O Lord, I put my trust in thee,
let nothing work me shame;
As thou art just, deliver me,
and set me free from blame.
Hear me, O Lord, and that anon,
to help me make good speed;
Be thou my rock and house of stone,
my fence in time of need.
For why? as stones thy strength is tried,
thou art my fort and tow'r,
For thy Name s sake be thou my grade,
lead me in thy pow'r.
Pluck thou my feet out of the snare
which they for me have laid;
Thou art my strength, and all my care
is for thy mighty aid.
Into thy hands, Lord, I commit
my soul, which is thy due,
Because thou hast redeem-ed it,
O Lord my God most true.
I hate such folk as will not part
from things to be abhorred;
When they on trifles set their heart,
my trust is in the Lord.
For I will in thy mercy joy,
I see it doth excel;
Thou seest when ought would me annoy,
and know'st my soul full well.
Thou hast not left me in their hand
that would me overcharge;
But thou hast set me out of band,
to walk abroad at large.
