A psalm of praise for guidance and comfort
I trust you Lord, with all my life,
Yahweh is my God, my salvation, my guide.
My God is whom I go to in times of trouble.
He is my comforter, always giving a listening and attentive ear.
I cried out to Yahweh in my distress, in uncertain times,
I called out where I was, asking for guidance and help
Asking why this had happened and what it meant,
I felt lost and confused.
I did not know where to go or what had happened,
I felt that I had been following the wrong path.
Yahweh visited me in my need and carried me
He provided for me when I thought hope was gone
The doubts in my mind, he expelled, hope was returned.
He has enabled me to know where to aim
He has refreshed and renewed my desire,
Opened the door that seemed once to be closed.
I know there will be times when these doubts will come again
But I will praise you, Yahweh, with my every breath,
I will give thanks for the works you have done
I will tell of your loving-kindness
You are the Holy One, my saviour.
