"Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.
Show me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.
Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD." Psalms 25:1-7
'Be still, and know that I am God:
I will be exalted among the heathen,
I will be exalted in the earth.'
(Psalm 46:10)
I will be exalted among the heathen,
I will be exalted in the earth.'
(Psalm 46:10)
Hi, @Heart2Soul I know what you mean! :)

This is a great thread topic. I doubt that I know the Psalms well enough to form an educated opinion. Sure, I've read the Psalms a few times now. 19 and 82 are 2 that I have focused on a bit for the last couple of years.
I have many favourites but today it is Psalm 23.
Psalm 23
A psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.

I had forgot all about this thread. I love the Psalms. Just found this on another board today.

¹ (A Psalm of David.) Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
² My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

I love this thread....
Remember when I was asking how to read Psalms because the Holy Spirit told me to?
I never could get into reading it because it didn't have that flow to it like when reading a book.
Anyway, someone suggested singing them..so I tried it and it worked!
I gained so much hope and comfort through them....and I learned how to earnestly praise and worship God and how to have a heart of repentance... David was a good teacher...he led by example:)
@Heart2Soul The Psalms were originally indeed intended to be sung. (Some churches still do.)
I thought, months back, this would be a good subject for a thread (or was it years back? I started so many threads...)
