The LORD Is on My Side

1Praise yee the Lorde, because he is good: for his mercie endureth for euer.

2Let Israel now say, That his mercy endureth for euer.

3Let the house of Aaron nowe say, That his mercy endureth for euer.

4Let them, that feare the Lorde, nowe say, That his mercie endureth for euer.

5I called vpon the Lord in trouble, & the Lord heard me, and set me at large.

6The Lorde is with mee: therefore I will not feare what man can doe vnto me.

7The Lorde is with mee among them that helpe me: therefore shall I see my desire vpon mine enemies.

8It is better to trust in the Lorde, then to haue confidence in man.

9It is better to trust in the Lorde, then to haue confidence in princes.

10All nations haue compassed me: but in the Name of the Lord shall I destroy them.

11They haue compassed mee, yea, they haue compassed mee: but in the Name of the Lorde I shall destroy them.

12They came about mee like bees, but they were quenched as a fire of thornes: for in the Name of the Lord I shall destroy them.

13Thou hast thrust sore at me, that I might fall: but the Lord hath holpen me.

14The Lord is my streength and song: for he hath beene my deliuerance.

15The voice of ioy and deliuerance shall be in the tabernacles of the righteous, saying, The right hand of the Lord hath done valiantly.

16The right hand of the Lord is exalted: the right hand of the Lord hath done valiantly.

17I shall not die, but liue, and declare the woorkes of the Lord.

18The Lorde hath chastened me sore, but he hath not deliuered me to death.

19Open ye vnto me the gates of righteousnes, that I may goe into them, & praise the Lord.

20This is the gate of the Lord: the righteous shall enter into it.

21I will praise thee: for thou hast heard mee, and hast beene my deliuerance.

22The stone, which the builders refused, is the head of the corner.

23This was the Lordes doing, and it is marueilous in our eyes.

24This is the day, which the Lord hath made: let vs reioyce and be glad in it.

25O Lord, I praie thee, saue now: O Lorde, I praie thee nowe giue prosperitie.

26Blessed be he, that commeth in the Name of the Lorde: wee haue blessed you out of the house of the Lord.

27The Lorde is mightie, and hath giuen vs light: binde the sacrifice with cordes vnto the hornes of the altar.

28Thou art my God, and I will praise thee, euen my God: therefore I will exalt thee.

29Praise ye the Lord, because he is good: for his mercie endureth for euer.
