Psalms 143 · Grade 3

Lead Me on Level Ground

Name Date

Read the Story

Psalm 143 is titled A Psalm by David. Hear my prayer, Yahweh. David asks for mercy, because in your sight no man living is righteous.

His spirit was overwhelmed. So he remembered the days of old and thought about God's works. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land.

Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good.

Memory Verse

“Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.”

Psalms 143:10 (WEB)
