Psalm 70

(Worship leader: A David psalm. A desperate prayer.)

Run!
Save me, God!
Drop everything and get here.
I need help, Yahweh,
And I need it now.

There are people gunning for me.
Make their plans backfire,
Blow up in their faces.
Make all these people chasing me,
Turn tail and run away.
May the crowd laughing at me
Turn into the very jokes
They make about me.
But may everyone who relies on you
Break into applause
Because of what you’re about to do.
May those who count of you say,
“Yahweh is the best.
He always comes through.”

But life sucks right now, God.
I need you here
Now.
You’re my deliverance,
My only hope.
Don’t let anything slow you down,
Yahweh, please!
