My Refuge Lord !  Psalm 46

My Lord You are my refuge, You are my strength everyday,
You are my present help Christ Jesus, whenever trouble comes my way.
Therefore I will not fear my Lord, what the enemy would do to me,
As I face each and everyday knowing, I can lean on and so rest continually.
In You for as I rest and be still in You , this one thing my Lord I know,
In You I can find true refuge, when the storms of life do blow.
In You I can find refuge Lord and You’ll make me safe it is true,
As I put all my hope and trust, my Lord in You and only You.

My Lord You are my refuge, My Lord I thank You today,
That I can rest in Your Arms of Love, whenever trouble comes my way.
That in You I can find Peace and in Your Presence true safety,
From the dangers in the world around, as I stand on Your Word steadfastly.
Never listening to the lies of the enemy, rebuking every doubt and fear,
That he sends my way to trouble me, by remaining faithful and true.
To You my Lord Jesus Christ daily, wherever life’s road so takes me to,
As I put all my hope and trust by faith, my Lord in You and only You.

According too Your Loving, Kindness O God
Today I pray, have Mercy on me,
Please cleanse me my Lord, of all of my sin
Wash me clean, of all my iniquity.
O God, create in me a clean heart I pray
And renew a right Spirit today within me,
Cast me never my God, away from Your Presence
But to be drawn closer to you, is my daily plea.
Take not Your Holy Spirit away I pray
But allow Him to abide daily within me,
Restore unto me the Joy of Your Salvation
Forevermore my God, yes for all eternity.

You O Lord !     Psalm 61

You O Lord are my strong tower, You O Lord are a shelter for me,
You hear and attend to my cry each day, every time I cry unto You faithfully,
When my heart is overwhelmed, by all that I see around me,
You take me into Your Shelter, a Strong Tower from the enemy.
You lead me to the Rock, that is far higher than me,
You take me under the Shadow of Your Wings, every time I cry unto You faithfully,
So I will sing praises daily, unto Your Name continually
So that as I abide before God forever, I may perform my vows uprightly.

Abiding  My Lord In You !   Psalm 91

As I daily dwell in the secret place, of You my Lord the Most High,
I shall abide under the Shadow of the Almighty, as to You by faith I draw nigh,
For You my Lord are my refuge, my fortress both night and day,
My deliverer from the snare of the fowler, Who will cover me each step of the way.
As under Your Wings I take refuge, with Your Truth, my buckler and shield,
Against pestilence, war and destruction, as to You Lord, I by faith do yield,
While a thousand may fall at my right hand and ten thousand at my left too,
Destruction will not come my way Lord, as I daily take refuge in You.

Wherein no evil shall befall me, Your Angels having charge over me each day,
To bear me up safely always in Your Hands, to keep me in all of my ways,
Having had set my love Lord upon You, I know that You’ll deliver me,
The lion and the serpent I’ll trample under my feet, over the enemy I’ll have victory.
Because I’ve know Your Name My Lord, You have I trust set me on high,
Whenever I have called upon You, You’ve answered me and have so drawn nigh,
You’ll be with me in my times of trouble, You’ll deliver and honour me too,
With endless life I know You’ll satisfy me, I’ll be shown Your Salvation to be true.

Abiding under My Shadow !   Psalm 91.

You that dwell in the the secret place, of  Me the Most High shall abide under the shadow of Me the Almighty.
As you say of Me the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress: my God in Him will I trust.”
Surely I shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
I shall cover you with My Feathers, and under My Wings shall you trust; My Truth shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrows that fly by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday.
A thousand may fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come near you.
Only with your eyes shall you behold and see the reward of the wicked too.

Because you have made Me the Lord your refuge, even Me the Most High your habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling.
For I will give My Angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.
They shall bear you up in their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.
You shall tread upon the lion and the adder: the young lion and the dragon shall you trample under feet.
Because you have set your love upon Me, therefore I'll deliver you: I'll set you on high because you have known My Name.
You shall call upon Me and I will answer you: I will be with you in trouble; I will deliver you, and honour you.
With long life I will satisfy you, and show you My Salvation.

Those Who Are Planted In Your House O Lord!       Psalm 92 : 12 - 15

Those who are planted in Your House O Lord, shall flourish in the Your Courts O God,
The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree and grow like the cedars of Lebanon.
In there old age they shall bear fruit, they shall indeed be fresh and flourishing
Declaring that You O Lord are ever upright, You’re their Rock, their Lord and their King.

O Lord When Tossed !  Psalm 107 28-31,35

O Lord when we are tossed to and fro, in our lives by the winds of adversity,
Thank You that as we cry out unto You, You do calm the tumultuous sea.
Yes You so command the waves to be still and they are obedient to You always too,
And such waves in our lives You do calm, as we by faith call out unto You.
For as the stormy wind You make quiet, in Your desired haven we are able to be,
In safety protected from the storms of life, as we call out by faith and stand steadfastly.
Upon Your Word, upon Your Promises and for Your Goodness we so praise You,
And for Your wonderful works we praise You Lord, amidst the storms of life You take us through.

Believing that the wilderness You’ll make as standing ground and the dry ground into water springs,
And the barren land into abundant fruitfulness, as we praise You always with thanksgiving.
Even when what we see with our natural eyes, says what we’re promised can never be,
But thank You Lord You look beyond our doubts and fears and we can claim them by steadfastly.
Standing upon Your Word and all it does say, yes on Your Word as our chief Cornerstone,
By claiming our rightful place Lord Jesus Christ, our Eternal King seated on Your Throne.
Standing upon Your Word Lord day and night, with our eyes forever upon You,
Believing in our hearts that amidst every storm, You will always bring us through.

Are indeed my Help in all times of trouble, You are my Strength and my Shield.
And so my Lord I will praise You, yes I will praise You each day still more
I will Praise You my Lord daily yet more, yes praise You like never before,
I will bless You my Lord forever, from this time forth and for evermore
I will Praise You my Lord daily, yes praise You like never before my Lord.

I Thank You My Lord !        Psalm. 118

I thank You Lord for You are God and forever Your Mercy endures,
When I called upon You in my distress, You answered and made my steps sure,
You set me Lord in that broad place and I know You’re on my side,
I will not fear what man can do to me, as by faith in You I abide.
I know it’s better for me to trust in You Lord, than to put my confidence in man,
Yes to put my trust in You and You alone, than in those who around me stand,
For though my enemies have surrounded me, in Your Name they have been destroyed,
For You Lord, are my strength, my song, amidst despair comes victory and joy.

For You Lord have become my Salvation, in the tents of Righteousness we rejoice,
Your Right Hand Lord does valiantly and is exalted as we heed to Your Voice,
I shall not die but live on forever, as Your works Lord I will declare,
Although You’ve chastened me severely, I know that for me You do care.
Lord You’ve not given me over to death, but the Gates of Righteousness You've opened to me,
I will go through them and praise You Lord, with thanksgiving for Your setting me free,
I will praise You Lord for You’ve answered me, and my Salvation You have become,
You the Stone that the builders rejected, have become my Chief Cornerstone.

What You have done is marvellous in our eyes and this is the day You have made too,
We will rejoice and be glad in it, as we draw still ever closer to You,
Blessed is He who comes in Your Name, for You are both God and Lord,
You’ve given us Light, the Light of Salvation, You’ve blessed us with Your Living Word.
Now as we bind the sacrifice with cords to the Altar, our Lord and God, we will praise You,
Giving thanks for Your ever enduring Mercy, You our Lord and God, we will exalt You.
Now as I bind the sacrifice with cords to the Altar, my Lord, my God, I will praise You,
Giving thanks for Your ever enduring Mercy, You my Lord and God, I will exalt You.
