** Psalm 71 is thought to be a prayer of an elderly man facing the challenges of old age, declining strength, and encroaching enemies who believe his vulnerability makes him an easy target. The psalmist, likely David or someone speaking with his voice, reflects on a life of trusting God, from youth through old age. This psalm is a powerful declaration of faith that God's refuge and strength have remained unchanging despite life's struggles.

** Psalm 71 - World English Bible (WEB)

1 In you, Yahweh, I take refuge.
Never let me be disappointed.

2 Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me.
Turn your ear to me, and save me.

3 Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go.
Give the command to save me,
for you are my rock and my fortress.

4 Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked,
from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

5 For you are my hope, Lord Yahweh;
my confidence from my youth.

6 I have relied on you from the womb.
You are he who took me out of my mother's womb.
I will always praise you.

7 I am a marvel to many,
but you are my strong refuge.

8 My mouth shall be filled with your praise,
with your honor all day long.

9 Don't reject me in my old age.
Don't forsake me when my strength fails.

10 For my enemies talk about me.
Those who watch for my soul conspire together,

** Psalm 71 Blues - Song Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Well, I take my refuge, Lord, in You,
Don't let me be ashamed, don't let me feel blue.
Rescue me righteous, hear me when I call,
Be my rock and fortress, don't let me fall.

(Chorus)
Oh, Yahweh, Yahweh, be my strength today,
From my youth 'til gray, never lead me astray.
Oh, Yahweh, Yahweh, stand close by my side,
With Your faithful love as my only guide.

(Verse 2)
From my mother's womb, Lord, You brought me near,
Now in my old age, be my shield right here.
My enemies whisper, think I'm too weak,
But You're my strong refuge, in You I'll speak.

(Chorus)
Oh, Yahweh, Yahweh, be my strength today,
From my youth 'til gray, never lead me astray.
Oh, Yahweh, Yahweh, stand close by my side,
With Your faithful love as my only guide.

(Verse 3)
Troubles all around me, trying to bring me down,
But I sing Your praises, won't let them steal my crown.
Let my mouth be filled with Your glory and might,
My soul's redeemed, Lord, in Your holy light.

(Chorus)
Oh, Yahweh, Yahweh, be my strength today,
From my youth 'til gray, never lead me astray.
Oh, Yahweh, Yahweh, stand close by my side,
With Your faithful love as my only guide.

(Outro)
Yes, even when gray and old, don't forsake me now,
I'll tell of Your wonders, I'll shout and bow.
With a song in my soul, and a harp in my hand,
I'll praise You forever, 'til I reach that promised land.
