Psalm 26

Inspired by Psalm 26. Light rock in style. For those that would like to compare the lyrics used with their favorite translation: Judge me, O Lord, for I have walked in my integrity; I trust in You, O Lord my God, so I shall steadfast be. Examine me and prove me, Lord; my heart and reins now try; For Your great lovingkindness, Lord, is ever in my eye. Within Your truth I still have walked, before my path You stand; With vain men I have never sat, nor joined the false of hand. (Chorus) My foot stands firm upon the plain, a place both sure and broad; Among the congregations there I’ll bless the Lord my God. I hate the throng of evil men, their counsel I despise; Among the wicked I will not sit down nor take their side. In innocence I wash my hands and round Your altar go; That I with thankful voice may tell the works Your wonders show. O Lord, I love Your dwelling place, the house where You abide; The place where all Your glory dwells with honor there inside. (Chorus) My foot stands firm upon the plain, a place both sure and broad; Among the congregations there I’ll bless the Lord my God. O gather not my soul with those whose sinful paths are trod; Nor with the men of blood whose hands are filled with bribes, O God. But as for me, in integrity my daily walk shall be; Redeem me, Lord, be merciful, in grace remember me. (Chorus) My foot stands firm upon the plain, a place both sure and broad; Among the congregations there I’ll bless the Lord my God.
