[Ancient Psalm | Male Psalmist | Melodic Chant | Lyre] Hear my voice, O God, when I call; In my trouble, give me room. Show me mercy, receive my prayer; Turn Your ear to me. How long will men dishonor what is good? How long pursue what fades away? How long will they follow empty things, And seek what cannot stand? [Selah | Lyre Interlude | Stillness] Know that the Lord keeps near The one who walks with Him. When I lift my voice and call, The Lord will hear. Tremble, but do not choose the path of sin. Search your heart upon your bed. Speak within your heart in the quiet night, Then become still. [Selah | Instrumental Pause] Bring what is right before the Lord; Place your trust in Him. Many cry, “Where shall we find what is good?” Let the light of Your face Rise upon us, O Lord. You have placed a deeper gladness in my heart Than fields heavy with grain, Than jars overflowing with wine, Than abundance gathered at harvest. I will lie down in peace. I will close my eyes and sleep. For You alone, O Lord, Set me apart from fear. The night may fall around me, Yet I will rest beneath Your care. For You alone, O Lord, Make me dwell in safety. [Outro | Lyre Alone | Quiet Resolution] I will lie down in peace. I will sleep. You make me dwell In safety. [End]
