Psalm 59:16-17 But I will sing of your power; yes, I will sing aloud of your mercy in the morning… The morning is my time fixed for my meeting the Lord. What meaning there is in the word "morning"; it is a cluster of rich grapes. Let me crush them and drink the sacred wine. "In the morning " — then God meant me to be at my best in strength and hope; I have not to climb in my weariness; in the night I have buried yesterday's fatigue, and in the morning I take a new lease of energy. Give God thy strength — all thy strength He asks only what He first gave. In the morning — then He may mean to keep me long that He may make me rich. In the morning — then it is an endless road He bids me climb, else how could I reach it ere the sun be set? Sweet morning! there is hope in its music. (Joseph Parker.) Parallel Verses KJV: But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble. |
