Praise Worship and Trust (Psalm 146:1-10) Those Whose Help Is The Lord

Psalm 146 New International Version (NIV)

Psalm 146

1 Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord, my soul.

2 I will praise the Lord all my life;
    I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.
3 Do not put your trust in princes,
    in human beings, who cannot save.
4 When their spirit departs, they return to the ground;
    on that very day their plans come to nothing.
5 Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob,
    whose hope is in the Lord their God.

6 He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them—he remains faithful forever.

7 He upholds the cause of the oppressed
    and gives food to the hungry.
The Lord sets prisoners free,
8 The Lord gives sight to the blind,
the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down,
    the Lord loves the righteous.
9 The Lord watches over the foreigner
    and sustains the fatherless and the widow,
    but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.

10 The Lord reigns forever,  your God, O Zion, for all generations.

Praise the Lord.
