Psalms
The Book of Psalms is the primary worship book of the Bible, a collection of 150 sacred songs, prayers, and poems written by various authors, primarily King David. These songs express the full range of human emotion: joy, praise, gratitude, sorrow, anger, doubt, and hope. The Psalms are traditionally grouped into five books, covering different types of worship: psalms of praise, laments, royal psalms, wisdom psalms, and historical psalms. They served as the ancient Jewish hymn book and continue to be a central resource for worship, meditation, and spiritual guidance for both Jews and Christians, teaching believers how to communicate openly and honestly with God in every circumstance of life.
A song of confidence: "I lift up my eyes to the hills—where does my help come from?" Help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
A song of joy for Jerusalem: "I was glad when they said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the Lord.'" A prayer for the city’s peace and prosperity.
A simple, earnest prayer to God in heaven. The psalmist asks for mercy and deliverance from the mockery and contempt of the proud.
A national hymn of deliverance: "If the Lord had not been on our side." The psalm thanks God for rescuing Israel from their enemies' overwhelming anger.
