Sing to God, sing in praise of his name,(A)
    extol him who rides on the clouds[a](B);
    rejoice before him—his name is the Lord.(C)
A father to the fatherless,(D) a defender of widows,(E)
    is God in his holy dwelling.(F)
God sets the lonely(G) in families,[b](H)
    he leads out the prisoners(I) with singing;
    but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.(J)

When you, God, went out(K) before your people,
    when you marched through the wilderness,[c](L)
