A Psalm of Comfort and Peace

PSALM 4

The Lord Has Set Us Apart

 

The Lord has set us apart.

He gave us each a sense of worth.

He sent his Son to touch our heart.

Each day brings us brand new birth.

The light of your face shines bright upon me.

You’ve put joy in my heart.  You live in me!

You’ll comfort me.

 

 

In our distress we don’t ask why.

We only know that in the end

You answer us whene’er we cry.

And good from evil you will send.

The light of your face shines bright upon me.

You’ve put joy in my heart.  You live in me!

You’ll comfort me.

 

  

In peace I lay down to sleep.

There is no strife that makes me chafe

The Lord is always there to keep

His eyes on me, then I’ll be safe.

The light of your face shines bright upon me.

You’ve put joy in my heart.  You live in me!

You’ll comfort me.

In quiet song David prays to God for mercy, reminding his people of

the danger of dishonoring God with their sin.  God has set us apart,

calling us out of sin, through Jesus Christ.  Thus we can feel secure in our

faith that God will keep us safe, too.  What peace that brings!
