Passion for Praise: 'Be My Rock of Protection'

Wednesday, April 5, 1961

O Lord, I have come to you for protection; don't let me be disgraced. Save me, for you do what is right. Turn your ear to listen to me; rescue me quickly. Be my rock of protection, a fortress where I will be safe. You are my rock and my fortress. For the honor of your name, lead me out of this danger.
— Psalm 31:1-3
