In Praise of God's Goodness
1 I will always thank the Lord;
I will never stop praising him.
2 I will praise him for what he has done;
may all who are oppressed listen and be glad!
3 Proclaim with me the Lord's greatness;
let us praise his name together!

Colossians-3-15
4 I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me;
he freed me from all my fears.
5 The oppressed look to him and are glad;
they will never be disappointed.
6 The helpless call to him, and he answers;
he saves them from all their troubles.
7 His angel guards those who honor the Lord
and rescues them from danger.

8 Find out for yourself how good the Lord is.
Happy are those who find safety with him.
9 Honor the Lord, all his people;
those who obey him have all they need.
10 Even lions go hungry for lack of food,
but those who obey the Lord lack nothing good.

11 Come, my young friends, and listen to me,
and I will teach you to honor the Lord.
12 Would you like to enjoy life?
Do you want long life and happiness?
13 Then keep from speaking evil
and from telling lies.
Matthew-5-9
14 Turn away from evil and do good;
strive for peace with all your heart.

15 The Lord watches over the righteous
and listens to their cries;
16 but he opposes those who do evil,
so that when they die, they are soon forgotten.
17 The righteous call to the Lord, and he listens;
he rescues them from all their troubles.
John-11-35
18 The Lord is near to those who are discouraged;
he saves those who have lost all hope.

19 Good people suffer many troubles,
but the Lord saves them from them all;
20 the Lord preserves them completely;
not one of their bones is broken.
21 Evil will kill the wicked;
those who hate the righteous will be punished.

22 The Lord will save his people;
those who go to him for protection will be spared.
1 A Psalme of Dauid, when he changed his behauiour before Abimelech, who droue him away, and he departed. I will alway giue thankes vnto the Lord: his praise shalbe in my mouth continually. 2 My soule shall glory in the Lord: the humble shall heare it, and be glad. 3 Praise ye the Lord with me, and let vs magnifie his Name together. 4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me: yea, he deliuered me out of all my feare. 5 They shall looke vnto him, and runne to him: and their faces shall not be ashamed, saying, 6 This poore man cryed, and the Lord heard him, and saued him out of all his troubles. 7 The Angel of the Lord pitcheth round about them, that feare him, and deliuereth them. 8 Taste ye and see, howe gratious the Lord is: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. 9 Feare the Lord, ye his Saintes: for nothing wanteth to them that feare him. 10 The lyons doe lacke and suffer hunger, but they, which seeke the Lord, shall want nothing that is good. 11 Come children, hearken vnto me: I will teache you the feare of the Lord. 12 What man is he, that desireth life, and loueth long dayes for to see good? 13 Keepe thy tongue from euill, and thy lips, that they speake no guile. 14 Eschewe euill and doe good: seeke peace and follow after it. 15 The eyes of the Lord are vpon the righteous, and his eares are open vnto their crie. 16 But the face of the Lord is against them that doe euill, to cut off their remembrance from the earth. 17 The righteous crie, and the Lord heareth them, and deliuereth them out of all their troubles. 18 The Lord is neere vnto them that are of a contrite heart, and will saue such as be afflicted in Spirite. 19 Great are the troubles of the righteous: but the Lord deliuereth him out of them all. 20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. 21 But malice shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous, shall perish. 22 The Lord redeemeth the soules of his seruants: and none, that trust in him, shall perish.
