A Thankful Heart
Of David.
1 I give You thanks with all my heart; before the gods I sing Your praises. 2 I bow down toward Your holy temple and give thanks to Your name for Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness; You have exalted Your name and Your word above all else. 3 On the day I called, You answered me; You emboldened me and strengthened my soul.a
4 All the kings of the earth will give You thanks, O LORD, when they hear the words of Your mouth. 5 They will sing of the ways of the LORD, for the glory of the LORD is great. 6 Though the LORD is on high, He attends to the lowly; but the proud He knows from afar.
7 If I walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve me from the anger of my foes; You extend Your hand, and Your right hand saves me. 8 The LORD will fulfill His purpose for me. O LORD, Your loving devotion endures forever— do not abandon the works of Your hands.
