My rewrite
of Psalms 116; when I get writer’s block sometimes, I look for scripture to put
into my own words. Try it, yourself!
Psalms 116
I love the Lord, because He has heard I
love you Lord, You HEAR me!
My voice and my supplications. You recognize me as Your child
Because He has inclined His ear to me, You bowed low to listen
Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live. I call upon You while I live
The pains of death surrounded
me, Life
sometimes feels like death
And the pangs of Sheol laid hold of
me; Hell on earth, I’ve served time there, it
seems.
I found trouble and sorrow. Trouble
finds me and I am sorrowful.
Then I
called upon the name of the Lord: Jesus, I’m calling You!
“O Lord, I implore You, deliver my
soul!” Lord, help
me!
Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; You are the perfect
Gentleman, So Holy.
Yes, our God is merciful.
Mercy is running to me.
The Lord preserves the simple; You
preserve my lowliness
I was brought low, and He saved me. I was down and out
and You saved me.
Return to
your rest, O my soul, Soul,
rest in Jesus,
For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you. My Lord overflows with bountifulness
to me
For You have
delivered my soul from death, You
heard me dying inside, a silent scream
My eyes from tears, My tears were flowing and You dried them.
And my feet from falling. I stumbled and
fell, You lifted me.
I will walk before the Lord . My walk in this world
is ever before You.
In the land of the living. I live by Your Spirit eternally.
I believed,
therefore I spoke, I had my own belief system
“I am greatly afflicted.” I said in my
haste, Because of abuse
and affliction
“All men are liars.”
I didn’t trust men in this world.
What shall I
render to the Lord But what
can I give You?
For all His
benefits toward me?
For all that You’ve given me?
I will take up the cup of salvation, I drink from the salvation cup
And call upon the name of the Lord. Calling, Jesus, Jesus,
Jesus.
I will pay my vows to the Lord Vowing to follow You
Now in the presence of all His people. Before Your congregation and
the world.
Precious in
the sight of the Lord You’ll
call me precious
Is the death of His saints. At the moment I return to
You.
O Lord, truly I am Your servant; I serve You only
I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; I’m Yours, a daughter born to You
You have loosed my bonds. You unchained my soul
I will offer to You the
sacrifice of thanksgiving, A grateful heart I give to You
And will call upon the name of the Lord. Calling
Your name, Jesus, forever
I will pay my vows to the Lord Giving
You what I promised You
Now in the presence of all His people, Before the world and the
Body of Christ
In the courts of the Lord’s house,
In Your temple, Your church,
In the midst of you, O Jerusalem. Wherever I am, You
will be, Lord.
Praise the Lord! Psalms 116 NKJ I'm recklessly shouting
Your name.
It’s Friday, and we’re praying for
the deep, unspoken heart cries and burdens of our families and friends.
I love you Lord, You
HEAR me! You are the love of my life and lifter of my soul. I exalt You Lord
for what You have done, will do and for Who You are, O lover of my soul. There is no one like You! I live to praise
Your name and speak of the chain-breaking power of Your love. You keep me when
I don’t want to be kept. You restore my damaged soul. You return the lost to me
and keep me praying for those who have lost their way. YOU ARE THE GOOD, GOOD
FATHER I longed for as a child and You never denied me.
I have You, Jesus.
My Waymaker; You are also my Home, where my heart is and always longs to be,
with You, at home alone. I love you Lord, You HEAR ME! Hear the heart cries of
your people today, we pray. We will give You all the glory.
