Psalm 27

ALL: 1 The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear?
  The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?

LEADER: 4 One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek:

ALL: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
  to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.

LEADER: 5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling;
  he will hide me in the shelter of his holiness and set me high upon a rock.

ALL: 7 Hear my voice when I call, Lord; be merciful to me and answer me.

LEADER: 8 My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, Lord, I will seek.

LEADER: 14 Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord!

Psalm 1

Leader: 1 Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked,
  or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.

ALL: 2 But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night.

Leader: 3 They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season.

ALL: Their leaves never wither,
  and they prosper in all they do.

Leader: 4 But not the wicked!
  They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind.
  5 They will be condemned at the time of judgment.
  Sinners will have no place among the godly.

ALL: 6 For the Lord watches over the path of the godly,
  but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

Psalm 34:1-10

Leader: 1 I will praise the Lord at all times.
I will constantly speak his praises.

ALL: 2 I will boast only in the Lord;
let all who are helpless take heart.

Leader: 3 Come, let us tell of the Lord’s greatness; let us exalt his name together.

ALL: 4 I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears.

Leader: 5 Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy;
no shadow of shame will darken their faces.

ALL: 6 In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened;
he saved me from all my troubles.

Leader: 8 Taste and see that the Lord is good.
Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!

ALL: 9 Fear the Lord, you his godly people,
for those who fear him will have all they need.

Leader: 10 Even strong young lions sometimes go hungry, but those who trust in the Lord will lack no good thing.

ALL: 2 I will boast only in the Lord;
let all who are helpless take heart.
