- 0:02Speaker 1: Psalm 57 For the cheap musician, to the tune of
- 0:07Speaker 1: Do Not Destroy, a poem by David when he fled
- 0:11Speaker 1: from Saul in the cave. Be merciful to me, God,
- 0:15Speaker 1: be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. Yes,
- 0:20Speaker 1: in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge
- 0:22Speaker 1: until disaster has passed. I cry out to God Most High,
- 0:27Speaker 1: to God who accomplishes my request for me. He will
- 0:30Speaker 1: send from heaven and save me. He rebukes the one
- 0:34Speaker 1: who is pursuing me. God will send out his lovingkindness
- 0:38Speaker 1: and his truth. My soul is among lions. I lie
- 0:42Speaker 1: among those who are set on fire, even the sons
- 0:44Speaker 1: of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their
- 0:48Speaker 1: tongue a sharp sword. Be exalted, God, above the heavens.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Let your glory be above all the earth. They have
- 0:56Speaker 1: prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down.
- 1:00Speaker 1: They dug a pit before me. They fall into the
- 1:03Speaker 1: mist of it themselves. My heart is steadfast. God, my
- 1:07Speaker 1: heart is steadfast. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
- 1:12Speaker 1: WAKE UP, MY GLORY, WAKE UP, SALTRIAN HARP, I WILL
- 1:16Speaker 1: WAKE UP THE DAWN, I WILL GIVE THANKS TO YOU, LORD,
- 1:18Speaker 1: AMONG THE PEOPLES, I WILL SING PRAISES TO YOU AMONG
- 1:22Speaker 1: THE NATIONS, FOR YOUR GREAT LOVINGKINDNESS REACHES TO THE HEAVENS,
- 1:26Speaker 1: AND YOUR TRUTH TO THE SKIES. BE EXALTED, GOD ABOVE
- 1:30Speaker 1: THE HEAVENS, LET YOUR GLORY BE OVER ALL THE EARTH.
