Je louerai l’Eternel

Alabaré al Eterno / I will praise the Eternal

1. Je louerai l’Eternel de tout mon cœur,
 Je raconterai toutes tes merveilles,
 Je chanterai ton nom.
 Je louerai l’Eternel de tout mon cœur,
 Je ferai de toi le sujet de ma joie, Alléluia !

2. Dieu, l’Eternel, est Roi, il règne à jamais,
 Pour le jugement il dresse son trône,
 Il jugera la terre.
 Dieu l’Eternel est Roi, il règne à jamais,
 Le monde verra la force de son bras, Alléluia !

3. Dieu voit les opprimés, il est leur abri,
 Leur refuge au temps des grandes détresses,
 Son nom est leur salut.
 Dieu voit les opprimés, il est leur abri,
 Il sauve les siens, car il est le Dieu saint, Alléluia !


Escuché este hermoso himno por primera vez en Marsella cuando visitaba a los hermanos en la Iglesia de Cristo — Chapelle de Fuveau.

La Chorale Harmonie

I heard this song for the first time in Marsielle when I visited the brothers and sisters at the Église du Christ — Chapelle de Fuveau.

Let Me Live

May my cry come before you, Lord
Give me understanding according to your Word.
May my supplication come before you, Lord
Deliver according, according to your promise
And let me live.

May my lips overflow with praise
For You teach me, teach me your decrees.
May my tongue sing of your word,
For all of your commands
Are righteous, my Lord
And let me live.

Let me live, let me live that I may praise You
And may your laws sustain me,
I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Let me live.

May your hand be ready to help me.
O Lord, your precepts I have chosen.
I long for your salvation.
Lord, your law is my delight.
Let me live to praise You.
Let me live.

Let me live, let me live that I may praise You
And may your laws sustain me,
I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Let me live, let me live that I may praise You
And may your laws sustain me,
I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Let me live.

Seek you servant
I have surely not forgotten your command
O God, I know I love you
Seek you servant
I have surely not forgotten your command
O God, I know I love you, Lord

Let me live, let me live that I may praise You
And may your law sustain me,
I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Let me live.
