A Prayer—God Our Rock Be Exalted
I love you, O Lord, my strength for you are my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, you are my shield, and the horn of my salvation, Lord God you are my stronghold.
I call to you Lord, for you are worthy of praise, and you saved me from the enemy. The cords of death entangled me; the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me. The cords of the grave coiled around me; the snares of death confronted me. In my distress I called to you Lord Jesus Christ; I cried to my God for help. From heaven you heard my voice; my cry came before you.
You reached down from on high and took hold of me; you drew me out of the deep waters of sin and death. You rescued me from the power of the enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me. The arrows of the enemy confronted me in the midst of my trails, but the Lord God Almighty was my support, and my mighty deliverer.
You brought me out into the spaciousness and mercy of Jesus Christ; you rescued me since you delighted in me because of Christ. The Lord God has dealt with me according to my righteousness found only in Jesus Christ; according to the cleanness of my hands because of the Cross.
For I pledge to always keep the ways of my Lord Jesus Christ; may I never sin by turning from you my God, since your word is ever before me; I have not turned away from your commands. I have been blameless before you and have kept myself from sin.
May you, O Lord, keep my lamp in Christ burning; my God turns my darkness into light.
With your help I can advance against any trial; with my God I can overcome all. As for you God, your way is perfect: The Lord’s word is flawless; you are a shield to all who take refuge in you through Christ. For who is God Almighty besides the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God?
It is you God who arms me with strength; and it is you Father that keeps my way secure. May your right hand Jesus Christ sustain me always; The Lord God lives! Praise be to God my Rock! Exalted be God my Savior! He is the God who saves me, Therefore I will praise you, Lord, among the Saints; I will sing the praises of your Holy name.
In Christ Name I pray.
Amen
