What mighty praise, O God,
belongs to you in Zion.
We will fulfill our vows to you,
2
for you answer our prayers.
All of us must come to you.
3
Though we are overwhelmed by our sins,
you forgive them all.
4
What joy for those you choose to bring near,
those who live in your holy courts.
What festivities await us
inside your holy Temple.
5
You faithfully answer our prayers with awesome deeds,
O God our savior.
You are the hope of everyone on earth,
even those who sail on distant seas.
6
You formed the mountains by your power
and armed yourself with mighty strength.
7
You quieted the raging oceans
with their pounding waves
and silenced the shouting of the nations.
8
Those who live at the ends of the earth
stand in awe of your wonders.
From where the sun rises to where it sets,
you inspire shouts of joy.
