Judge me, O God, and plead my cause
Against a godless race;
From men deceitful and unjust
|: Deliver in Thy grace. :|
O Thou the God of all my strength,
Why hast Thou cast me off?
Why go I mourning all the day,
|: While foes oppress and scoff? :|
O send Thou forth Thy light and truth,
Let them be guides to me,
And bring me to Thy holy hill,
|: Thy dwelling-place to see. :|
Then will I to God’s altar go,
To God, my boundless joy;
Yea, God, my God, Thy Name to praise
|: My harp I will employ. :|
Why art thou then cast down, my soul,
What should discourage thee?
And why with vexing thoughts art thou
|: Disquieted in me? :|
Hope thou in God; His praise shall yet
My thankful lips employ;
He is the spring of all my health,
|: My God, my boundless joy. :|
