Psalm 143:6-11 - Heartlight

⁶I stretch out my hands to You;

my soul thirsts for You like a parched land.

⁷Answer me quickly, O LORD;

my spirit fails.

Do not hide Your face from me,

or I will be like those who descend to the Pit.

⁸Let me hear Your loving devotion in the morning,

for I have put my trust in You.

Teach me the way I should walk,

for to You I lift up my soul.

⁹Deliver me from my enemies, O LORD;

I flee to You for refuge.

¹⁰Teach me to do Your will,

for You are my God.

May Your good Spirit lead me

on level ground.

¹¹For the sake of Your name, O LORD,

revive me.

In Your righteousness,

bring my soul out of trouble.

— Psalm 143:6-11
