Habakkuk 3:17-19

17 Whatever happens, I will continue to thank the Lord.

If there are no flowers on the fig trees,

if there are no grapes on the vines,

if there are no olives on the olive trees,

if there are no crops in the fields,

if the sheep are dying in the hills,

if there are no cows on the farms,

18 I will still sing to thank the Lord!

I will be happy because God is the one who makes me safe.

19 The Lord God causes me to be strong.

He makes my feet run safely over the rocks and hills,

like a deer's feet.

This prayer is for the music leader. He must use stringed instruments.
