- Rescue me, O Lord, from liars
and from all deceitful people. - But each day the Lord pours his unfailing love upon me,
and through each night I sing his songs,
praying to God who gives me life. - The Lord will work out his plans for my life—
for your faithful love, O Lord, endures forever.
Don’t abandon me, for you made me. - When doubts filled my mind,
your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer. - But I trust in your unfailing love.
I will rejoice because you have rescued me.
I will sing to the Lord
because he is good to me. - I hear the tumult of the raging seas
as your waves and surging tides sweep over me. - Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come.
- But when you had eaten and were satisfied,
you became proud and forgot me. - But Jesus told them, “I will be with you only a little longer. Then I will return to the one who sent me.”
- I praise God for what he has promised.
I trust in God, so why should I be afraid?
What can mere mortals do to me? - You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many people.
- Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.”
- So we can say with confidence,
“The Lord is my helper,
so I will have no fear.
What can mere people do to me?” - If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!
- Look, I am coming soon, bringing my reward with me to repay all people according to their deeds.
- But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!
- Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me.”
- Yes, I am the gate. Those who come in through me will be saved. They will come and go freely and will find good pastures.
- As for me, may I never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross, my interest in this world has been crucified, and the world’s interest in me has also died.
- But God is my helper.
The Lord keeps me alive! - Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.’
- The Sovereign Lord is my strength!
He makes me as surefooted as a deer,
able to tread upon the heights. - Hear my prayer, O Lord;
listen to my plea!
Answer me because you are faithful and righteous. - Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.
- Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?”
I said, “Here I am. Send me.”
