Strengthen My Heart

O Lord,

You are my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
You are the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?

Though an army should encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear;
Though war should rise against me,
In this I will be confident.

I would have lost heart, unless I believed
That I would see Your goodness
In the land of the living.
I wait on You, Lord;

Give me courage,
And strengthen my heart.

Amen.
(See Psalm 27:1, 13-14)
