Psalms 138
Theme: Thanksgiving for answered prayer. God works out his plans for our lives and will bring us through the difficulties we face.
A Psalm of David.
1I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee. +
2I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. +
3In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul. +
4All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth. +
5Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.
6Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off. +
7Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me. +
8The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands. +
