Psalm 31:1-5, 19-24
Epiphany 9 — Proper 4 (9) - Year A
be steadfastly courageous
act as though assured of refuge
assumed haughtiness
desires entitlement
claimed through
a contentious tongue
assured of refuge
be steadfast in courage
blind to self-traps
too far below
what is deserved
we trip over ourselves
freed from expectation
comes expansive new refuges
desires entitlement
a contentious tongue
be steadfast in courage
too far below
we trip over ourselves
comes expansive new refuges
