To you, O LORD, I cry, and to the Lord I plead for mercy: “What profit is there in my death, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it tell of your faithfulness? Hear, O LORD, and be merciful to me! O LORD, be my helper!”
You could have left me in to wallow in the filth and mire that I had chosen as my way of life, that life of self-righteous anger. But You saw, before time began, that I was to be rescued and lifted up, washed and restored, to walk on the King’s Highway glorifying and praising You. Thank You, Lord, praise to Your holy name.
