Psalm 16 by The Corner Room Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Preserve me, O God
For in You I take refuge
I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
I have no good apart from You
Apart from You."

[Verse 2]
As for the saints in the land
They are the excellent ones
In whom is all my delight
The sorrows of those who run after another god
Shall multiply

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Their drink offerings of blood
I will not pour out
Or take their names on my lips

[Chorus 1]
The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup
You hold my lot
The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places
Indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance
A beautiful inheritance
[Verse 3]
I bless the Lord
Who gives me counsel
In the night also my heart instructs me
I have set the Lord always before me
Because He is at my right hand
I shall not be shaken

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Therefore my heart is glad
And my whole being rejoices
My flesh also dwells secure

[Chorus 2]
For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol
Or let Your holy one see corruption

[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
You make known to me the path of life
In your presence there is fullness of joy
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore
You make known to me the path of life
In your presence there is fullness of joy
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore
