• Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Death

  • 1 I love the Lord, because He has heard My voice and my supplications.
  • 2 Because He has inclined His ear to me, Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.
  • 3 The pains of death surrounded me, And the pangs of Sheol laid hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow.
  • 4 Then I called upon the name of the Lord: “O Lord, I implore You, deliver my soul!”
  • 5 Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; Yes, our God is merciful.
  • 6 The Lord preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.
  • 7 Return to your rest, O my soul, For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.
  • 8 For You have delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, And my feet from falling.
  • 9 I will walk before the Lord In the land of the living.
  • 10 I believed, therefore I spoke, “I am greatly afflicted.”
  • 11 I said in my haste, “All men are liars.”
  • 12 What shall I render to the Lord For all His benefits toward me?
  • 13 I will take up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the Lord.
  • 14 I will pay my vows to the Lord Now in the presence of all His people.
  • 15 Precious in the sight of the Lord Is the death of His saints.
  • 16 O Lord, truly I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have loosed my bonds.
  • 17 I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of the Lord.
  • 18 I will pay my vows to the Lord Now in the presence of all His people,
  • 19 In the courts of the Lord’s house, In the midst of you, O Jerusalem. Praise the Lord!
