Since Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips will praise You.
Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
So will I bless You while I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name.
So will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
So I will bless you as long as I’m alive; I will lift up my hands in your name.
For they have sharpened their tongues like a sword; they have formed their bow into a bitter thing,
For they have whetted their tongues like a sword; they have bent their bow a bitter thing,
I will sing to Adonai as long as I live! I will sing praise to my God yet again!
Lift up your hands to the Sanctuary and bless Adonai.
Hear the sound of my pleas, when I cry to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy Sanctuary.
The mountains saw You and writhe. A downpour of water overflows. The deep gives its voice— it lifts up hands high.
