From Psalm 31:1-2: “In you, O Lord, I seek refuge; do not let me ever be put to shame; in Your righteousness deliver me. Incline Your ear to me; rescue me speedily. Be a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me.”
Facing life’s overwhelming odds
Darkness invades, hope crashing down
Searching for sustaining refuge
Forsaking another showdown
Emptiness penetrates deeply
Faith weakening, now feeling mocked
Each empty promise calling out
Distant future forever locked
Calling to Father above
Reaching for His righteous-filled hand
Praying for heavenly rescue
Grasping mercy, fleeing quicksand
Light overcomes evil’s doomsday
God’s promises, always to trust
Mighty fortress restoring faith
Distant future looking robust
From Psalm 31:14-15: “But I trust in You, O Lord; I say, ‘You are my God.’ My times are in Your hand; deliver me from the hand of my enemies and persecutors.”
