Psalm 3 — Morning Prayer for Help

1 Lord, how many my enemies have increased. many have risen up against me. 2 Many were saying about me, “For this one there is no salvation in his God.” 3 But You, O Lord, are my refuge, my glory, and the One who lifts up my head. 4 With my voice I cried out to the Lord, and He answered me from His holy mountain. 5 I lay down and slept, and I woke up, because the Lord is keeping me. 6 I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have lain down all around me. 7 Rise up, Lord, save me, O my God, for You strike the jaw of all my enemies and shatter the teeth of the wicked. 8 Salvation is from the Lord. Let Your blessing be upon Your people.
