A Song of Praise to God

25 Lord, you are my God.
    I honor you and praise you,
because you have done amazing things.
    You have always done what you said you would do;
    you have done what you planned long ago.
You have made the city a pile of rocks
    and have destroyed her walls.
The city our enemies built with strong walls is gone;
    it will never be built again.
People from powerful nations will honor you;
    cruel people from strong cities will fear you.

Therefore strong peoples will honor you;(K)
