For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by David. My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him

The Psalm

Psalms. Chapter 62. For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by David. My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him. He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress. I will never be greatly shaken. How long will you assault a man? Would all of you throw him down, like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence? They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah. My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress. I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honour is with God. The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. Trust in him at all times, you people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. Selah. Surely men of low degree are just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath. Don’t trust in oppression. Don’t become vain in robbery. If riches increase, don’t set your heart on them. God has spoken once; twice I have heard this, that power belongs to God. Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work.

Worship Lyrics

For the Chief Musician
To Jeduthun
A Psalm by David
My soul rests in God alone
My salvation is from him
He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress
I will never be greatly shaken
How long will you assault a man
Would all of you throw him down, like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence
They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place
They delight in lies
They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly
Selah
My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him
He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress
I will not be shaken
My salvation and my honour is with God
The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God
Trust in him at all times, you people
Pour out your heart before him
God is a refuge for us
Selah
Surely men of low degree are just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie
In the balances they will go up
They are together lighter than a breath
Dont trust in oppression
Dont become vain in robbery
If riches increase, dont set your heart on them
God has spoken once; twice I have heard this, that power belongs to God
Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work
