| 1 | Alleluia. Praise the Lord, children. Praise the name of the Lord. |
| 2 | Blessed is the name of the Lord, from this time forward and even forever. |
| 3 | From the rising of the sun, even to its setting, praiseworthy is the name of the Lord. |
| 4 | The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory is high above the heavens. |
| 5 | Who is like the Lord, our God, who dwells on high, |
| 6 | and who gazes upon the humble things in heaven and on earth? |
| 7 | He lifts up the needy from the ground, and he urges the poor away from filth, |
| 8 | so that he may place him with the leaders, with the leaders of his people. |
| 9 | He causes a barren woman to live in a house, as the joyful mother of sons. |
