The safety of the Faithful

                      Psalm 4                                      for June 28, 2009

 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieve me in my distress; Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. 

 2 How long, O you sons of men, will you turn my glory to shame? How long will you love worthlessness And seek falsehood?

3 But know that the LORD has set apart for Himself him who is godly; The LORD will hear when I call to Him.

4 Be angry, and do not sin. Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still.

5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in the LORD.

6 There are many who say, Who will show us any good?" LORD, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us.

7 You have put gladness in my heart, More than in the season that their grain and wine increased.

8 I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.
