Lord, be good to me as you have promised.
“But who am I? And who are my people? Without your help we wouldn’t be able to give this much. Everything comes from you. We’ve given back to you only what comes from you.
I said to myself, “Be calm. The Lord has been good to me.”
Be good to me while I am alive. Do this so that I may obey your word.
I will sing praise to the Lord. He has been so good to me.
Lord, you are like a shield that keeps me safe. Your strong right hand keeps me going. Your help has made me great.
You turned my loud crying into dancing. You removed my clothes of sadness and dressed me with joy.
