GOODMORNING

Psalm 25

 ¹I offer you my heart, LORD God,

    ²and I trust you.

   Don’t make me ashamed

   or let enemies defeat me.

    ³Don’t disappoint any

   of your worshipers,

   but disappoint all

   deceitful liars.

    ⁴Show me your paths

   and teach me to follow;

    ⁵guide me by your truth

   and instruct me.

   You keep me safe,

   and I always trust you.

    ⁶Please, LORD, remember,

   you have always

   been patient and kind.

    ⁷Forget each wrong I did

   when I was young.

   Show how truly kind you are

   and remember me.

    ⁸You are honest and merciful,

   and you teach sinners

   how to follow your path.

    ⁹You lead humble people

   to do what is right

   and to stay on your path.

    ¹⁰In everything you do,

   you are kind and faithful

   to everyone who keeps

   our agreement with you.

    ¹¹Be true to your name, LORD,

   by forgiving each one

   of my terrible sins.

    ¹²You will show the right path

   to all who worship you.

    ¹³They will have plenty,

   and then their children

   will receive the land.

    ¹⁴Our LORD, you are the friend

   of your worshipers,

   and you make an agreement

   with all of us.

    ¹⁵I always look to you,

   because you rescue me

   from every trap.

    ¹⁶I am lonely and troubled.

   Show that you care

   and have pity on me.

    ¹⁷My awful worries keep growing.

   Rescue me from sadness.

    ¹⁸See my troubles and misery

   and forgive my sins.

    ¹⁹Look at all my enemies!

   See how much they hate me.

    ²⁰I come to you for shelter.

   Protect me, keep me safe,

   and don’t disappoint me.

    ²¹I obey you with all my heart,

   and I trust you, knowing

   that you will save me.

    ²²Our God, please save Israel

   from all of its troubles.
