On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

We may more easily accommodate this psalm to ourselves, in the singing of it, because most of the petitions in it are for spiritual blessings (which we all need at all times), mercy and grace. Complaints and Petitions. 1 Hear my prayer, O L ORD , give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness.
