1 My heart is firmly fixed;
to God my song I raise.
Awake, O harp, in joyful strains;
awake, my soul, to praise.
2 Among the nations, LORD,
to you my song will rise.
Your faithfulness outshines the heavens,
your mercies reach the skies.
3 How great your love, O LORD:
we praise your matchless worth.
Your glory be exalted high
and cover all the earth.
4 Stretch forth your mighty hand
in answer to our prayer,
and let your own beloved ones
your great salvation share.
5 God speaks: ""All lands are mine,
to serve me and obey;
my people and their foes will serve
my glory day by day.""
6 O who will lead us on
in triumph on this day?
LORD, why do you reject your own
and turn your face away?
7 An army's help is vain;
to God for help we plead.
With God we shall do valiantly;
with God we shall succeed.
