Psalm 32:1-11 · Psalm 32

1 Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.

2 Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord does not count against him and in whose spirit is no deceit.

3 When I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.

4 For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was sapped as in the heat of summer. Selah

5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the Lord "- and you forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah

6 Therefore let everyone who is godly pray to you while you may be found; surely when the mighty waters rise, they will not reach him.

7 You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah

8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you.

9 Do not be like the horse or the mule, which have no understanding but must be controlled by bit and bridle or they will not come to you.

10 Many are the woes of the wicked, but the Lord 's unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him.

11 Rejoice in the Lord and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart!

#9 – Elton John
#8 – Joni Mitchell
#7 – Paul Simon
#6 – Mick Jagger
#5 - Neil Young
#4 - Paul McCarty
#3 - Bruce Springsteen
#2 - John Lennon

Who wants to guess who they said was the #1 songwriter of all time?

#1 – Bob Dylan

I really have no qualms with that list except for the number one position. I don’t agree with who they put #1. I would have no problem putting Bob Dylan as #2 and moving everyone down the list one slot, but in my humble, but extremely accurate opinion, the greatest, most prolific songwriter of all time was a king by the name of David.
