1131 Praise the Lord ! Praise , O servants of the Lord , Praise the name of the Lord . 2 Blessed be the name of the Lord From this time forth and forever e . 3 From the rising of the sun to its setting The name of the Lord is to be praised . 4 The Lord is high above all nations ; His glory is above the heavens . 5 Who is like the Lord our God , Who is enthroned on high , 6 Who humbles Himself to behold The things that are in heaven and in the earth ? 7 He raises the poor from the dust And lifts the needy from the ash heap , 8 To make them sit with princes , With the princes of His people . 9 He makes the barren woman abide in the house As a joyful mother of children . Praise the Lord !
