In Psalms 71, as David advances in age he reflects on the lives of those who have reached the Old Age milestone which he is heading towards. David is taking warning from what he sees in some Senior folks around him.
He wants to avoid the unhappy results that he has witnessed in the elderly age group; caused by them adopting negative traits of character in their earlier years. He recognises that his only safeguard in maintaining a healthy body, mind and Spirit to the end of his life, is total dependence on his loving Creator God. So David prays, KJV Psalms 71:5 For Thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: Thou art my trust from my youth. 9 Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.
In this Psalm David shares the secret of growing old gracefully and gratefully, KJV Psalms 71:23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto Thee; and my soul, which Thou hast redeemed. 24 My tongue also shall talk of Thy righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt.
