a portrait of feminine grace

my heart rejoices in the Lord!

Oh, how the Lord has blessed me!

NOw i have an answer for my enemies,

as i delight in your deliverance.

No one is holy like the Lord!

There is no one besides you:

there is no Rock like our God...

For all the earth is the Lord's,

and he has set the world in order.

He will protect his godly ones,

but the wicked will perish in darkness.

No one will succeed by strength alone.
