Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.
A prayer you can borrow when you feel alone: turn to me, Lord, and have mercy on me.
KJV13His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. 14The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. 15Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. 16Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted. 17The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses. 18Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins. 19Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.
Israel’s prayer book: songs of trust, lament, thanks and praise, many of them by David.
Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
There is nowhere you can go where God is not, and even there His hand will lead you.
And the Lord, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
The Lord goes ahead of you and stays with you. You are not walking alone.
Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
Even if a mother could forget her child, God says, I will not forget you.
