Psalm of the Overwhelmed

When my heart is overwhelmed, I cry to Thee, Lead me to the Rock that is higher than me, Thou hast been a shelter from my enemy, In Thy tabernacle, forever I'll be. When my spirit within me was overwhelmed, Then Thou knew my path; my life ship Thou hast helmed, Thou art my refuge, bring my soul out of jail, Thou shalt deal bountifully, Thy name I'll hail.
(Inspired by Psalms 61 & 142) 25th March 2023
