- Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me. - Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever. - The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it. - Who is he, this King of glory?
The Lord Almighty—
he is the King of glory. - Show me your ways, Lord,
teach me your paths. - Guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long. - Remember, Lord, your great mercy and love,
for they are from of old.
Do not remember the sins of my youth
and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me,
for you, Lord, are good. - Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way. - The Lord is my light and my salvation—
whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life—
of whom shall I be afraid? - Though an army besiege me,
my heart will not fear;
though war break out against me,
even then I will be confident. - One thing I ask from the Lord,
this only do I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
to gaze on the beauty of the Lord
and to seek him in his temple. - I remain confident of this:
I will see the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living. - Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord. - The Lord is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusts in him, and he helps me.
My heart leaps for joy,
and with my song I praise him. - The Lord gives strength to his people;
the Lord blesses his people with peace. - For his anger lasts only a moment,
but his favor lasts a lifetime;
weeping may stay for the night,
but rejoicing comes in the morning. - In you, Lord, I have taken refuge;
let me never be put to shame;
deliver me in your righteousness. - Since you are my rock and my fortress,
for the sake of your name lead and guide me. - My times are in your hands;
deliver me from the hands of my enemies,
from those who pursue me. - Let your face shine on your servant;
save me in your unfailing love. - How abundant are the good things
that you have stored up for those who fear you,
that you bestow in the sight of all,
on those who take refuge in you. - Be strong and take heart,
all you who hope in the Lord. - Blessed is the one
whose transgressions are forgiven,
whose sins are covered. - When I kept silent,
my bones wasted away
through my groaning all day long. - Then I acknowledged my sin to you
and did not cover up my iniquity.
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord.”
And you forgave the guilt of my sin.
You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance.See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
