Misc Praise Songs – Psalm 16D (Guitar)

     C         Em             F          C
Preserve me, O God, for I'm trusting in You.

       F           C         Am          G
"Yes, You are my Master," I said to the Lord;

    C         Em         F       G
Besides You I do not posses any good.

    Am        C         F       G   C
In Your holy messengers I take delight.

        C         Em          F        C
Those running to idols will multiply griefs.

   F             C                Am          G
I will not pour out their drink offerings of blood,

     C         Em               F            G
Nor will I confess their vain names with my lips.

     Am          C        F      G   C
The Lord's my inherited portion and cup.

     C          Em              F            C
You care for my lot, where the lines fell to me,

      F           C       Am       G
My pleasant and lovely inherited land.

     C              Em        F           G
The LORD who gives council to me I will bless,

     Am        C           F           G    C
For surely my mind teaches me through the night.

     C         Em            F     C
The LORD ever present before me I keep.

     F            C            Am            G
He stands at my right hand; I shall not be moved.

     C       Em         F            G
My glory rejoices, my heart is made glad;

     Am       C               F    G   C
And also my flesh will live safely at ease.

     C           Em        F            C
For You'll not abandon my soul to the grave,

       F        C           Am          G
Your godly one You will preserve from decay.

        C             Em            F           G
Life's path You will show me; full joy is with You;

      Am                C           F    G   C
Your right hand holds pleasures for me evermore.
