PSALM 113
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1Praise God: ye servants of the Lord,
O praise, the Lord's name praise.
2Yea, blessed be the name of God
from this time forth always.
3From rising sun to where it sets,
God's name is to be prais'd.
4Above all nations God is high,
'bove heav'ns his glory rais'd.
5Unto the Lord our God that dwells
on high, who can compare?
6Himself that humbleth things to see
in heav'n and earth that are.
7He from the dust doth raise the poor,
that very low doth lie;
And from the dunghill lifts the man
oppress'd with poverty;
8That he may highly him advance,
and with the princes set;
With those that of his people are
the chief, ev'n princes great.
9The barren woman house to keep
he maketh, and to be
Of sons a mother full of joy.
Praise to the Lord give ye.

Psalms 113
113
1Praise the Lord!
Servants of the Lord, praise him!
Praise the Lord’s name.
2May the Lord’s name be praised
now and forever.
3May the Lord’s name be praised
from where the sun rises to where it goes down.
4The Lord is higher than all nations.
His glory rises to the skies.
5There is no one like the Lord our God.
He sits on his throne high in heaven.
6He is so high above us that he must look down
to see the sky and the earth.
7He lifts the poor out of the dirt
and rescues beggars from the garbage dump.
8He puts them in important positions,
giving them a place among the leaders of his people.
9He gives children to the woman whose home is empty.
He makes her a happy mother.
Praise the Lord!
