatever pain or loss he bears.] 5 [He never deals in bribing gold, And mourns that justice should be sold: While others scorn and wrong the poor, Sweet charity attends his door.] 6 He loves his enemies, and prays For those that curse him to his face; And doth to all men still the same That he would hope or wish from them. 7 Yet, when his holiest works are done, His soul depends on grace alone: This is the man thy face shall see, And dwell for ever, Lord, with thee.

Hopeless, numbed by fear, I ponder all your care; thirsty as parched earth, I lift my hands in prayer. 3 Answer soon, O God; my spirit faints in me; do not hide your face, or I will cease to be. When the morning dawns, make known your love anew; show me how to walk, for I will trust in you. 4 Keep me safe, O God, and help me learn your will; let your Spirit lead through level pathways still. For your great Name’s sake, my griefs and fears dispel; free me from my foes, that I may serve you well. Scripture: Psalm 143 Used With Tune: HYMN CHANT
