VINDICATE ME, O LORD

The heart continues to battle fear that is felt;

Strong faith in the LORD is desperately held.

The reality of the fear cannot be denied;

To God, as Vindicator, the psalmist cried.

 

The wicked activities are clearly presented;

Candidness must be clearly exhibited.

The appeal is to God and His righteousness;

Surely, the LORD will deal with wickedness!

 

The heart must exercise faith in such prayers;

There must be strong hope that God truly cares.

He will come to the rescue of the righteous;

God will vindicate, for His mercy is bounteous!

 

The righteous must determine to give praise;

No effort must be spared in seeking God’s face.

The LORD will surely give Divine vindication;

There is no reason to lose the spirit of jubilation!
