Hope—The False and The True The Rev. Scott Bailey

Psalm 146 (ACNA BCP 2019)

1  Praise the LORD, O my soul;
      while I live I will praise the LORD.
2  Indeed, as long as I have my being,
      I will sing praises unto my God.
3  Put not your trust in princes, nor in any child of man,
      for there is no help in them.
4  For when one breathes his last, he shall return again to the earth,
      and in that day all his thoughts perish.
5  Blessed is the one who has the God of Jacob for his help
      and whose hope is in the LORD his God,
6  Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is therein;
      who keeps his promise for ever;
7  Who does right to those who suffer wrong;
      and who feeds the hungry.
8  The LORD sets prisoners free;
      the LORD gives sight to the blind.
9  The LORD helps those who have fallen;
      the LORD loves the righteous.
10 The LORD cares for the strangers in the land; he defends the fatherless and widow;
      but the way of the ungodly he makes crooked.
11 The LORD shall be King for evermore,
      even your God, O Zion, throughout all generations. Praise the LORD.
