Each evening they come back, howling like dogs and prowling about the city. They wander about for food and growl if they do not get their fill. But I will sing of your strength; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning. For you have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress. O my Strength, I will sing praises to you, for you, O God, are my fortress, the God who shows me steadfast love.

O, Lord, in times of distress, I must turn to you and Your strength. How can I survive when my knees quake from fear, except that You keep me within Your steadfast love. Help me and guide me to turn to You rather than kicking against those who seek my harm. Praise You, my Lord and my Master, as You stand between me and my foes.
