How many are against me, Lord

They say, "God will not come to help," and people taunt, "There is no hope." 2 But you are round me, Lord, my shield, but you, my glory, lift my head! You hear me from your holy hill and answer when I cry aloud. 3 I go to rest, and sleep in peace– I wake again; God keeps me safe: ten thousand shall not make me fear, for all their threats to take my life. 4 Arise, O Lord, to rescue me: arise and save me, O my God! You silence all my enemies till scorn and spite are all destroyed. Scripture: Psalm 3 Used With Tune: ADON OLAM

The LORD is my strength and my song, defender and guide of my ways; my master to whom I belong, my God who shall have all my praise. 2 The dangers of death gathered round, the waves of destruction came near, but in my despairing I found the LORD who released me from fear. I called for his help in my pain, to God my salvation I cried; he brought me his comfort again, I live by the strength he supplied. 3 The earth and the elements shake with thunder and lightning and hail; the cliffs and the mountain-tops break and mortals are feeble and pale. His justice is full and complete, his mercy to us has no end; the clouds are a path for his feet, he comes on the wings of the wind. 4 My hope is the promise he gives, my life is secure in his hand; I shall not be lost, for he lives! he comes to my aid— I shall stand! LORD God, you are pow'rful to save, your Spirit will spur me to pray; your Son has defeated the grave: I trust and I praise you today! Scripture: Psalm 18 Used With Tune: JANE
