🎶 Lyrics (Based on Psalm 41:1–13)

Verse 1 (Psalm 41:1–3)

Blessed are those who care for the poor,

In trouble, the Lord opens the door.

He lifts me up when I’m weak and low,

On beds of pain, His healing flows.

Chorus (Psalm 41:3–4)

The Lord sustains me, day by day,

He restores my soul, lights my way.

Even when enemies surround,

In Your love, I’m safe and sound.

Verse 2 (Psalm 41:9–10)

Even a friend, trusted and near,

Turned away with words unclear.

But You, O Lord, uphold my heart,

Your mercy’s shield will never part.

Bridge (Psalm 41:11–13)

You uphold me for Your name’s sake,

I’ll praise You always, never break.

Forever in Your presence stand,

Held safely in Your mighty hand.

Final Chorus (Lifted)

The Lord sustains me, strong and true,

His faithful love forever new.

Through every trial, joy will rise,

In Your mercy, hope will shine.
