"I love the LORD, because He hath heard my voice and my supplications. Because He hath inclined His ear unto me, therefore will I call upon Him as long as I live. The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech Thee, deliver my soul… The LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee. For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling" (Psalm 116:1-8).
There is a
ballad of salvation
That is recorded
in a Psalm
Reflecting my
own supplication
When God turned
trouble into calm.
In Psalm one
hundred and sixteen,
The psalmist's
prayer reflects my own
When God was
pleased to intervene
To make His
great salvation known.
As long as God
shall give me breath,
I'll pray with
confidence He hears;
He saved me from
the second death,
And graciously
He dried my tears.
You heard my
supplication, Lord,
When You extended
on that day
Salvation I
could not afford,
For which You
died to fully pay.
