The Easter Vigil in the Holy Night After the Fourth Reading

[Chorus]
G Bm7/F# Em C C/D C/G G
I will praise You, Lord, for You have rescued me

[Verse 1]
Em
I will extol You, O Lord, for you drew me clear
Am D
And did not let my enemies rejoice over me.
Em
O Lord, You brought me up from the netherworld;
Am D
You preserved me from among those going down into the pit.

[Verse 2]
Em
Sing praise to the Lord, you His faithful ones,
Am D
And give thanks to his holy name.
Em
For his anger lasts but a moment;
Am D
A lifetime, his good will.
Em
At nightfall, weeping enters in,
Am D
But with the dawn, rejoicing.

[Verse 3]
Em
Hear, O Lord, and have pity on me;
Am D
O Lord, be my helper.
Em
You changed my mourning into dancing;
Am D
O Lord, my God, forever will I give you thanks.
