I am waiting for you to save me, LORD. Your Law makes me happy.
Our LORD, I am waiting for you to save us.
I have ruled this way, and God will never break his promise to me. God's promise is complete and unchanging; he will always help me and give me what I hope for.
Instead, the Law of the LORD makes them happy, and they think about it day and night.
They will always be my most prized possession and my source of joy.
I will take pleasure in your laws and remember your words.
because they bring happiness like treasures taken in war.
Your laws are my greatest joy! I follow their advice.
Show me your love and save me, LORD, as you have promised.
I love your commands! They bring me happiness.
I love to obey your Law! Have mercy and let me live.
I long for you to rescue me! Your word is my only hope.
Not getting what you want can make you feel sick, but a wish that comes true is a life-giving tree.
Young women of Jerusalem, if you find the one I love, please say to him, “She is weak with desire.”
It is a hard choice to make. I want to die and be with Christ, because that would be much better.
