- He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will never be shaken. - Let all that I am wait quietly before God,
for my hope is in him. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will not be shaken. - My victory and honor come from God alone.
He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me. - Unfailing love, O Lord, is yours.
Surely you repay all people
according to what they have done. - O God, you are my God;
I earnestly search for you.
My soul thirsts for you;
my whole body longs for you
in this parched and weary land
where there is no water. - Your unfailing love is better than life itself;
how I praise you!
I will praise you as long as I live,
lifting up my hands to you in prayer. - You have tested us, O God;
you have purified us like silver. - For I cried out to him for help,
praising him as I spoke. - Yes, God will bless us,
and people all over the world will fear him. - Sing praises to God and to his name!
Sing loud praises to him who rides the clouds.
His name is the Lord—
rejoice in his presence!
Father to the fatherless, defender of widows—
this is God, whose dwelling is holy. - God places the lonely in families;
he sets the prisoners free and gives them joy.
But he makes the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land. - Praise the Lord; praise God our savior!
For each day he carries us in his arms.
Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if someone asks about your hope as a believer, always be ready to explain it. Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.Next verse!With image
