| Catholic Mass Songs Lyrics |
Fr. John Foley, SJ
REF:
The Lord hears the cry of the poor. Blessed be the Lord!
1. I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise ever in my mouth,
Let my soul glory in the Lord, for He hears the cry of the poor.
2. Let the lowly hear and be glad: the Lord listens to their pleas,
And to hearts broken He is near, for He hears the cry of the poor.
3. Ev'ry spirit crushed He will save; will be ransom for their lives;
Will be safe shelter for their fears, for He hears the cry of the poor.
4. We proclaim the greatness of God, His praise ever in our mouth;
Ev'ry face brightened in His light, for He hears the cry of the poor.
