Psalm 151: a psalm of Katherine

What are you, o mountain?
     that you dare to rise up against this daughter
     of the LORD Most High?
Your power & height will be split like an atom
by God, the Creator of the Universe.
In the valley & from the peaks, I will bless His Name forever.
 
Where are you, o storm?
     You came with dark clouds 
     and raging winds
Then the Lord stretched forth His arm
to calm you to a sweet coastal breeze.
In the day & through the night, I will sing praises to the Lord.

Who are you, Shelob?
     With corruption & wickedness 
     you spin a web of debt.
Make haste to flee, 
for the LORD God is coming to flush you.
I will dance with Joy in the Presence of the King
                                                                   Selah

On You, I rest my hope Oh Lord!
Hope of marriage & family; 
Hope of provision & covering;
Hope of creativity & anointing for ministry.

In the company of friends,
I will testify of Your goodness & faithfulness;
I will tell of peace unexplainable 
and joy in the journey.

In solace, I rejoice to see You coming,
riding on the clouds with joy & victory.
I lift my hands in praise to You; 
and declare:
"I love You with my whole heart!"
