SOCIAL JUSTICE Min: I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. Min: When my enemies turn back, They shall fall and perish at Your presence. For You have maintained my right and my cause; You sat on the throne judging in righteousness. Min: The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, A refuge in times of trouble. And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; For You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You. Min: Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion! Declare His deeds among the people. He does not forget the cry of the humble. Min: Arise, O Lord, Do not let man prevail; Let the nations be judged in Your sight. For the wicked boasts of his heart's desire; He blesses the greedy and renounces the Lord. Min: He sits in the lurking places of the villages; In the secret places he murders the innocent. His eyes are secretly fixed on the helpless. Min: He lies in wait secretly, as a lion in his den; He lies in wait to catch the poor; He catches the poor when he draws him into his net. Min: He has said in his heart, "God has forgotten; He hides His face; He will never see it." Arise, O Lord! O God, lift up Your hand! Do not forget the humble.
