Mother’s Legacy

¹ Praise the LORD! Let my whole being praise the LORD! ² I will praise the LORD with all my life; I will sing praises to my God as long as I live. ³ Don’t trust leaders; don’t trust any human beings there’s no saving help with them! ⁴ Their breath leaves them, then they go back to the ground. On that very same day, their plans die too. ⁵ The person whose help is the God of Jacob the person whose hope rests on the LORD their God is truly happy! ⁶ God: the maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, God: who is faithful forever, ⁷ who gives justice to people who are oppressed, who gives bread to people who are starving! The LORD: who frees prisoners. ⁸ The LORD: who makes the blind see. The LORD: who straightens up those who are bent low. The LORD: who loves the righteous. ⁹ The LORD: who protects immigrants, who helps orphans and widows, but who makes the way of the wicked twist and turn! ¹⁰ The LORD will rule forever! Zion, your God will rule from one generation to the next! Praise the LORD!
