Psalm 27:6-10
The Message
Psalm 27:6-10
The Message
6 God holds me head and shoulders
above all who try to pull me down.
I’m headed for his place to offer anthems
that will raise the roof!
Already I’m singing God-songs;
I’m making music to God.
7-9 Listen, God, I’m calling at the top of my lungs:
“Be good to me! Answer me!”
When my heart whispered, “Seek God,”
my whole being replied,
“I’m seeking him!”
Don’t hide from me now!
9-10 You’ve always been right there for me;
don’t turn your back on me now.
Don’t throw me out, don’t abandon me;
you’ve always kept the door open.
My father and mother walked out and left me,
but God took me in.

Psalm 27:6-10
New International Version
6 Then my head will be exalted(A)
above the enemies who surround me;(B)
at his sacred tent I will sacrifice(C) with shouts of joy;(D)
I will sing(E) and make music(F) to the Lord.
7 Hear my voice(G) when I call, Lord;
be merciful to me and answer me.(H)
8 My heart says of you, “Seek his face!(I)”
Your face, Lord, I will seek.
9 Do not hide your face(J) from me,
do not turn your servant away in anger;(K)
you have been my helper.(L)
Do not reject me or forsake(M) me,
God my Savior.(N)
10 Though my father and mother forsake me,
the Lord will receive me.
