The floods have lifted up, O Lord,
My anxiety arises and threatens to drown me, O Lord,
The floods have lifted up their voice;
The laundry/unfinished nursery/housework, take your pick, they are all crying out;
The floods lift up their waves.
All that needs to be done is about to overtake me.
The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters,
than all the worries on my mind,
than the mighty waves of the sea.
they will not overtake me.
Your testimonies are very sure;
You have promised to be with me in everything. You have proven yourself to me time and time again. I know I can trust you to be with me even now.
Holiness adorns your house,
As you are with me, in my house, make it holy - set apart - for you. Bring peace in it, even when it seems like a stable. I know you can dwell - even there.
Oh Lord, forever.
