PSALM 57

You are generous to me, dear Lord;

you have taught my soul to trust you.

I have crept beside you and found

shelter in the shadow of your wings.

My great joy, Lord, is to praise you;

I will sing and awaken the dawn.

Wake up, my soul; wake up,

music in the depths of my heart.

I will praise you, Lord, to all people

and inspire them with my joy.

For your light is higher than the heavens,

deeper than the mind can plunge.

You are truth itself, and your grandeur

is spread over all the earth.
