God You are my fortress – Psalm 91

Pray this prayer again. Lift your heart to God. From Songs of Hope on  2012 07 15.  Prayer Psalm 91 verses 1-6 and 14-16

Psalm 91:1-6,14-16

1 Live under the protection
of God Most High
and stay in the shadow
of God All-Powerful.

2 Then you will say to the Lord,
“You are my fortress,
my place of safety;
you are my God,and I trust you.”

3 The Lord will keep you safe
from secret traps
and deadly diseases.

4 He will spread his wings
over you
and keep you secure.
His faithfulness is like
a shield or a city wall.

5 You won’t need to worry
about dangers at night
or arrows during the day.

6 And you won’t fear diseases
that strike in the dark
or sudden disaster at noon.
. . .
14 The Lord says,
“If you love me
and truly know who I am,
I will rescue you
and keep you safe.

15 When you are in trouble,
call out to me.
I will answer and be there
to protect and honor you.

16 You will live a long life
and see my saving power.”
