A new Psalm - The Lord is My Pilot

The Lord is my pilot and I shall not want

When I surrender to his command I lack nothing

He makes me comfortable and secure in my seat either in the aisle or by the window - even in the middle seat he looks after me

He takes the aircraft higher and higher

Into safe air spaces and he restores my soul

He navigates the best way through the air for me - choosing the altitude that suits me best

He does this for his names sake

And even though I might encounter some turbulence which seems like the shadow of death

Especially then I trust in him as my captain

Then I don’t fear because I know he is in the cockpit and he knows what he is doing

His skill and his sovereignty

It comforts me

Even in the darkest of times when it seems like the clouds and strong winds are going to cause me to crash into the sea, He anoints my head and I feel safe

Because when I surrender to him, my pilot , his goodness, his mercy, his love go before me and make safe passage

All the days of my life

As I dwell in the safe place with Him

In the clouds

And as I put my feet on solid ground

Wherever he flies me, I am with him

Forever
