1. THE CORDS OF THE WICKED

They have greatly oppressed me from my youth
But they have not gained the victory over me

The Lord is righteous, he has cut me free
From the cords of the wicked


2. OUR HELP

If the Lord had not been on our side
When people attacked us

They would have swallowed us alive
When their anger flared against us

The flood would have engulfed us
The torrent would have swept over us

The raging waters
Would have swept us away

Praise be to the Lord
Who has not let us be torn by their teeth
We have escaped like a bird from the fowler’s snare
The snare has been broken and we have escaped

Our help is in
The name of the Lord

The Maker
Of heaven and earth

Praise be to the Lord
Who has not let us be torn by their teeth
Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion
Which cannot be shaken but endures forever


3. NEM SZUNNYAD ÉS NEM ALSZIK

Szemeimet a hegyekre emelem
Onnan jön az én segítségem
Az én segítségem az Úrtól van
Aki teremtette az eget és földet

Nem engedi, hogy lábad inogjon
Nem szunnyad és nem alszik
A te õrizõd

Az Úr a te õrizõd
Az Úr az árnyékod jobbkezed felõl
Nappal a nap meg nem szúr téged
Sem éjjel a hold

Az Úr megõriz
Minden gonosztól
Megõrzi a te lelkedet

5. OUT OF THE DEPTHS

Out of the depths
I cry to you, Lord
Lord, hear my voice

Let your ears
Be attentive
To my cry
For mercy

I wait for the Lord
My whole being waits
And in his word
I put my hope

I wait for the Lord
More than watchmen wait for the morning

If you, Lord
Kept a record of sins
Lord, who could stand?

I wait for the Lord
My whole being waits
And in his word
I put my hope

I wait for the Lord
My whole being waits
And in his word
I put my hope

I wait for the Lord
More than watchmen wait for the morning

But with you
There is forgiveness
So that we can
With reverence, serve you

With the Lord
Is unfailing love
And with him is
Full redemption

He himself
Will redeem
His people
From all their sins


6. BURNING COALS

I call on the Lord in my distress
I call on the Lord in my distress
And he answers me

Save me, Lord
From lying lips
Save me, Lord
From deceitful tongues

Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek
That I live among the tents of Kedar!

Too long have I lived
Among those who hate peace
I am for peace
But when I speak, they are for war

What will he do to you
And what more besides
You deceitful tongue?

He will punish you
With a warrior’s sharp arrows
With burning coals
Of the broom bush

Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek
That I live among the tents of Kedar!

Too long have I lived
Among those who hate peace
I am for peace
But when I speak, they are for war

Too long have I lived
Among those who hate peace
I am for peace
But when I speak, they are for war


7. ENTHRONED IN HEAVEN

As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master
So our eyes look to the Lord our God, till he shows us his mercy

I lift up my eyes to you
To you who sit enthroned in heaven

As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master
So our eyes look to the Lord our God, till he shows us his mercy

I lift up my eyes to you
To you who sit enthroned in heaven

Have mercy on us, Lord
Have mercy on us
Have mercy on us, Lord
Have mercy on us

For we have endured no end of contempt from the proud
We have endured no end of ridicule from the arrogant

I lift up my eyes to you
To you who sit enthroned in heaven

Have mercy on us, Lord
Have mercy on us
Have mercy on us, Lord
Have mercy on us


8. IN VAIN YOU RISE

Unless the Lord builds the house
The builders labor in vain
Unless the Lord watches over the city
The guards stand watch in vain

In vain you rise early
And stay up late
Toiling for food to eat
For he grants sleep to those he loves

Blessed are all
Who fear the Lord
Who walk in
Obedience to him

You will eat the fruit of your labor
Blessings and prosperity will be yours
Yes, this will be the blessing
For the man who fears the Lord

Unless the Lord builds the house
The builders labor in vain
Unless the Lord watches over the city
The guards stand watch in vain

In vain you rise early
And stay up late
Toiling for food to eat
For he grants sleep to those he loves

Blessed are all
Who fear the Lord
Who walk in
Obedience to him

You will eat the fruit of your labor
Blessings and prosperity will be yours
Yes, this will be the blessing
For the man who fears the Lord

10. EVEN LIFE FOREVERMORE

My heart is not proud, Lord
My eyes are not haughty
I do not concern myself with
Matters too wonderful for me

But I have calmed and
Quieted myself
I am like a weaned child
I am content

Put your hope in the Lord
Both now and forevermore
Put your hope in the Lord
Both now and forevermore

My heart is not proud, Lord
My eyes are not haughty
I do not concern myself with
Matters too wonderful for me

But I have calmed and
Quieted myself
I am like a weaned child
I am content

Put your hope in the Lord
Both now and forevermore
Put your hope in the Lord
Both now and forevermore

How good and pleasant it is
When God’s people live together in unity!

It is like precious oil
Poured on the head

For there the Lord bestows His blessing
Even life forevermore

For there the Lord bestows His blessing
Even life forevermore
