- If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.
- Show me the right path, O Lord;
point out the road for me to follow. - First, help me never to tell a lie.
Second, give me neither poverty nor riches!
Give me just enough to satisfy my needs. - Create in me a clean heart, O God.
Renew a loyal spirit within me. - I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me.
He freed me from all my fears. - I live because of the living Father who sent me; in the same way, anyone who feeds on me will live because of me.
- Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
Point out anything in me that offends you,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life. - I tell you the truth, anyone who welcomes my messenger is welcoming me, and anyone who welcomes me is welcoming the Father who sent me.
- Father, I want these whom you have given me to be with me where I am. Then they can see all the glory you gave me because you loved me even before the world began!
- Anyone who wants to serve me must follow me, because my servants must be where I am. And the Father will honor anyone who serves me.
- Lead me by your truth and teach me,
for you are the God who saves me.
All day long I put my hope in you. - If you love me, obey my commandments.
- For you are my hiding place;
you protect me from trouble.
You surround me with songs of victory. - As for me, I look to the Lord for help.
I wait confidently for God to save me,
and my God will certainly hear me. - I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?’
- In my distress I prayed to the Lord,
and the Lord answered me and set me free. - O Lord, I have come to you for protection;
don’t let me be disgraced.
Save me, for you do what is right. - If you refuse to take up your cross and follow me, you are not worthy of being mine.
- The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear.
What can mere people do to me? - You have given me your shield of victory.
Your right hand supports me;
your help has made me great.
You have made a wide path for my feet
to keep them from slipping. - Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God.
May your gracious Spirit lead me forward
on a firm footing. - O Lord, if you heal me, I will be truly healed;
if you save me, I will be truly saved.
My praises are for you alone! - My future is in your hands.
Rescue me from those who hunt me down relentlessly. - Keep me safe, O God,
for I have come to you for refuge. - Lord, don’t hold back your tender mercies from me.
Let your unfailing love and faithfulness always protect me.
The Lord is my shepherd;
I have all that I need.
He lets me rest in green meadows;
he leads me beside peaceful streams.Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God.
May your gracious Spirit lead me forward
on a firm footing.
