Dual Panel1Be good to me, God--and now! I've run to you for dear life. I'm hiding out under your wings until the hurricane blows over.
2I call out to High God, the God who holds me together.
3He sends orders from heaven and saves me, he humiliates those who kick me around. God delivers generous love, he makes good on his word.
4I find myself in a pride of lions who are wild for a taste of human flesh; Their teeth are lances and arrows, their tongues are sharp daggers.
5Soar high in the skies, O God! Cover the whole earth with your glory!
6They booby trapped my path; I thought I was dead and done for. They dug a mantrap to catch me, and fell in headlong themselves.
7I'm ready, God, so ready, ready from head to toe, Ready to sing, ready to raise a tune:
8"Wake up, soul! Wake up, harp! wake up, lute! Wake up, you sleepyhead sun!"
9I'm thanking you, GOD, out loud in the streets, singing your praises in town and country.
10The deeper your love, the higher it goes; every cloud is a flag to your faithfulness.
11Soar high in the skies, O God! Cover the whole earth with your glory!
