To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. Be not silent, O God of my praise! For wicked and deceitful mouths are opened against me, speaking against me with lying tongues. They encircle me with words of hate, and attack me without cause. In return for my love they accuse me, but I give myself to prayer. So they reward me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
Lord, toughen up Your Church. Build the faith that is our stamina. Increase the trust that makes us willing to stand for Your Truth. Pour into us Your Holy Spirit to remind us of all that You have taught us. Equip us, Lord, to be mighty soldiers for Your Kingdom. Do not spare Your people.
