In Forgotten Ground Regained, Issue 9, Winter 2026 Psalms and Meditations
I will ever laud Your endless love,O Lord, my God of great mercy.My mouth will declare Your faithful kindnessto all generations, O righteous Lord.For Your steadfast love was always established;Your holy faithfulness is firm in the heavens.
You swore to David, Your chosen servant,“I will establish your line to live forever,and fix your throne firmly through the ages.”
The heavens praise Your holy wonders;the saints assemble and sing with joyfor Your faithful constant abiding care.For who in heaven compares to the Holy Lord?What angel can be likened to the Lord God?When the holy ones meet, they fear His majesty;they surround His throne in reverent awe.O Lord of hosts in the highest heavens,You are ever mighty and ever faithful.
O Lord, You rule the raging sea;by the word of Your mouth, You still its waves.You have crushed Rahab like a rotted carcass;You have scattered Your enemies with Your strong arm.
The heavens are Yours, and Yours the earth;You have filled the world with wondrous creatures.You conceived and birthed the north and south;Tabor and Hermon, those towering mountains,magnify Your name with all their might.Your arm is mighty in all Your acts,and Your right hand is lifted high.
Justice and judgment are joined at Your throne;mercy and truth are Your twin attendants.Blest are the feasters in their festal shouts;the light of Your face illuminates their walk.They exult in Your name from morn till night;their reverent joy extolls Your righteousness.Your awesome glory arms their victory;Your favor to their king kindles their praise.For our shield belongs to the Lord our God;our king lives to serve our Holy Savior.
