One: O God, you are our God. We praise your name!
All: You are faithful and sure. You have done wonderful things!
One: You have been a refuge to the poor,
All: And a refuge to the needy in their distress.
One: You have been a shelter from the rainstorm,
All: And a shade from the heat.
One: You even wipe away the tears from our faces.
All: We praise your name!
