Psalm 40 is a poem of great contrasts. The text reflects many moments of faith including gratitude and lament, patience and urgency. Two songs for you:
Open Us (Psalm 40)
You ask no sacrifice,
you want no offering.
Open us, open us.
We have the ears you made
and we are listening.
Open us, open us.

A Life of Trust
Psalm 40
Deep down in a hole
like where Joseph was thrown by his brothers,
left alone to die
I waited and cried
’til I heard a new song rise,
’til I heard a new song rise
A life of trust, a life of trust
When we are afraid or weak
a life of trust is deepening
A life of trust
Neck deep in the mud,
I remembered my friend Jeremiah
left to ache and starve
I waited and cried
’til I felt my body rise,
’til I felt my body rise
