They remembered that God was their rock, God Most High, their redeemer.
O! God, Thanks for been there for me! For lifting me out of the messes I get into.
But they deceived him with their mouths, lied to him with their tongues.
Guilty as charge I am! When things go well and going my way I forget and break my promises.
Their hearts were not constant toward him; they were not faithful to his covenant.
So true of me. I don't how it happens but I do it. I get amnesia or just plain don't care.
But God is merciful and forgave their sin; he did not utterly destroy them. Time and again he turned back his anger, unwilling to unleash all his rage.
How can this be, Lord, knowing what a mess of thoughts, spirit and flesh I can be, You care
enough not to strike me down and finish me off right when I am the most awful creature.
He was mindful that they were flesh, a breath that passes and does not return.
Thank you, Lord! You remember I am vapor, a mist, a breeze that passes by forever is gone!
How often I cried unto you in sorrow for my sins and their consequences. Again, and again I test you, I provoke you to anger. Yet you hold you wrath from me and in compassion for me
you stretch out your hand from the heavens and once again pull me out of my sorrows and depressions. There is no other God that would do such a thing.
I do love you Lord, nothing compares to you. My Jesus, my savior, there is none like you,
I want to praise the wonders of You and your mighty Love.
