Last part: A lesson from Psalm 121
· Here is a poem that explains each verse and each word picture in Psalm 121. First, compare it with the translation in your Bible. This will help you to understand the parts of Psalm 121 that may seem difficult. Then use the poem again when you pray. Perhaps you have had experiences like those that the author of Psalm 121 had. Then you will be able to make the poem into your own prayer to God.
A song for the journey to Jerusalem.
[1] Let me look up again at the hills.
Let me know where my help comes from.
[2] My help comes from God, who made both heaven and earth.
[3] God takes care of you as you travel.
Every step of the way will be safe.
He is watching you constantly.
He will not become tired.
[4] God is Israel’s guard at all times.
He does not become tired and he does not sleep.
[5] God is your personal guard.
He is like a shelter that is right by you.
[6] So you are safe.
The sun cannot hurt you during the day.
The moon cannot hurt you by night.
[7] God protects you from every danger,
Your life is safe because he takes care of you.
[8] God protects you when you come.
God protects you when you go.
He protects you now.
He protects you always.
