Psalm 71

A prayer from old age. "Do not discard me in my old age; do not forsake me when my strength fails." The old man has leaned on God since birth and wants to keep telling the next generation. He admits God has shown him "many troubles," and still expects to be revived again. Hope grows "more and more" with age.

"Though You have shown me many troubles and misfortunes, You will revive me once again. Even from the depths of the earth You will bring me back up." (Psalm 71:20)
