A Prayer of Praise

27

1 You, Lord, are the light

that keeps me safe.

I am not afraid of anyone.

You protect me,

and I have no fears.

2 Brutal people may attack

and try to kill me,

but they will stumble.

Fierce enemies may attack,

but they will fall.

3 Armies may surround me,

but I won't be afraid;

war may break out,

but I will trust you.

4 I ask only one thing, Lord:

Let me live in your house

every day of my life

to see how wonderful you are

and to pray in your temple.

5 In times of trouble,

you will protect me.

You will hide me in your tent

and keep me safe

on top of a mighty rock.

h 27.5; 28.1 mighty rock: See the note at 18.2.

6 You will let me defeat

all of my enemies.

Then I will celebrate,

as I enter your tent

with animal sacrifices

and songs of praise.

7 Please listen when I pray!

Have pity. Answer my prayer.

8 My heart tells me to pray.

I am eager to see your face,

9 so don't hide from me.

I am your servant,

and you have helped me.

Don't turn from me in anger.

You alone keep me safe.

Don't reject or desert me.

10 Even if my father and mother

should desert me,

you will take care of me.

11 Teach me to follow, Lord,

and lead me on the right path

because of my enemies.

12 Don't let them do to me

what they want.

People tell lies about me

and make terrible threats,

13 but I know I will live

to see how kind you are.

14 Trust the Lord!

Be brave and strong

and trust the Lord .
