5 But I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation.
6 I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me.
Focused Passage
Psalms 13:5-6
From Forsaken Lament to Trust in the LORD’s Unfailing Love
The psalm moves from repeated questions of abandonment, to urgent petitions for divine attention and life, to renewed trust in the LORD’s unfailing love and a vow to sing because the LORD has dealt bountifully with him.
