O God, be merciful to me,
For men no mercy show;
With constant warfare pressing me
They seek my overthrow.
When foes invade, I safely rest
Confiding in Thy Word;
I will not dread what man can do
My trust is in the Lord.
I take Thy vows upon me now,
O God, who savest me;
The sacrifice of praise I bring
In gratitude to Thee.
My feet from falling and my soul
From death thou hast restored,
And ever in the light of life
I walk before the Lord.
