I am afraid; my courage is gone.
You would even gamble for orphans and would trade away your friend.
Lord, listen to my prayer; let my cry for help come to you.
They would have been like a flood drowning us; they would have poured over us like a river.
When I am afraid, you, Lord, know the way out. In the path where I walk, a trap is hidden for me.
Look around me and see. No one cares about me. I have no place of safety; no one cares if I live.
Turn to me and have mercy on me, because I am lonely and hurting.
I am scared and shaking, and terror grips me.
I call to you from the ends of the earth when I am afraid. Carry me away to a high mountain.
When I remember God, I become upset; when I think, I become afraid.Selah
At night I remember my songs. I think and I ask myself:
Being full of pain, Jesus prayed even harder. His sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.
