9c. O LORD Most High

1 O LORD Most High, with all my heart
Your wondrous works I will proclaim;
I will be glad and give You thanks,
and sing the praises of Your name.

2 The LORD, the everlasting King,
is seated on His judgment throne;
the righteous Judge of all the world
will make His perfect justice known.

3 Jehovah will a refuge prove,
a refuge strong for all oppressed,
a safe retreat, where weary souls
in troubled times may surely rest.

4 All they, O LORD, that know Your name
their confidence in You will place,
for You have ne’er forsaken them
who earnestly have sought Your face.

5 Sing praises to the LORD Most High,
to Him who does in Zion dwell;
declare His mighty deeds abroad,
His deeds among the nations tell.
