Leader I will exalt you, O LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me.

People O LORD, my God, I called to you for help and you healed me. Leader O LORD, you brought me up from the grave; you spared me from going down

into the pit. People Sing to the LORD, you saints of his; praise his holy name. ALL For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favour lasts a lifetime;

weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. Amen.
