Abstract: Psalm 5
Psalm 5
Listen to me God,
listen to my cries and pain.
I need You, the only One worthy and true.
I come to You first and always,
in all stages of my life- through grief and joy, when I have much or none.
I give you control of my heart and my steps.
Because, I know Your ways.
You don’t take pleasure in lies, adultery, violence, or bigotry.
No one can flatter or deceive You.
And You lead anyone willing to be led by You.
Though some are wicked and delight in mocking You,
Delight in destroying Your blessings,
I beg You to save them, like You rescued me.
Redeem the love of those who walked away,
and pour Yourself out on those who have never known Your warmth and grace.
For You love all the world and all the those in it.
I pray you turn my enemies into friends, my new brothers in You.
