Psalm 3

May 22, 2009

Godde, now mine enemies increase their torment!
Many fight me,
Many degrade me.
They announce,
"God will not come to your aid!"

But You, O Godde, are my shield.
You fill me with glory's energy.
You are the one who lifts up my head.
My own voice cries out to You
And You heard me, even while being far away in Zion.

In misery I slept;
I awoke refreshed for
You gave me the miracle that is Your Love.
I will not be afraid of any nation
Who has tried to break me.

Arise, O Godde,
Save me, O my Strength!
For You have made the un-cowered, cower.
You have set the ignorant to silence.

Salvation is in my Godde-
Her blessing is upon me
And upon all her children.
