Psalms 13 ~ Listen and Read Along

Dramatized KJV	JV McGee
This little psalm is very full of beauty as it traces the way by which many a tried and , tempest-tossed soul has found consolation and strength. First of all, there is the cry almost of despair. Foes are oppressing the men of faith. There seems to be no succor even from the LORD. Yet carefully note that his faith in the LORD, He is able to help. To God then he cries. "my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation." That backward look has served to remind the troubled heart of deliverances and a new confidence is born of the memory which utters itself in a song. It is good to remember all the way the LORD has led us when the day was dark with fear.
