1	I give you thanks, O LORD, with my whole heart; before the gods I sing your praise;
2	I bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness; for you have exalted your name and your word above everything.
3	On the day I called, you answered me, you increased my strength of soul.
4	All the kings of the earth shall praise you, O LORD, for they have heard the words of your mouth.
5	They shall sing of the ways of the LORD, for great is the glory of the LORD.
6	For though the LORD is high, he regards the lowly; but the haughty he perceives from far away.
7	Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve me against the wrath of my enemies; you stretch out your hand, and your right hand delivers me.
8	The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.
