Deprofundis clamaui.
Psalme. cxxx.
VV.VV.
An effectuous prayer of hym that for his sinnes had susteyned great afflictions, and not withstanding, he fully trusteth, and assureth him selfe to obteyne mercy and forgeuenes of his synnes, and at length deliuereth from all euilles.
whē daūgers me oppres.
I call, I sigh plain and grone.
Trusting to finde reles.
Heare now, O Lord, my request.
339
And let thyne eares aye be prest,
vnto thys prayer myne.
O Lorde our God if thou way,
our sinnes and them peruse:
Who shall then escape, and say,
I can my selfe excuse?
But Lord thou art mercifull,
and turnest to vs thy grace:
That we with harts most carefull,
should feare before thy face.
In God I put my whole trust,
my soule wayteth on his wyll:
For his promise is most iust,
and I hope therin styll.
My soule to God hath regarde,
wishing for him alway:
More then they that watch and ward,
to see the dauning day.
Let Israell then boldly,
in the Lorde put his trust:
He is that God of mercy,
that his deliuer must.
For he it is that must saue,
Israell from his sinne:
And all suche as surely haue,
their cōfidence in him.
