Psalm 40:2

Thanksgiving And A Cry For Help

¹ To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined to me, and heard my cry. ² He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. ³ And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
