To Your Name Give Glory (PSA 115:1-18)

[115:1] Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory, for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness!

[115:2] Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?”

[115:3] Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases.

[115:4] Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands.

[115:5] They have mouths, but do not speak; eyes, but do not see.

[115:6] They have ears, but do not hear; noses, but do not smell.

[115:7] They have hands, but do not feel; feet, but do not walk; and they do not make a sound in their throat.

[115:8] Those who make them become like them; so do all who trust in them.

[115:9] O Israel, trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield.

[115:10] O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield.

[115:11] You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield.

[115:12] The Lord has remembered us; he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;

[115:13] he will bless those who fear the Lord, both the small and the great.

[115:14] May the Lord give you increase, you and your children!

[115:15] May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth!

[115:16] The heavens are the Lord’s heavens, but the earth he has given to the children of man.

[115:17] The dead do not praise the Lord, nor do any who go down into silence.

[115:18] But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and forevermore. Praise the Lord!
