Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness!
You have relieved me in my distress;
Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.
2 How long, O you sons of men,
Will you turn my glory to shame?
How long will you love worthlessness
And seek falsehood?
Selah
3 But know that the LORD has set apart for Himself him who is godly;
The LORD will hear when I call to Him.—Psalm 4:1-3
Father...
In You and You alone is our righteousness and our strength. To You, our God will we come...You are our help. You will put to shame all those who are incensed against You. O God, the battle is Yours! In You and You alone will we glory. You will fight for us (ME!) and we (I) will hold our peace.
The enemy confronts us in the day of our calamity, but You, our God, are our support. You bring us out into a broad place...You deliver us because You delight in those who belong to You..ME! You are our God and You are for us.
Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me!
For my soul trusts in You;
And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge,
Until these calamities have passed by.
2 I will cry out to God Most High,
To God who performs all things for me.
3 He shall send from heaven and save me;
He reproaches the one who would swallow me up.
Selah—Psalm 57:1-3
Go with us today, Father, and have mercy on us! For how then will it be known that we, Your people, have found grace in Your sight, except that You go with us? We cast our care upon You today, Father. Our hearts are steadfast, O God, our hearts are steadfast. We will sing and give praise.
I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing to You among the nations.
10 For Your mercy reaches unto the heavens,
And Your truth unto the clouds.
11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
Let Your glory be above all the earth.—Psalm 57:9-11
