Truly my soul finds rest in God
My salvation comes from Him
Truly He is my rock and my salvation
He is my fortress, I will never be shaken

How long will you assault me?
Would all of you throw me down—
This leaning wall, this tottering fence?
You will hear from me no sound

Surely they intend to topple me
From my lofty place
They take delight in lies
With their mouths they bless

Yes, with their mouths they bless
But in their hearts they curse
Yes, my soul, find rest in God
My hope from Him comes

Truly He is my rock and my salvation
He is my fortress, I will not be shaken
My salvation and my honor depend on God
He is my mighty rock, my refuge. I will not be mistaken

Trust in Him at all times, you people
Pour out your hearts to him
For God is our refuge
I will always praise Him

Surely the lowborn are but a breath
The highborn are but a lie
If weighed on a balance, they are nothing
Together they are only a breath, a blink of an eye

Do not trust in extortion
Or put vain hope in stolen goods
Though your riches increase
Do not set your heart on them or you’ll lose

One thing God has spoken
Two things I have heard:
“With you, Lord, is unfailing love
And Power belongs to you, God”

and, “You reward everyone
According to what they have done
Reward is always granted
And without a reward is no one”
