Oh Lord

Psalm 25

To you O Lord  lift up my soul, in you I trust oh my God,
Do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me.
No one whose hope is in you will ever be put to shame, 
Show me your ways Oh Lord, teach me your paths,
guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, 
and my hope is in you all day long.
Remember Oh Lord your great mercy and Love, for they are from of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me, for you are good Oh Lord.

Good and upright is the Lord, therefor he instructs sinners in his ways,
He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.
All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful for those who keep the demands of his covenant.
For the sake of your name Oh Lord, forgive my iniquity though it is great.

The Lord confides in those who fear him.
He makes his covenant known to them. 
My eyes are ever on the Lord, for only he will release my feet from the snare.

Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.
The troubles of my heart have multiplied;
free me from my anguish.
Look upon my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins.
Guard my life and rescue me; let me not be put to shame,
for I take refuge in you

May integrity and uprightness protect me,
because my hope is in you.

It December 7th  and this is my prayer.
