1: Hallelujah! O my soul, praise GOD!
2: All my life long I'll praise GOD, singing songs to my God as long as I live.
3: Don't put your life in the hands of experts who know nothing of life, of salvation life.
4: Mere humans don't have what it takes; when they die, their projects die with them.
5: Instead, get help from the God of Jacob, put your hope in GOD and know real blessing!
6: GOD made sky and soil, sea and all the fish in it. He always does what he says--
7: he defends the wronged, he feeds the hungry. GOD frees prisoners--
8: he gives sight to the blind, he lifts up the fallen. GOD loves good people,
9: protects strangers, takes the side of orphans and widows, but makes short work of the wicked.
10: GOD's in charge--always. Zion's God is God for good! Hallelujah! al
