Passion for Praise: 'The Lord Hears their Cries'

Saturday, July 20, 1957

The humble will see their God at work and be glad. Let all who seek God's help be encouraged. For the Lord hears the cries of the needy; he does not despise his imprisoned people. Praise him, O heaven and earth, the seas and all that move in them.
— Psalm 69:32-34
