Lord, bow thine ear to my request,
and hear me speedily:
For with great pain and grief oppressed,
full poor and weak am I:
Preserve my soul, because my ways
and doings holy be;
And save thy servant, O my God,
that puts his trust in thee.
Thy mercy upon me express,
and me defend alway;
For through the day, I do not cease
to thee, O Lord, to pray;
Comfort thy servant's soul, I pray,
that now with pain is pined;
For unto thee I do alway
lift up my soul and mind.
For thou art good and bountiful,
thy gifts of grace are free;
Also thy mercy plentiful
to all that call on thee.
O Lord, likewise when I do pray,
regard and give an ear;
Mark well the words that I do say,
all my petitions hear.
In time when trouble doth me move,
to thee I do complain;
For why? I know and well do prove,
thou answer'st me again.
Among the gods, O Lord, is none
with thee to be compared;
And none can do as thou hast done,
the like has not been heard.
