The Psalms are a collection of poetry that spans the range of emotion. This includes negative emotions, like shame. Where the feeling of shame tries to compel us to hide, the psalms show that we cannot reveal so much of ourselves to God that he turns away from us.

Shame in the Psalms
Shame is an intense emotion that can affect how we perceive ourselves and our place in the world, and the Psalms perfectly capture this.
