Psalm Challenge 145

Psalm Challenge 145

5 more weeks to go,
Each psalm a lesson in suffering, courage, hope, redemption.
For me, a discovery of songs, styles, 
The turning Earth,
Always changing,
Always staying the same.
The astronauts up in the space station
Tweet down profoundly beautiful views
From up yonder,
In the blink of an eye,
That image travels around the world,
Inspiring beauty.

Psalm 145

1 Alleluia, of Aggeus and Zacharias.

2 Praise the Lord, O my soul, in my life I will praise the Lord: I will sing to my God as long as I shall be. Put not your trust in princes:

3 In the children of men, in whom there is no salvation.

4 His spirit shall go forth, and he shall return into his earth: in that day all their thoughts shall perish.

5 Blessed is he who hath the God of Jacob for his helper, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

6 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things that are in them.

7 Who keepeth truth for ever: who executeth judgment for them that suffer wrong: who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth them that are fettered:

8 The Lord enlighteneth the blind. The Lord lifteth up them that are cast down: the Lord loveth the just.

9 The Lord keepeth the strangers, he will support the fatherless and the widow: and the ways of sinners he will destroy.

10 The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, O Sion, unto generation and generation.
