My vows I will pay before those who fear him. The poor shall eat and shall have their fill. They shall praise the Lord those who seek him. May their hearts live on forever and ever!

All the earth shall remember and return to the Lord, and families of the nations wor-ship before him. They shall worship him all the mighty of the earth; before him shall bow all who go down to the dust.

And my soul shall live for him, my descendants serve him. They shall tell of the Lord to generations yet to come, declare his saving justice to peoples yet unborn: "These are the things the Lord has done."
