1I will sing of the graciousness of the Lord forever; 
To all generations I will make Your faithfulness known with my mouth. 
2 For I have said, “Graciousness will be built up forever; 
In the heavens You will establish Your faithfulness.” 

13 You have a strong arm; 
Your hand is mighty, Your right hand is exalted. 
14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; 
Mercy and truth go before You. 
15 Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! 
Lord, they walk in the light of Your face. 
16 In Your name they rejoice all the day, 
And by Your righteousness they are exalted. 
17 For You are the glory of their strength, 
And by Your favor our horn is exalted. 
18 For our shield belongs to the Lord, 
And our king to the Holy One of Israel.  Psalm 89 (NASB
