Psalm
R. Happy the people the Lord has chosen to be his own.
Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage. The Lord looks down from heaven; he sees all human beings. R.
Truly the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love, to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. R.
Our soul waits for the Lord; he is our help and shield. Our heart is glad in him, because we trust in his holy name. R.
