When my soul fainted within me …

 

 

When my soul fainted within me, I cried out to the Lord in my trouble (Ps. 107:5-6).

He humbled my heart with labor (v. 12) because I rebelled against the words of God (v. 11)

And because of my rebellious way and because of my iniquities (v. 17).

When there was none to help me (v. 12),

I cried out to the Lord in my trouble and my distresses (vv. 13, 19, 28).

Then God sent His word and healed me (v. 20), saved me out of my distresses (vv. 6, 13, 19, 20),

Brought me out of darkness and the shadow of death (vv. 14, 28),

led me also by a straight way (v. 7) And caused the storm to be still (v. 29).

God has satisfied the thirsty soul and has filled the hungry soul with what is good (v. 9).

Therefore, I will give thanks to the Lord

For His lovingkindness and for His wonders to me (vv. 8, 15, 21, 31).
