Psalm Written by Leila Disburg and Peter

First Psalm I have ever written.  Classmate Peter and I wrote this for class.   It is unique because it is written from a woman's perspective.


We praise you O Lord
     for your goodness and mercy.
You are the creator of life
     the giver of every good and perfect gift.
For nine months I felt the growth
     Of your gift.
Even in the pangs of childbirth
     your joy overwhelmed me.
Now I hold this small person
     who I dedicate to you. Selah
