Rise Up, My Soul – Psalm 138

Verse 1

I give you thanks with all my heart
Before the gods, I sing your praise
I bow down towards your holy temple
And give thanks for all your ways

Chorus

Rise up, my soul, with gratefulness
Sing out to God with all your might
For He has shown His faithfulness
And keeps me safe both day and night

Verse 2

In the day when I cried out
You answered me with strength and might
You gave me courage and confidence
And put my enemies to flight

Chorus

Rise up, my soul, with gratefulness
Sing out to God with all your might
For He has shown His faithfulness
And keeps me safe both day and night

Verse 3

The Lord is high above the earth
But near to the humble and contrite
He looks upon the proud from afar
But gives grace to the lowly and right

Chorus

Rise up, my soul, with gratefulness
Sing out to God with all your might
For He has shown His faithfulness
And keeps me safe both day and night

Verse 4

Though I walk in the midst of trouble
You preserve my life and my soul
You stretch out your hand against my foes
And your right hand delivers me whole

Chorus

Rise up, my soul, with gratefulness
Sing out to God with all your might
For He has shown His faithfulness
And keeps me safe both day and night

Verse 5

The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me
Your steadfast love endures forever
Do not forsake the work of your hands
But complete it in me, now and forever

Chorus

Rise up, my soul, with gratefulness
Sing out to God with all your might
For He has shown His faithfulness
And keeps me safe both day and night

Outro

Rise up, my soul, rise up and sing
Of the goodness of our God and King
For He is faithful, He is true
And He will always see us through.
