Psalm 4

Please, Lord give to me an answer when I call out to you.
Give to me some respite from all this misery; be compassionate to me and hear my prayer.

How long will my neighbors turn to the world and not to God?
How long will they love the falseness of sin and seek those gods?

We need to remember that the Lord sets apart those who strive to follow him.
The Lord will hear when I call out to Him.

Do not sin when you are angry; hold yourself to God’’s law; search your mind before you speak.
Trust in the Lord and give to him with joy.
Trust Him in all you do.
Often, we hear people wonder what this world is coming to.

Let the light of your face shine upon us, dear Father.
You have filled my heart with an abundance of joy, more than any earthly thing could give me.
I lie down in peace at night and sleep, O Lord; because of you, I am in a safe dwelling.
