The Psalm
Psalm 37 (CSB)
3 Trust in the LORD and do what is good; dwell in the land and live securely.
The Prayer
The Only One Worthy of My Trust
What is my life, O Lord,
that I have spent
most of my years
trusting in gods that weak and stupid
and couldn't save themselves.
What is my mind, O Lord,
that my very nature
is incline not to think of you
but of the things of the world
as though anything in the material plane
could actually give me an ounce of real joy.
What is my heart, O God,
that breeds contempt
against my Creator and my Kingdom
that wages war
against the Spirit of peace
that blasphemes your holy name
and sins against you continuously.
My Lord and my God,
give me your precious mercy
so that I might live and not perish
give me your grace
to obey your word and do your will
give me your love
so I will be precious in your sight.
Save me from hell and death
and I can worship you
for all of my days
till the end of time.
Amen.
