Prayer: At An Acceptable Time


But as for me
My prayer is to You, O God
At an acceptable time, O God
In the abundance of Your steadfast love
Answer me in Your saving faithfulness

Deliver me from sinking in the mire
Deliver me from the deep waters
Let not the floods sweep over me
Let not the deep swallow me up or close its mouth over me
Reproaches have broken my heart so that I am in despair

At an acceptable time, O God
In the abundance of Your steadfast love
Answer me in Your saving faithfulness

Exalt that which is low and bring low that which is exalted
Soften hearts and let division cease
May things not remain as they are

At an acceptable time, O God
In the abundance of Your steadfast love
Answer me in Your saving faithfulness


Psalm 69.13-15, 20; Ezekiel 21.26; Mark 3. 5, 25
