PSALM 137
Response:
On the day I called, you answered me, O Lord.
Verse 1:
I thank you, Lord, with all my heart.
You have heard the words of my mouth.
Before the angels I will bless you.
I will adore before your holy temple
Verse 2:
I thank you for your faithfulness and love
which excel all we ever knew of you.
On the day I called, you answered;
you increased the strength of my soul.
Verse 3:
The Lord is high yet he looks on the lowly
and the haughty he knows from afar.
Though I walk in the midst of affliction
you give me life and frustrate my foes.
Verse 4:
You stretch out your hand and save me,
your hand will do all things for me.
Your love, O Lord, is eternal,
discard not the work of your hands.
