I Will Sing

[Psalms 13:1] For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. How long, LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? [Psalms 13:2] How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me? [Psalms 13:3] Behold, and answer me, LORD, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death; [Psalms 13:4] lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him;” lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall. [Psalms 13:5] But I trust in your loving kindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation. [Psalms 13:6] I will sing to the LORD, because he has been good to me.

[Psalms 42:3] My tears have been my food day and night, while they continually ask me, “Where is your God?” [Psalms 42:4] These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, how I used to go with the crowd, and led them to God’s house, with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping a holy day. [Psalms 42:5] Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him for the saving help of his presence. [Psalms 42:6] My God, my soul is in despair within me. Therefore I remember you from the land of the Jordan, the heights of Hermon, from the hill Mizar. [Psalms 42:7] Deep calls to deep at the noise of your waterfalls. All your waves and your billows have swept over me. [Psalms 42:8] The LORD will command his loving kindness in the daytime. In the night his song shall be with me: a prayer to the God of my life. [Psalms 42:9] I will ask God, my rock, “Why have you forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?” [Psalms 42:10] As with a sword in my bones, my adversaries reproach me, while they continually ask me, “Where is your God?” [Psalms 42:11] Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, and my God.

[Romans 8:24] For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees? [Romans 8:25] But if we hope for that which we don’t see, we wait for it with patience. [Romans 8:26] In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered. [Romans 8:27] He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God. [Romans 8:28] We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose. [Romans 8:29] For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

[Acts 16:23] When they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely. [Acts 16:24] Having received such a command, he threw them into the inner prison and secured their feet in the stocks. [Acts 16:25] But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. [Acts 16:26] Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s bonds were loosened. [Acts 16:27] The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped. [Acts 16:28] But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, “Don’t harm yourself, for we are all here!”

[Galatians 2:18] For if I build up again those things which I destroyed, I prove myself a law-breaker. [Galatians 2:19] For I through the law died to the law, that I might live to God. [Galatians 2:20] I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself up for me. [Galatians 2:21] I don’t reject the grace of God. For if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nothing!”

[Romans 8:26] In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered. [Romans 8:27] He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God. [Romans 8:28] We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose. [Romans 8:29] For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. [Romans 8:30] Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified. [Romans 8:31] What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? [Romans 8:32] He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things? [Romans 8:33] Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who justifies. [Romans 8:34] Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

[Proverbs 3:3] Don’t let kindness and truth forsake you. Bind them around your neck. Write them on the tablet of your heart. [Proverbs 3:4] So you will find favor, and good understanding in the sight of God and man. [Proverbs 3:5] Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. [Proverbs 3:6] In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. [Proverbs 3:7] Don’t be wise in your own eyes. Fear the LORD, and depart from evil. [Proverbs 3:8] It will be health to your body, and nourishment to your bones.

[Romans 8:24] For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees? [Romans 8:25] But if we hope for that which we don’t see, we wait for it with patience. [Romans 8:26] In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered. [Romans 8:27] He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God. [Romans 8:28] We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose. [Romans 8:29] For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

[2 Corinthians 12:7] By reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted excessively, a thorn in the flesh was given to me: a messenger of Satan to torment me, that I should not be exalted excessively. [2 Corinthians 12:8] Concerning this thing, I begged the Lord three times that it might depart from me. [2 Corinthians 12:9] He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me. [2 Corinthians 12:10] Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, and in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong. [2 Corinthians 12:11] I have become foolish in boasting. You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for I am in no way inferior to the very best apostles, though I am nothing. [2 Corinthians 12:12] Truly the signs of an apostle were worked among you in all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty works.

[Psalms 51:13] Then I will teach transgressors your ways. Sinners will be converted to you. [Psalms 51:14] Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation. My tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness. [Psalms 51:15] Lord, open my lips. My mouth will declare your praise. [Psalms 51:16] For you don’t delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it. You have no pleasure in burnt offering. [Psalms 51:17] The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. O God, you will not despise a broken and contrite heart. [Psalms 51:18] Do well in your good pleasure to Zion. Build the walls of Jerusalem. [Psalms 51:19] Then you will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offerings and in whole burnt offerings. Then they will offer bulls on your altar.

[Psalms 119:149] Hear my voice according to your loving kindness. Revive me, LORD, according to your ordinances. [Psalms 119:150] They draw near who follow after wickedness. They are far from your law. [Psalms 119:151] You are near, LORD. All your commandments are truth. [Psalms 119:152] Of old I have known from your testimonies, that you have founded them forever. RESH [Psalms 119:153] Consider my affliction, and deliver me, for I don’t forget your law. [Psalms 119:154] Plead my cause, and redeem me! Revive me according to your promise.

[Hebrews 13:13] Let’s therefore go out to him outside of the camp, bearing his reproach. [Hebrews 13:14] For we don’t have here an enduring city, but we seek that which is to come. [Hebrews 13:15] Through him, then, let’s offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which proclaim allegiance to his name. [Hebrews 13:16] But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. [Hebrews 13:17] Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch on behalf of your souls, as those who will give account, that they may do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be unprofitable for you. [Hebrews 13:18] Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things.

[Revelation 5:6] I saw in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth. [Revelation 5:7] Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne. [Revelation 5:8] Now when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. [Revelation 5:9] They sang a new song, saying, “You are worthy to take the book and to open its seals, for you were killed, and bought us for God with your blood out of every tribe, language, people, and nation, [Revelation 5:10] and made us kings and priests to our God; and we will reign on the earth.” [Revelation 5:11] I looked, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. The number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands, [Revelation 5:12] saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing!”

[Psalms 98:1] A Psalm. Sing to the LORD a new song, for he has done marvelous things! His right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him. [Psalms 98:2] The LORD has made known his salvation. He has openly shown his righteousness in the sight of the nations. [Psalms 98:3] He has remembered his loving kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. [Psalms 98:4] Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth! Burst out and sing for joy, yes, sing praises! [Psalms 98:5] Sing praises to the LORD with the harp, with the harp and the voice of melody. [Psalms 98:6] With trumpets and sound of the ram’s horn, make a joyful noise before the King, the LORD.

[Hebrews 13:13] Let’s therefore go out to him outside of the camp, bearing his reproach. [Hebrews 13:14] For we don’t have here an enduring city, but we seek that which is to come. [Hebrews 13:15] Through him, then, let’s offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which proclaim allegiance to his name. [Hebrews 13:16] But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

[Hebrews 13:18] Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things.
