Rights - a Christian perspective
The Bible teaches repeatedly that Christians are to work to make sure that the poor and oppressed find the justice that is their right. Elsewhere in the Bible, God states that He values this more than religious ceremonies or rituals.

Oppressed - a Christian perspective
The psalmist petitions God to defend the weak and the fatherless and the rights of the poor and oppressed. Jesus later affirmed this message and told us to love and serve all people, especially the poor and oppressed.

Refuge in the Bible: Psalm 9:9
God is many times in the Bible described as a refuge or fortress where the weak and oppressed can find safety. All who are persecuted or rejected by the world can find shelter in Him.
