Rescue Me
So much is going wrong Lord,
who can I turn to,
where can I go?
Will you rescue me,
save me,
protect me?
Where are you God?
I can’t find you.
You are lost in the pain,
the frustration,
the anger
that builds inside me.
Guide me Lord,
lead me,
help me find my way
to you.
There will be protection,
as I find you
and myself in you.
When I can see clearly,
I know that you help me,
I know that I can trust you.
I take my courage
and rest
in you.
Psalm 43 (CEV)
A Prayer in Times of Trouble
43 Show that I am right, God!
Defend me against everyone
who doesn’t know you;
rescue me from each
of those deceitful liars.
2 I run to you
for protection.
Why have you turned me away?
Why must enemies mistreat me
and make me sad?
3 Send your light and your truth
to guide me.
Let them lead me to your house
on your sacred mountain.
4 Then I will worship
at your altar
because you
make me joyful.
You are my God,
and I will praise you.
Yes, I will praise you
as I play my harp.
5 Why am I discouraged?
Why am I restless?
I trust you!
And I will praise you again
because you help me,
and you are my God.
