Charles Spurgeon comments on our psalm today, Psalm 56.
Be merciful unto me, O God. In my deep distress my soul turns to you, my God. Man has no mercy on me, therefore double your mercy to me. If your justice has let loose my enemies, let your mercy shorten their chain. It is sweet to see how the tender dove like spirit of the psalmist flies to the most tender attribute for support in the hour of peril.
