Psalm 151

Bless the work of my hands Oh! Lord Bring forth your divine design And dress me with a garment of light And leave my old robes behind Redeem me Oh Lord! Return my glory! So that I can give praises to the Father Holy! Holy! Holy! Bless the work of my hands Oh Lord! Let me prosper in the light Give me wisdom and wealth And an obedient wife So that my seeds may multiply And dominate this earth When you are close to the bosom of the Creator You can never lose Because the Lord does as he pleases And blesses whom he choose Show pity on your servant Oh Lord! Because your mercy is great The ruler of the Heaven and universe The architect of men’s’ fate By Your word it was created And by your spirit you sent life The Lord will save you from the sea of tribulation and strife But we are poor and needy Oh my God! Please do not cast us off And even though the road may be rough I will not lose God’s love The Lord is the keeper of my soul He is the Shepherd who keeps his sheep from going astray And protects his chosen ones every night and day The Lord is wonderful in every way And he shows mercy to those who fear him So I will abstain from sin As I draw myself closer to him Heathens wallow in a sea of mud Until their iniquities be found to be evil Because they disobeyed His word In the eyes of the world they prosper But they soon fade away and suffer The righteous will never lack because the Lord will provide I am shielded by the Lord So why should I hide? My enemies like a potsherd And are smashed by His rod He will protect those who obey his word And make the meek strong And the little one powerful I will praise your name in the presence of the throng I will praise your name because it is right And never wrong I will praise your name and make it my favourite song From everlasting to everlasting Amen! Amen!
