Sons of Korah

"As a deer longs for running streams, / so my soul longs for you, O God."

"Why are you so disheartened, O my soul? / Why do you sigh within me? / Place your hope in God, / for I will once again praise him, / my Savior and my God."

"The depths of the sea resound / in the roar of your waterfalls; / all your waves and your breakers / sweep over me. / During the day the Lord grants his kindness, / and at night his praise is with me, / a prayer to the living God."

"For your sake we are put to death all day long; / we are treated like sheep destined to be slaughtered. / Awake, O Lord. Why do you sleep? / Rise up, and do not abandon us forever."

"God is our refuge and our strength, / a well-proved help in times of trouble."

"Come and behold the works of the Lord, / the astonishing deeds he has wrought on the earth. / He puts an end to wars all over the earth; / he breaks the bow and snaps the spear, / and he burns the shields with flames."

"Just as the sparrow searches for a home / and the swallow builds a nest for herself / where she may place her young, / so do I seek your altars, / O Lord of hosts, my King and my God. / Blessed are those who dwell in your house; / they offer continuous praise to you. Selah"

"Kindness and faithfulness will meet; / righteousness and peace will embrace. / Faithfulness will spring forth from the earth, / and righteousness will look down from heaven."
