Ending the Night with This Song

Back in the day when I was a little girl I used to hear my momma singing this song to God from the scriptures Psalm 63. I used to say to myself... "Why is she singing that song all the time?" I never knew (until I became a mommy myself) that she really needed God to intervene for the things she went through as a mother and wife. Now I find myself humming, singing, and meditating on some of the verses of Psalm 63. It is comforting to both my spirit and soul:

 

"Hear my cry O' God attend unto my prayer,

From the ends of the earth, will I cry unto thee,

And when my heart is overwhelmed, Lead me to the Rock

That is higher than I, that is higher than I.

For thou has been a shelter for me, and a strong tower,

From the enemy...and when my heart is overwhelmed,

Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I, that is higher than I."

 

This is what I go to sleep on...Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I...

 

God bless our sons tonight to know that they  are in your watchful care and no matter what happens to them, I pray that you will let them know that they are loved and missed and wanted--not just by us (their mothers)but by you as well. Blessings ♥

  • I am so thankful this helped you all--it sure did for me. I even read it this morning for my scripture reading of the day. I apologize for the wrong reference of Psalm 63...it is Psalm 61. I am sure you can make your own tune to it :-) it will become your own precious song/words to the Lord. ♥
