Praise to the Lord

25 O Lord, You are my God.
    I will exalt You, I will praise Your name,
for You have done wonderful things;
    Your plans formed of old
    are faithfulness and truth.
For You have made a city into a heap,
    a fortified city into a ruin;
a palace of strangers is a city no longer;
    it shall never be built.
Therefore a strong people shall glorify You;
    cities of ruthless nations shall fear You.
