Mine or one of them has to be Psalm 23:
"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever."
A new favorite Psalm today: Psalm 107:1-43 The first three verses alone are …comforting.
O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endures for ever. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy.
another version: Oh give thanks to the LORD, for He is good, For His lovingkindness is everlasting. let the redeemed say (so), Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the adversary.
Yet another version (because it has become an favorite) Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever.
Has the Lord redeemed you? Then speak out!
Tell others he has redeemed you from your enemies.
Why it stands out to me so much is …His lovingkindness is everlasting…Let those redeemed of the Lord say so.
Hi @VictoryinJesus Thanks for your comments.
Psalm 107 also has the section, 'They that go down to the sea in ships....' It has a moving ending: 'So He bringeth them to their desired haven'.
This reminds me of the believer's heavenly harbour. As in view in the Lord's Supper, 'till He come' (1 Corinthians 11.26).
It also reminds me of Judith Durham's lyrics from well over 50 years ago: 'all bound for Morningtown, many miles away'.
Psalm 17.15: 'I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.'
Psalm 30.5: 'Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.'

@Faithbuilders We read about David as a young man in Scripture and as an old man also: a range of ages when God remained indeed with him....

Favorite psalm...that's like asking, "Who's your favorite child?"
All of them! Though I do like Psalm 23 and sing it regularly to remind myself of the Lord's great faithfulness!
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He guides me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul.
La, da, da, la da da da da, la, da, da, da...da, da, da.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil. -La, da, da...
For you are, you are with me.
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
In the presence of my enemies. - La, da, da...
You anoint my head with oil.
My cup, it overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
All the days of my life.
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Hallelujah!
Thank You Lord, for Your word.
Thank You Lord, for Your Son.
Thank You Lord, for Your Spirit.
Thank You Lord, that I believe!
