Illustration for Psalm 113: Praise the LORD's Name

Psalm 113

Praise the LORD's Name

Praise God's name from the rising of the sun to its setting! God sits high above all nations and stoops down to look at the world. He lifts up the poor from the dust and gives a home to the lonely. What an amazing, humble, caring God!

  1. 1Hallelujah! Praise the LORD, O servants of the LORD; praise the name of the LORD.
  2. 2Blessed be the name of the LORD, both now and forevermore.
  3. 3From the rising of the sun to its setting, let the name of the LORD be praised.
  4. 4The LORD is exalted above all the nations, His glory above the heavens.
  5. 5Who is like the LORD our God, who is enthroned on high,
  6. 6who stoops down to look on the heavens and the earth?
  7. 7He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap;
  8. 8He seats them with princes, with the princes of His people.
  9. 9He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother of children. Hallelujah!
