Psalm 101(102):13-21 ©

The Lord looked down from heaven to the earth.

You, O Lord, will endure for ever

  and your name from age to age.

You will arise and have mercy on Zion:

  for this is the time to have mercy,

for your servants love her very stones,

  are moved with pity even for her dust.

The Lord looked down from heaven to the earth.

The nations shall fear the name of the Lord

  and all the earth’s kings your glory,

when the Lord shall build up Zion again

  and appear in all his glory.

Then he will turn to the prayers of the helpless;

  he will not despise their prayers.

The Lord looked down from heaven to the earth.

Let this be written for ages to come

  that a people yet unborn may praise the Lord;

for the Lord leaned down from his sanctuary on high.

  He looked down from heaven to the earth

that he might hear the groans of the prisoners

  and free those condemned to die.

The Lord looked down from heaven to the earth.
