A Song of Ascents. Remember, O LORD, in David's favor, all the hardships he endured, how he swore to the LORD and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob, "I will not enter my house or get into my bed, I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids, until I find a place for the LORD, a dwelling place for the Mighty One of Jacob."

Thank You, Lord, for the faith and testimony of David and all those who have gone before me. Their perseverance, their dedication to You; their longing to bring Your chosen people to a knowledge of You and and understanding of Your Law; all driving that great cloud of witnesses.

What a witness and example to me. Thank You, my Lord and Master.
