Psalms

¹ God, you smiled on your good earth! You brought good times back to Jacob!

² you put their sins far out of sight.

³ you cooled your hot, righteous anger.

⁴ don't hold a grudge against us forever.

⁵ scowling and angry, year after year?

⁶ Then your people will laugh and sing!

⁷ Give us the salvation we need!

⁸ God's about to pronounce his people well, The holy people he loves so much, so they'll never again live like fools.

⁹ Our country is home base for Glory!

¹⁰ Right Living and Whole Living embrace and kiss!

¹¹ Right Living pours down from the skies!

¹² our land responds with Bounty and Blessing.

¹³ and clears a path for his passage.
