Psalms 4
Evening Prayer of Trust in God.
1 (C1)Answer me when (C2)I call, God (F1)of my righteousness!
You have (F2)(C3)relieved me in my distress;
Be (C4)gracious to me and (C5)hear my prayer.
2 You sons of man, how long will (C1)my (F1)honor be treated as (C2)an insult?
How long will you love (C3)what is worthless and strive for a (C4)lie? Selah
3 But know that the LORD has (F1)(C1)set apart the (C2)godly person for Himself;
The LORD (C3)hears when I call to Him.
4 (F1)(C1)Tremble, (F2)(C2)and do not sin;
(F3)(C3)Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah
5 Offer (F1)the (C1)sacrifices of righteousness,
And (C2)trust in the LORD.
6 Many are saying, "(C1)Who will show us anything good?"
(C2)Lift up the light of Your face upon us, LORD!
7 You have put (C1)joy in my heart,
More than when their grain and new wine are abundant.
8 In peace I will (F1)both (C1)lie down and sleep,
For You alone, LORD, have me (C2)dwell in safety.
