For Guidance

Go before us, O Lord, in all our doings with your most gracious favor, and further us with your continual help; that in all our works begun, continued, and ended in you, we may glorify your holy Name, and finally, through your mercy, obtain everlasting life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Psalm 6

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments; according to The Sheminith. A Psalm of David.

O Lord, rebuke me not in your indignation, neither chasten me in your displeasure.

Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am weak; O Lord, heal me, for my bones are racked.

My soul also is greatly troubled; but, Lord, how long will you punish me?

Turn, O Lord, and deliver my soul; O save me for your mercy’s sake.

For in death no one remembers you, and who will give you thanks in the grave?

I am weary with my groaning; every night I flood my bed and drench my couch with my tears.

My eyes have become dim because of trouble, and worn away because of all my enemies.

Away from me, all you who work wickedness, for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping.

The Lord has heard my petition; the Lord will receive my prayer.

All my enemies shall be confounded and greatly vexed; they shall be turned back and put to shame suddenly.
