Be merciful, O God, to me,
To me who in thy love confide;
To thy protecting love I flee,
Beneath thy wings my soul I hide,
‘Till Satan’s tyranny is o'er,
And cruel sin subsists no more.
To God will I in trouble cry,
Who freely undertakes my cause;
My God most merciful and high
Shall save me from the lion’s jaws,
Destroy him, ready to devour,
With all his works and all his power.
The Lord out of his holy place
His mercy and his truth shall fend:
Jesus is full of truth and grace,
Jesus shall still my soul defend,
While in the toils of hell I lie,
And from the den of lions cry.
Be thou exalted, Lord, above
The highest names in earth and heaven:
Let angels sing thy glorious love,
And bless the name to sinners given:
All earth and heaven their king proclaim;
Bow every knee to ]esu's name.
Thee will I praise among thine own;
Thee will I to the world extol,
And make thy truth and goodness known;
Thy goodness, Lord, is over all;
Thy truth and grace the heavens transcend,
Thy faithful mercies never end.
Be thou exalted, Lord, above
The highest names in earth or heaven;
Let angels sing thy glorious love,
And bless the name to sinners given:
All earth and heaven their king proclaim,
Bow every knee to Jesu’s name.
