I cry out to the LordI plead for the Lord’s mercy.I pour out my complaints before him and tell him all my troubles.When I am overwhelmed, you alone know the way I should turn.

Then I pray to you, O Lord. I say, “you are my place of refuge.You are all I really want in life.Here my cry, for I am very low.

Rescue me from my persecutors, for they are too strong for me.Bring me out of prison so I can thank you.The godly will crowd around me for you are good to me

ELOHIM [el-oh-heem]: God “Creator, Mighty and Strong”We call out to Elohim, knowing He is Mighty

EL SHADDAI [el-shah-dahy]: “God Almighty,” “The Mighty One of Jacob” (Genesis 49:24; Psalm 132:2,5) – speaks to God’s ultimate power over all.
