My Hiding Place

Blessed is the one
Whose transgressions are forgiven
Whose sins are covered
Blessed is the one
Whose sin the Lord does not count against them
And in whose spirit is no deceit
When I kept silent
My bones wasted away
Through my groaning
All day long
For day and night
Your hand was heavy on me
My strength was sapped
As in the heat of summer
Then I acknowledged my sin to you
And did not cover up my iniquity
I said, “I will confess
My transgressions to the Lord”
And you forgave
The guilt of my sin
Therefore let all the faithful pray to you
While you may be found
Surely the rising of the mighty waters
Will not reach them
You are my hiding place
You surround me with songs of deliverance
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go
I will counsel you with my loving eye on you
Many are the woes of the wicked
But the Lord’s unfailing love
Surrounds the one
Who trusts in him
Rejoice in the Lord
And be glad, you righteous
Sing, all you who are
Upright in heart!

Silence My Enemies

Lord, hear my prayer
Listen to my cry for mercy
In your faithfulness and righteousness
Come to my relief
Do not bring your servant
Into judgment
For no one living is righteous
Before you
The enemy pursues me
He crushes me to the ground
He makes me dwell in the darkness
Like those long dead
So my spirit grows faint
Within me
My heart within me is
Dismayed
I remember
The days of long ago
I meditate on all your works
And consider what your hands have done
I spread out my hands to you
I thirst for you like a parched land
Answer me quickly, Lord
My spirit fails
Do not hide your face from me
Or I will be like those who go down to the pit
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love
For I have put my trust in you
Show me the way
I should go
For to you
I entrust my life
Rescue me
From my enemies, Lord
For I hide myself
In you
Teach me to do your will
For you are my God
May your good Spirit
Lead me on level ground
For your name’s sake, Lord
Preserve my life
In your righteousness
Bring me out of trouble
In your unfailing love
Silence my enemies
Destroy all my foes
For I am your servant
Teach me to do your will
For you are my God
May your good Spirit
Lead me on level ground

The Rain and the Snow

Seek the Lord while he may be found
Call on him while he is near
Let the wicked forsake their ways
And the unrighteous their thoughts
Let them turn to the Lord
And he will have mercy on them
For my thoughts are not your thoughts
Neither are your ways my ways
As the rain and the snow come down from heaven
And do not return to it without watering the earth
So that it yields seed for the sower
And bread for the eater
So is my word that goes out from my mouth
It will not return to me empty
But will accomplish what I desire
And achieve the purpose for which I sent it
As the heavens are higher than the earth
So are my ways higher than your ways
You will go out in joy
And be led forth in peace
The mountains and hills
Will burst into song before you
And all the trees of the field
Will clap their hands
Come, all you who are thirsty
Come to the waters
Give ear and come to me
Listen, that you may live
You will go out in joy
And be led forth in peace
This will be
For the Lord’s renown
For an everlasting sign
That will endure forever
Come, all you who are thirsty
Come to the waters
Give ear and come to me
Listen, that you may live

Hear my prayer, Lord
Let my cry for help come to you
Do not hide your face from me
When I am in distress
Turn your ear to me
When I call, answer me quickly
For my days vanish
Like smoke
My bones burn
Like glowing embers
My heart is blighted and
Withered like grass
I lie awake; I have become
Like a bird alone on a roof
All day long my enemies taunt me
Those who rail against me use my name as a curse
For I eat ashes as my food
And mingle my drink with tears because of your great wrath
My days are like the evening shadow
I wither away like grass, but you, Lord, sit enthroned forever
You will arise and have compassion on Zion
For it is time to show favor to her
The nations will fear the name of the Lord
All the kings of the earth will revere your glory
For the Lord will rebuild Zion
And appear in his glory
He will respond to the prayer of the destitute
He will not despise their plea
Let this be written for a future generation
That a people not yet created may praise the Lord
The Lord looked down from his sanctuary on high
From heaven he viewed the earth
To hear the groans of the prisoners
And release those condemned to death
In the course of my life
He broke my strength
He cut short my days, so I said:
Do not take me away, my God, in the midst of my days
Your years go on through all generations
You laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands
They will perish, but you remain
They will all wear out like a garment
Your years go on through all generations
You laid the foundations of the earth
And the heavens are the work of your hands
They will perish, but you remain
They will all wear out like a garment
Like clothing you will change them
And they will be discarded but you remain the same
And your years will never end
The children of your servants
Will live in your presence
Their descendants will be
Established before you

The Strength of My Heart
06:27

Surely God is good to those
Who are pure in heart
But as for me, my feet had almost slipped
I had nearly lost my foothold
For I envied
The arrogant
When I saw
The prosperity of the wicked
Pride
Is their necklace
They clothe themselves
With violence
From their callous hearts comes iniquity
Their evil imaginations have no limits
They scoff, and speak with malice
They threaten oppression
Their mouths lay claim
To heaven
And their tongues take
Possession of the earth
They say
“How would God know?”
This is what
The wicked are like
Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure
And have washed my hands in innocence
If I had spoken out like that
I would have betrayed your children
Till I entered the sanctuary of God
Then I understood their final destiny
Surely you cast them down to ruin
How suddenly are they destroyed
I am always with you
You hold me by my right hand
Whom have I in heaven but you?
God is the strength of my heart forever
