The Book of Psalms

Illustration by Gustave Doré of Saul attempting to kill David

The Book of Psalms is a rich tapestry of worship, prayer, and honest reflection that has shaped the faith and devotion of God’s people for centuries. Composed by David and other inspired writers, the Psalms express the full range of human emotions: joy, sorrow, gratitude, fear, repentance, and hope. Whatever your circumstances, you will find words here that give voice to your own prayers.

At the center of the Psalms is the greatness of God—His faithfulness, mercy, and sovereign rule. Whether crying out for deliverance or giving thanks for blessings, the Psalmists continually point us back to the Lord as our refuge and strength. These ancient songs invite us into authentic relationship with God, teaching us how to worship, how to lament, and how to rejoice in His promises.

The Psalms remind us that God welcomes our honesty and meets us in every season of life. As you read and meditate on these inspired prayers, you’ll find encouragement, comfort, and a deeper hunger to know God more fully.
