PSALM 114
Response:
I will walk in the presence of the Lord, in the land of the living.
Verse 1:
I love the Lord for he has heard
the cry of my appeal;
for he turned his ear to me
in the day when I called him.
Verse 2:
They surrounded me, the snares of death,
with the anguish of the tomb;
they caught me, sorrow and distress.
I called on the Lord’s name.
O Lord my God, deliver me!
Verse 3:
How gracious is the Lord, and just;
our God has compassion.
The Lord protects the simple hearts;
I was helpless so he saved me.
Verse 4:
He has kept my soul from death,
my eyes from tears
and my feet from stumbling.
I will walk in the presence of the Lord
in the land of the living.
