WORDS OF LIFE

Psalm 124

1 If the Lord had not been on our side — let Israel say —

2 if the Lord had not been on our side when people attacked us,

3 they would have swallowed us alive when their anger flared against us;

4 the flood would have engulfed us,

the torrent would have swept over us,

5 the raging waters would have swept us away.

6 Praise be to the Lord,

who has not let us be torn by their teeth.

7 We have escaped like a bird from the fowler’s snare;

the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.

8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

— Psalm 124: 1-8
