I trust in you for salvation, O Lord!

“But Israel soon became fat and unruly; the people grew heavy, plump, and stuffed! Then they abandoned the God who had made them; they made light of the Rock of their salvation.

“The Lord lives! Praise to my Rock! May God, the Rock of my salvation, be exalted!

Cry out, “Save us, O God of our salvation! Gather and rescue us from among the nations, so we can thank your holy name and rejoice and praise you.”

“And now arise, O Lord God, and enter your resting place, along with the Ark, the symbol of your power. May your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation; may your loyal servants rejoice in your goodness.

The Lord lives! Praise to my Rock! May the God of my salvation be exalted!

Psalm 27

A psalm of David.

The Lord is my light and my salvation— so why should I be afraid? The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble?

Do not turn your back on me. Do not reject your servant in anger. You have always been my helper. Don’t leave me now; don’t abandon me, O God of my salvation!

But may all who search for you be filled with joy and gladness in you. May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, “The Lord is great!”

But giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me. If you keep to my path, I will reveal to you the salvation of God.”

Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and make me willing to obey you.

He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will never be shaken.

He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken.

But I keep praying to you, Lord, hoping this time you will show me favor. In your unfailing love, O God, answer my prayer with your sure salvation.

But may all who search for you be filled with joy and gladness in you. May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, “God is great!”

You, O God, are my king from ages past, bringing salvation to the earth.

Help us, O God of our salvation! Help us for the glory of your name. Save us and forgive our sins for the honor of your name.

Now restore us again, O God of our salvation. Put aside your anger against us once more.

Show us your unfailing love, O Lord, and grant us your salvation.

Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him, so our land will be filled with his glory.

Psalm 88

For the choir director: A psalm of the descendants of Korah. A song to be sung to the tune “The Suffering of Affliction.” A psalm of Heman the Ezrahite.

O Lord, God of my salvation, I cry out to you by day. I come to you at night.

And he will call out to me, ‘You are my Father, my God, and the Rock of my salvation.’

I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.”

Psalm 95

Come, let us sing to the Lord! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation.

But the love of the Lord remains forever with those who fear him. His salvation extends to the children’s children
