Cast your burden on the Lord - Psalm 55: 16-23

Make your call out to God looking for His answer from on high for the Lord God will save you bring praise with a joyful cry During every moment of the day bring your complaint and your moan for God will always hear your voice as He will look after His own God will redeem your soul in the battle that you do wage your enemies stand so forceful no godly fear and will not change Cast your burden on the Lord you know He will sustain you never will you be moved for God holds the righteous true The Lord will cast them to destruction these men of blood won't live to do you will survive despite the attacks tell God but I will trust in you ("But I call to God, and the Lord will save me. Evening and morning and at noon I utter my complaint and moan, and he hears my voice. He redeems my soul in safety from the battle that I wage, for many are arrayed against me. God will give ear and humble them, he who is enthroned from of old, Selah because they do not change and do not fear God. My companion stretched out his hand against his friends; he violated his covenant. His speech was smooth as butter, yet war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords. Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved. But you, O God, will cast them down into the pit of destruction; men of blood and treachery shall not live out half their days. But I will trust in you.") Psalm 55: 16-23 (ESV)
