The LORD Exalts the Humble

(1 Samuel 1:1–8)

Hallelujah

Give praise, O servants of the LORD;

praise the name of the LORD.

2 

Blessed be the name of the LORD

both now and forevermore

3 

From where the sun rises to where it sets

the name of the LORD [is] praised.

4 

The LORD is exalted over all the nations,

His glory above the heavens.

5 

Who is like the LORD our God,

the One enthroned on high?

6 

He humbles Himself to behold

the heavens and the earth.

7 

He raises the poor from the dust

and lifts the needy from the dump

8 

to seat them with nobles,

with the princes of His people.

9 

He settles the barren woman in her home

as a joyful mother to her children.

Hallelujah
