God’s Faithfulness to Israel

O give thanks to the Lord; call on his name;
    make known his deeds among the peoples.(A)
Sing to him, sing praises to him;
    tell of all his wonderful works.(B)
Glory in his holy name;
    let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.(C)
Seek the Lord and his strength;
    seek his presence continually.(D)
Remember the wonderful works he has done,
    his miracles and the judgments he has uttered,(E)
O offspring of his servant Abraham,[a]
    children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
