Psalm 52, 54, 56 and 59). Singing this song, certainly the first part of it, we acknowledge as believers that we are counted amongst the friends of God\u2019s King and that our life in the present is one of opposition and suffering. Nevertheless, we do have hope that things will change, hope of glory to come that is tied to the life and death of God\u2019s King.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lyrics and sheet music<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gksaportaal.co.za\/worship\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/57A_L.pdf\">Psalm 57A Lyrics<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/gksaportaal.co.za\/worship\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/57A_SM.pdf\">Psalm 57A Sheet Music (CM, TABLER)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gksaportaal.co.za\/worship\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/57B_L.pdf\">Psalm 57B Lyrics<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/gksaportaal.co.za\/worship\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/57B_SM.pdf\">Psalm 57B Sheet Music (CM, SUNDERLAND)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Audio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/music.youtube.com\/watch?v=W7g-aB3QkS0\">Psalm 57A &#8211;
