Psalm
86 Prayed
Delighting in the promises of the gospel
in the face of scorn
Hear, O Lord Jesus, and answer
me,
for
I am poor and needy.
Guard my life, for I am devoted
to you.
You
are my God; save your servant
who
trusts in you.
Have mercy on me, O Lord,
for
I call to you all day long.
Bring joy to your servant,
for
to you, O Lord,
I
lift up my soul.
You are forgiving and good, O
Lord,
abounding
in love to all who call to you.
Hear my prayer, O Lord Jesus;
listen
to my cry for mercy.
In the day of my trouble I will
call to you,
for
you will answer me.
Among the gods there is none
like you, O Lord;
no
deeds can compare with yours.
All the nations you have made
will
come and worship before you, O Lord;
they
will bring glory to your name.
For your Father exalted you to
the highest place
and
gave you the name that is above every
name,
that at your name every knee
should bow,
in
heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue confess that
you are Lord,
to
the glory of God the Father,
for you are great and do marvellous
deeds;
you
alone are God the Son.
Therefore proclaim the eternal
gospel to those who
live
on the earth—
to
every nation, tribe, language and people.
Teach me your way, O Lord
Jesus,
and
I will walk in your truth;
give me an undivided heart,
that
I may fear your name.
I will praise you, O Lord Jesus
my God,
with all my heart;
I
will glorify your name forever.
O, how great is your love
toward me;
you
have delivered me from the depths of the
grave,
having been buried with
you in baptism,
and
raised with you through my faith
in
the power of God,
who
raised you from the dead.
When I was dead in my sins,
and
the uncircumcision of my sinful nature
God made me alive with you, O
Christ,
he
forgave all my sins,
having cancelled the written
code,
with
its regulations,
that stood against me
and
that stood opposed to me,
he took it away,
nailing
it to the cross.
Since I have been raised with
you,
I
will set my mind on things above,
where
you are seated at the right hand of God.
Help me to believe from the
depth of my soul
that I have died,
and
my life is now hidden with you in God.
And that you are my life, O Christ.
When
you appear
then
I also will appear with you in glory.
The arrogant may be attacking
my faith, O God;
a
band of ruthless people may be seeking to
destroy my hope,
people
without regard for you.
But you, O Lord Jesus, are a
compassionate and
gracious
God,
slow
to anger, abounding in love and
faithfulness.
Turn to me and have mercy on
me;
grant
your strength to your servant
and
save the child of your maidservant.
Give me a sign of your
goodness,
that
my spiritual enemies may see it and be put
to
shame,
for
you, O Lord Jesus, have helped me and
comforted
me.
comforted
me.
