Psalm 40[a]
1 I waited patiently for the Lord;
he turned to me and heard my cry.
2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
3 He put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear the Lord
and put their trust in him.
Psalms 40 is one of my favorite chapters. I refer to this often to remind myself to wait patiently and He will lift me up and put a new song in my mouth.
