Lead sheet (piano/vocal chart) for the song “Psalm 118 (One Who Answers Me)” as performed by NAOBC Worship.
Verse 1
When trouble surrounded, I cried to the Lord.
He lifted me out of the dust.
My God, my Rock, my greatest defense
To Him ev’ry fear I entrust.
Verse 2
When terror oppressed me I looked to the King,
The Helper who stays by my side;
A refuge far better than strongholds of men.
His goodness I will testify.
Pre-chorus 1
How my soul will praise Him!
Chorus 1
My strength, my song; He is my salvation!
Rejoice and sing, the Lord has done mighty things!
Come lift Him high, oh my soul exalt Him;
He is my God, the One who answers me,
And I will praise His name!
Verse 3
Blessed is He who comes in Your Name,
The capstone who sets captives free,
The healer of souls and redeemer of men;
O Lord, how great are Your deeds!
Pre-chorus 2
Come behold His glory!
Bridge
To Him alone who does great wonders,
Spread the earth upon the waters;
Though each generation falters,
Still His love remains unaltered.
Brought His people from the darkness
Into Love’s eternal goodness.
When the skies proclaim His coming
I will see His face!
Chorus 2
My strength, my song; He is my salvation!
Rejoice and sing, the Lord has done mighty things!
Come lift Him high, Oh my soul exalt Him;
He is my God, the One who answers me!
My victory over ev’ry battle;
I sought the Lord, and He delivered me,
And I will praise His name!
Tag
And I will praise His name!
And I will praise His name!
And I will praise His name!
