Lord, to my relief draw near,
for never was more pressing need;
For my deliv'rance, Lord, appear,
and add to that deliv'rance speed.
Confusion on their heads return,
who to destroy my soul combine;
Let them, defeated, blush and mourn,
ensnared in their own vile design.
Their doom let desolation be,
with shame their malice be repaid,
Who mocked my confidence in thee,
and sport of my affliction made.
While those, who humbly seek thy face,
to joyful triumph shall be raised,
And all, who prize thy saving grace,
with me shall sing, The Lord be praised!
Thus wretched though I am and poor,
the mighty Lord of me takes care;
Thou, God, who only canst restore,
to my relief with speed repair.
