But you, O LORD, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. I cried aloud to the LORD, and he answered me from his holy hill. Selah I lay down and slept; I woke again, for the LORD sustained me. I will not be afraid of many thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around.
You are there in my repentance, ready and willing to lift my head so that I can see Your glory and revel in Your presence. You provide the sleep that truly restores and equips, You are the Shield about me. Praise You, my Lord and Master.
