O Lord, by Thee delivered,
I Thee with songs extol;
My foes Thou hast not suffered
to glory o’er my fall.
O Lord, my God, I sought Thee,
and Thou didst heal and save;
Thou, Lord, from death didst ransom
and keep me from the grave.
His holy Name remember,
ye saints, give thanks and praise;
His anger lasts a moment,
His favor all our days;
For sorrow, like a pilgrim,
may tarry for a night,
But joy the heart will gladden
when dawns the morning light.
In prosperous days I boasted,
“Unmoved I shall remain”;
For Lord, Thy good favor
my cause didst maintain;
I soon was sorely troubled,
for Thou didst hide Thy face;
I cried to Thee, Jehovah,
I sought Jehovah’s grace.
What profit if I perish,
if life Thou dost not spare?
Shall dust repeat Thy praises,
shall it Thy truth declare?
O Lord, on me have mercy,
and my petition hear;
That Thou mayst be my Helper,
in mercy, Lord, appear.
My grief is turned to gladness,
to Thee my thanks I raise;
Who hast removed my sorrow
and girded me with praise;
And now, no longer silent,
my heart Thy praise will sing;
O Lord, my God, forever
my thanks to Thee I bring.
