('Fill thou my life, O Lord my God')
*********
Psalm 54 v.4
Behold, God is my helper sure
He with me evermore
And with those who uphold my soul
In Him I am helped whole
Psalm 55 v.22
Cast your burden upon the LORD
He is the living Word
He shall sustain, never let be
Righteous to be moved, see
Psalm 56 v.4
In the Lord God I His word praise
And to Him anthems raise
In God I trust, I will not fear
What man may do right here
Psalm 57 v.1
Be merciful, O God, to me
My soul trusts in you, see
In shadow of your wings I hide
Through troubles, there reside
Psalm 57 v.9-10
I shall praise you, Lord, midst peoples
For you hear all my calls
Your mercy great to the heavens
Your fount of grace opens

Thanks UNCLE STEVE ~ BRIAN (here) ~ ANGELA still in bed (4:30am Sat) ! Love the Hymn ~ tune a tad melancholy ! I love your paraphrases on single verse Psalms ~ What a treasure house ! I have shortened todays *five essential Psalm verses* into a rhyming quintet !
God is my constant Guide
Hes always by my side
Im praising day by day
Preserves me on my WAY
Youre near Me when ~ I in you abide ! AMEN
Blessings to YOU & YOUR Praising Pooch
