I pray with all my heart; answer me, Lord!
I will obey your decrees.
I cry out to you; rescue me,
that I may obey your laws.
I rise early, before the sun is up;
I cry out for help and put my hope in your words.
I stay awake through the night,
thinking about your promise.
In your faithful love, O Lord, hear my cry;
let me be revived by following your regulations.
Lawless people are coming to attack me;
they live far from your instructions.
But you are near, O Lord,
and all your commands are true.
I have known from my earliest days
that your laws will last forever.
-Psalms 119:145-152 NLT
