This year we are doing something a bit different for Scripture memorization.  In order to earn a trip to Snow Camp, among other requirements, we are expecting our teens to memorize and be able to recite an entire passage.  If they learn 1 verse per week, adding to what they already know, they will be able to do the entire passage when required in December.

Psalm 86:1-13

1 Hear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.

2 Guard my life, for I am devoted to you. You are my God; save your servant who trusts in you.

3 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I call to you all day long.

4 Bring joy to your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

5 You are forgiving and good, O Lord, abounding in love to all who call to you.

6 Hear my prayer, O LORD; listen to my cry for mercy.

7 In the day of my trouble I will call to you, for you will answer me.

8 Among the gods there is none like you, O Lord; no deeds can compare with yours.

9 All the nations you have made will come and worship before you, O Lord; they will bring glory to your name.

10 For you are great and do marvelous deeds; you alone are God.

11 Teach me your way, O LORD, and I will walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name.

12 I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify your name forever.
 
13 For great is your love toward me; you have delivered me from the depths of the grave.
