Bible
Texts:
Psalm
55:!-23 NLT (For the choir director: A psalm of David, to be
accompanied by stringed instruments.)
1
Listen to my prayer, O God. Do not ignore my cry for help!
2
Please listen and answer me, for I am overwhelmed by my troubles.
3
My enemies shout at me, making loud and wicked threats. They bring
trouble on me and angrily hunt me down.
4
My heart pounds in my chest. The terror of death assaults me.
5
Fear and trembling overwhelm me, and I can’t stop shaking.
6
Oh, that I had wings like a dove; then I would fly away and rest!
7
I would fly far away to the quiet of the wilderness. Interlude
8
How quickly I would escape— far from this wild storm of hatred.
9
Confuse them, Lord, and frustrate their plans, for I see violence and
conflict in the city.
10
Its walls are patrolled day and night against invaders, but the real
danger is wickedness within the city.
11
Everything is falling apart; threats and cheating are rampant in the
streets.
12
It is not an enemy who taunts me— I could bear that. It is not my
foes who so arrogantly insult me— I could have hidden from them.
13
Instead, it is you—my equal, my companion and close friend.
14
What good fellowship we once enjoyed as we walked together to the
house of God.
15
Let death stalk my enemies; let the grave swallow them alive, for
evil makes its home within them.
16
But I will call on God, and The Lord will rescue me.
17
Morning, noon, and night I cry out in my distress, and The Lord hears
my voice.
18
He ransoms me and keeps me safe from the battle waged against me,
though many still oppose me.
19
God, who has ruled forever, will hear me and humble them. Interlude
For my enemies refuse to change their ways; they do not fear God.
20
As for my companion, he betrayed his friends; he broke his promises.
21
His words are as smooth as butter, but in his heart is war.
His
words are as soothing as lotion, but underneath are daggers!
22
Give your burdens to The Lord, and He will take care of you. He will
not permit the Godly to slip and fall.
23
But you, O God, will send the wicked down to the pit of destruction.
Murderers and liars will die young, but I am trusting you to save me.

all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence.

around you, these evils will not touch you.

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Colossians

turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

Come
Unto Me, Ye Weary, And I Will Give Thee Rest.
"Come
unto Me, ye weary,
And I
will give you rest."
O
blessed voice of Jesus,
Which
comes to hearts oppressed!
It
tells of benediction,
Of
pardon, grace, and peace,
Of
joy that hath no ending,
Of
love that cannot cease.
"Come
unto Me, ye wand'rers,
And I
will give you Light."
O
loving voice of Jesus,
Which
comes to cheer the night!
Our
hearts were filled with sadness,
And
we had lost our way;
But
Thou hast brought us gladness
And
songs at break of day.
"And
whosoever cometh,
I
will not cast him out."
O
patient love of Jesus,
Which
drives away our doubt,
Which,
though we be unworthy
Of
love so great and free,
Invites
us very sinners
To
come, dear Lord, to Thee!
