Psalms:56
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Be merciful to me ,
O God ,
for man would swallow me up ;
Fighting all day he oppresses me .
*
My enemies would hound me all day ,
For there are many who fight against me ,
O Most High .
*
Whenever I am afraid ,
I will trust in You .
*
In God (
I will praise His word ),
In God I have put my trust ;
I will not fear .
What can flesh do to me ?
*
All day they twist my words ;
All their thoughts are against me for evil .
*
They gather together ,
They hide ,
they mark my steps ,
When they lie in wait for my life .
*
Shall they escape by iniquity ?
In anger cast down the peoples ,
O God !
*
You number my wanderings ;
Put my tears into Your bottle ;
Are they not in Your book ?
*
When I cry out to You ,
Then my enemies will turn back ;
This I know ,
because God is for me .
*
In God (
I will praise His word ),
In the LORD (
I will praise His word ),
*
In God I have put my trust ;
I will not be afraid .
What can man do to me ?
*
Vows made to You are binding upon me ,
O God ;
I will render praises to You ,
*
For You have delivered my soul from death .
Have You not kept my feet from falling ,
That I may walk before God In the light of the living ?
