A Prayer of Praise
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation;
I will fear no one.
The LORD protects me from all danger;
I will never be afraid.
2 When evil people attack me and try to kill me,
they stumble and fall.
3* Even if a whole army surrounds me,
I will not be afraid;
even if enemies attack me,
I will still trust God.
4 I have asked the LORD for one thing;
one thing only do I want:
to live in the LORD's house all my life,
to marvel there at his goodness,
and to ask for his guidance.
5 In times of trouble he will shelter me;
he will keep me safe in his Temple
and make me secure on a high rock.
6 So I will triumph over my enemies around me.
With shouts of joy I will offer sacrifices in his Temple;
I will sing, I will praise the LORD.
7 Hear me, LORD, when I call to you!
Be merciful and answer me!
8 When you said, “Come worship me,”
I answered, “I will come, LORD.”
9 Don't hide yourself from me!
Don't be angry with me;
don't turn your servant away.
You have been my help;
don't leave me, don't abandon me,
O God, my savior.
10 My father and mother may abandon me,
but the LORD will take care of me.
11 Teach me, LORD, what you want me to do,
and lead me along a safe path,
because I have many enemies.
12 Don't abandon me to my enemies,
who attack me with lies and threats.
13 I know that I will live to see
the LORD's goodness in this present life.
14 Trust in the LORD.
Have faith, do not despair.
Trust in the LORD.
