PRAYERS WE SING

1 I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy.  2 Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.  3 The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came upon me; I was overcome by trouble and sorrow.  4 Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, save me!”  5 The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.  6 The LORD protects the simplehearted; when I was in great need, he saved me.  7 Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.  8 For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling,  9 that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living.  10 I believed; therefore I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”  11 And in my dismay I said, “All men are liars.”  12 How can I repay the LORD for all his goodness to me?  13 I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.  14 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.  15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.  16 O LORD, truly I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your maidservant; you have freed me from my chains.  17 I will sacrifice a thank offering to you and call on the name of the LORD.  18 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,  19 in the courts of the house of the LORD— in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD. (Ps 116)
