Tune: Dominus Regit Me
('The king of love my Shepherd is')
Psalm 109 v.27-31
********
Help me, O Lord, my God, save me
According to your mercy
That my enemies may this know
That you your doings me show
Let them curse, Lord, but you do bless
I shall trust, shall you confess
When enemies arise, may shame
Be to them, I praise your name
Let me your servant here rejoice
To follow you be my choice
Let enemies be confused, fall
But I shall tell your works all
I will greatly praise Him, the Lord
And trust in His good, true word
I praise Him midst the peoples for
He shall come, help, save the poor

I much prefer libel to slander .. is there as much libel in the bible as slander I wonder .. 🐧😇👍
Thanks N. Dunno quite, but the Psalmist was in a right old state, having been slandered - rightly so, I think. A tricky Psalm to make a poem out of.
Religion inspires just one side always told as if the counterbalance of things awry makes sense to ignore.
Thanks B.
Nice one orchi,
Of course we will be ridiculed and slandered,and hated and scoffed
But we do everything in Jesus's name and it doesn't matter because He is our Savior and nothing anyone says matters,
Our treasures and rewards are in Heaven and that's where we are going eventually,
Just u watch ⌚️
Thanks B. Yes, the Psalmist knew it too.
I thought you was gonna say 'Just you pie - or key'. heehee. What am I on about? lol.
Hahaha
Good one Orchi.
Thanks Gold.
