Praise For God's Protection

⁵ Be exalted above the heavens, O God;
Let Your glory be above all the earth.

My soul is bowed down;
They dug a pit before me;
They themselves have fallen into the midst of it. Selah.
⁷ My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises!
