To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who addressed the words of this song to the LORD on the day when the LORD rescued him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul. He said: I love you, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.

Lord, when I come to You in praise and thanksgiving, when I make my petitions to You based on the promises in Your Word, when I approach You in humility and contrition, when I acknowledge that I am powerless over my sin except through Your strength and Your Word, then and only then do You lead me out of the Wilderness of Beersheba. It is then that You open my eyes to the well of refreshing and life giving water, that gushing Spring of Salvation that is always there to sustain me. Praise You, my Shepherd, my Redeemer.
