Strong Legs
I've had some pretty harrowing near death experiences. I faced cancer, got shot at in the wee hours of the morning in front of a bar in Inglewood CA, was in a motorcycle accident at 70mph, and had a .45 held to my temple by a crazy ex-cop! I wasn't alone

Psalm 41
Even though I'd known that the Psalms were divided into 5 books for most of my life, until I wrote this, I didn't know that the last verse (or so) of the last Psalm of each Book was a doxology. Psalm 41 is the final Psalm of Book 1, ending in a doxology.
