Another version of Psalm 64

November 27, 2017 by Chris Gribble

My endless nights were filled with despair,
Seeking a safe place to find a sanctuary,
Instead surrounded by a circling wall of contempt,
My dear enemy’s demeaning daily list of lies,
His desire to create confusion using deceit,
Every hate filled word spoken privately,
Seeking others to join hate’s ambush,
Every day his evil plans amount to less and less,
His convincing arguments of deluded grandeur,
Will become pride’s foolish badge of shame.

Justice will come as certain as the new day,
Grandeur’s convincing words quickly forgotten,
Stupidity’s lament will be his lost opportunity,
Shame is the end of his destructive path,
I have found a place where truth is celebrated,
No need to listen to the endless babble,
It’s just self consumed noise about nothing,
My life is a witness to Eternity’s trust in me,
Declared innocent and in the winner’s corner,
Praise is my response to salvation’s promise,
My voice joining worship’s chorus of hope.
