Psalm
Psalm 89:2-3, 16-17, 18-19
The psalm is meant to be prayed, not rushed. If the wording feels older, focus on the main movement of the prayer: trust, praise, sorrow, gratitude, or hope.
2The mercies of the Lord I will sing forever. I will show forth your truth with my mouth to generation and generation.
3For you have said: Mercy shall be built up forever in the heavens: your truth shall be prepared in them.
16blessed is the people that knows jubilation. They shall walk, OH Lord, in the light of your face:
17and in your name they shall rejoice all the day, and in your righteousness they shall be exalted.
18For you art the glory of their strength: and in your good pleasure shall our horn be exalted.
19For our protection is of the Lord, and of our king the holy one of Israel.
