1.1 KiB
Psalm 57Praise for God's Protection
- Be gracious to me, God, be gracious to me, for I take refuge in you.
I will seek refuge in the shadow of your wings until danger passes.
-
I call to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me.
-
He reaches down from heaven and saves me, challenging the one who tramples me.Selah God sends his faithful love and truth.
-
I am surrounded by lions; I lie down among devouring lions-- people whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords.
-
God, be exalted above the heavens; let your glory be over the whole earth.
-
They prepared a net for my steps; I was despondent. They dug a pit ahead of me, but they fell into it!Selah
-
My heart is confident, God, my heart is confident. I will sing; I will sing praises.
-
Wake up, my soul! Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn.
-
I will praise you, Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.
-
For your faithful love is as high as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches the clouds.
-
God, be exalted above the heavens; let your glory be over the whole earth.
