Psalms 142- My Soul You Have Sought
Lord I cry out to You
Wandering in the dark
I’m lost alone and in a cave
Like an arrow who has missed their mark
But You Lord are steadfast
More constant than the rising sun
You carry the well of my sorrows
Your love is inferior to none
Yes, my soul faints
But God You do not
Thank for for carrying me
My soul You have sought
Psalms 141- May Our Prayers Be A Fragrant Offering
Lord I lift my prayers to You
Offering them with haste
May they be a fragrant presentation
Sweet to the taste
Guard my mouth Father
Protect the words of my lips
Do not incline my heart to evil
So I will not slip
Bless the righteous who sharpen
May they continually chide
For their words are like oil
From them may I never hide
God of refuge
Protect me from the traps
My eyes are ever towards You
In Your truth do I wrap
Psalms 140- For He Is A Shelter, Savior, & Friend
Evil men try to assail me
Plotting wicked things
Their tongues lash out like serpents
poison in their lips that stings
Guard me Lord from violent men
preserve my faint heart
See the downfall of these men
Bid them thence depart
God of the Most High
Give ear to my pitiful cries
You are the strength of my salvation
The Ruler of earth of sky
Let my enemies fall like rain!
See to them a quick end
My God surely helps the afflicted
For He is a shelter Savior and friend
Psalms 139- How Good And Wonderful Are Your Works!
God has searched me
He knows my frame
He knows my thoughts
And calls me by name
You made my inner being
My heart cries in joy
How good and wonderful are Your works!
I’m Yours to deploy
How precious are Your thoughts
O Lord of my heart
I’ll always be with You
Like You were at my start
Look within me God!
Find any wicked in me
Lead me in the way of the everlasting
That I may have eyes to see
Psalms 138- I Know Who Holds My Hand
Knees are bent
Head held low
I come to You Father
With nothing to show
To You I give thanks
Christ do we exalt
He is steadfast and faithful
And has no faults
Every king will bow down
To offer You their thanks
For great is our God!
He has the highest rank
Although He is mighty
He cares for the small
His compassion is that of a Father
Love abounding for all
But fear ye haughty man
For You know the Father not
Pain will follow your pride
And destruction will surely be wrought
Though my heart is heavy
I know who holds my hand
My Savior, Lord, Father, and Friend
Your steadfast love is where I’ll stand
Psalms 137- Remember Your People
When we were captured
Oh how we lamented our home!
How can we sing?
For we have nowhere to freely roam
Remember Israel
Do not forget our promised land
Guide us out of this misery
With Your righteous right hand
Remember Your people Lord
Destroy the enemies of old
Shake their inner foundations
So our children can be told
Psalms 136- For His Love Endures Forever
In all things
Give thanks to our King
For His Love endures forever
He is the reason we sing
He does great wonders
And made the earth
For His Love endures forever
He shows us our worth
Maker of the lights
Designer of the stars
For His Love endures forever
We are healed by His scars
Defender of Your people
With an outstretched arm
For His Love endures forever
Keeping us from harm
You remembered us
In our low place
For His Love endures forever
We long to see Your face
