“Wonder, Worship, and Surrender”

Psalm 19 (ESV)

The heavens declare the glory of God, 

and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. 

2  Day to day pours out speech, 

and night to night reveals knowledge. 

3  There is no speech, nor are there words, 

whose voice is not heard. 

4  Their voice goes out through all the earth, 

and their words to the end of the world. 

In them he has set a tent for the sun, 

5  which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber, 

and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy. 

6  Its rising is from the end of the heavens, 

and its circuit to the end of them, 

and there is nothing hidden from its heat. 

7  The law of the Lord is perfect, 

reviving the soul; 

the testimony of the Lord is sure, 

making wise the simple; 

8  the precepts of the Lord are right, 

rejoicing the heart; 

the commandment of the Lord is pure, 

enlightening the eyes; 

9  the fear of the Lord is clean, 

enduring forever; 

the rules of the Lord are true, 

and righteous altogether. 

10  More to be desired are they than gold, 

even much fine gold; 

sweeter also than honey 

and drippings of the honeycomb. 

11  Moreover, by them is your servant warned; 

in keeping them there is great reward. 

12  Who can discern his errors? 

Declare me innocent from hidden faults. 

13  Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins; 

let them not have dominion over me! 

Then I shall be blameless, 

and innocent of great transgression. 

14  Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart 

be acceptable in your sight, 

O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
