Psalm 31:5 Into your hands I commit my spirit.

Jesus must have known this particular psalm well—he said these exact words as he died on the cross. His work on earth was finished, and he freely gave himself over to the Father. He was never apart from those hands of God, maybe it was for the benefit of those standing by that he spoke. Or maybe the Psalm was just in there, and needed to come out.
