LORD,
I have come to you for protection;
never let me be defeated!
Because you are righteous,
help me and rescue me.
Listen to me and save me!
Be my secure shelter and a strong fortress to protect me;
you are my refuge and defense.
Psalms 71:1-3 GNB.
You have taught me since I was a child,
and I never stop telling about your marvelous deeds.
Don't leave me when I am old and my hair turns gray.
Let me tell future generations about your mighty power.
Your deeds of kindness are known in the heavens.
No one is like you!
You made me suffer a lot,
but you will bring me back from this deep pit and give me new life.
You will make me truly great and
take my sorrow away.
I will praise you, God,
the Holy One of Israel.
You are faithful.
I will play the harp and
sing your praises.
You have rescued me!
I will celebrate and shout, singing praises to you with all my heart.
All day long I will announce your power to save.
I will tell how you disgraced and disappointed those who wanted to hurt me.
Psalms 71:17-24 CEV.

Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness,
Leaning upon her beloved? …
Song of Solomon 8:5 Darby.
