Psalm 34:2-3, 6-7, 18-19, 23
Lyrics:
The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
Blessed be the Lord.
I will bless the Lord at all times,
with praise ever in my mouth.
Let my soul glory in the Lord,
who will hear the cry of the poor.
The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
Blessed be the Lord.
Let the lowly hear and be glad:
the Lord listens to their pleas;
and to hearts broken God is near,
who will hear the cry of the poor.
The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
Blessed be the Lord.
Every spirit crushed God will save;
will be ransom for their lives;
will be safe shelter for their fears,
and will hear the cry of the poor.
The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
Blessed be the Lord.
We proclaim your greatness, O God,
your praise ever in our mouth;
every face brightened in your light,
for you hear the cry of the poor.
The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
Blessed be the Lord.
