Published on 8 March 2025 at 09:19

O GOD, DO  NOT  FORSAKE  ME!

 

based on Psalm 71:5, 6, 9, 17, 18

 

 

O GOD, You have taught me from my youth

And to this day I declare Your wondrous works

Now also, when I’m older

And my hair turns gray

O GOD, do not forsake me!

O GOD, do not forsake me!

 

Until I declare Your strength to this generation

Your power to everyone who is to come

Now also, when I’m older

And my hair turns gray

O GOD, do not forsake me!

O GOD, do not forsake me!

 

Don’t make me useless in my old age

Do not forsake me when my strength fails

I’ve leaned on You since birth

You are my Confidence

O GOD, do not forsake me!

O GOD, do not forsake me!

 

Until I declare Your strength to this generation

Your power to everyone who is to come

Now also, when I’m older

And my hair turns gray

O GOD, do not forsake me!

O GOD, do not forsake me!

PSALM   71  (KJV)

For Thou art my hope, O YAHUAH GOD: Thou art my Trust from my youth.

By Thee have I been holden up from the womb: Thou art He that took me out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be continually of Thee.

Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.

17 O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared Thy wondrous works.

18 Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O GOD, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy strength unto this generation, and Thy power to every one that is to come.
