('Through all the changing scenes of life')
Psalms 9 and 10 parts
**********
The Lord will be a refuge sure
For the oppressed and poor
A refuge in times of trouble
Will hear them when they call
And they that know His name, they shall
Put their trust in Him well
For you, Lord, have not forsaken
They that seek you again
Sing praises to the Lord, which dwells
In Zion, each tongue tells
Among the people His doings
How He does work good things
Arise, O Lord God, lift your hand
Help needy in the land
Forget not the humble, for they
Follow you in your way
The Lord is King for evermore
E'en to earth's farthest shore
His enemies they perished be
We them no longer see
Lord, you have heard humble's desire
And what they to aspire
You will prepare their heart, them hear
Their prayers to you be dear
You will judge for orphans, and care
For needy, they shall share
In good things, no more be oppressed
By men, but in you blessed

Good one Orchi.
Thanks Gold.
When I was young and even more poor than now I banked at Zion's bank. I think they were the reason I was poor. I wonder if God was the manager there. Good write Orchi
Thanks SB. Or maybe certain Bank of 'They' - they in some churches who keep asking for money.
