A Psalm and A Prayer
Psalm 119 n

Psalm 119 n

Leader: Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

People: I have sworn an oath and confirmed it, to observe your righteous ordinances.

Leader: I am severely afflicted; give me life, O LORD, according to your word.

People: Accept my offerings of praise, O LORD, and teach me your ordinances.

Leader: I hold my life in my hand continually, but I do not forget your law.

People: The wicked have laid a snare for me, but I do not stray from your precepts.

Leader: Your decrees are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart.

People: I incline my heart to perform your statutes forever, to the end.

O God, everyday we thank You for the Bible. Your word reveals Your compassion and understanding of our needs and problems, of our trials and temptation, of our afflictions and diseases. Your word offers us strength, healing, eternal life, and the assurance of your love and faithfulness forever. Help us draw closer to you as we pray each day in Jesus Name. Amen.
