The Spirit of God has made me,And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

An Exuberant Declaration of FaithThe Lord is my light and my salvation;Whom shall I fear?The Lord is the strength of my life;Of whom shall I be afraid?

How can a young man cleanse his way?By taking heed according to Your word.

One thing I have desired of the Lord,That will I seek:That I may dwell in the house of the LordAll the days of my life,To behold the beauty of the Lord,And to inquire in His temple.

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.Praise the Lord!
