Vs. 81 — My soul faints for Your salvation, But I hope in Your word.

Le Blanc:

“I hope in thy word:” i.e. I hope beyond anything I understand, and beyond anything I can possibly do, and beyond anything I deserve, and beyond all carnal and spiritual consolations, for I desire and look for Thee only. I seek Thee, not Thine: I long to hear “Thy word,” that I may obey it in patience and meekness. (Spurgeon, C. H. (2009). The treasury of David: Psalms 111-119 (Vol. 5, p. 309). Bellingham, WA: Logos Bible Software.)

Prayer:

My God, in Whom I trust, my soul faints for Your salvation, but I hope in Your word. Though my heart is overwhelmed; though my mind is under siege; though discouragement, despair, and weariness weigh upon my soul, I will keep my eyes upon You. I will go to Your word and find refuge. There I will go and camp–in Your word, for Your promises bring healing, comfort, and hope. Your words are like ointment upon my wounds and weariness. Let Thy Spirit refresh my soul according to Thy word.
