[To thee I lift my soul, O Lord]

To thee I lift my soul, O Lord:

2

My God, I trust in thee;

Let me not be asham'd; let not
my foes triumph ov'r me.

3

Yea, let thou none ashamed be

that do on thee attend;
Ashamed let them be, O Lord,
who without cause offend.

4

Thy ways, Lord, shew; teach me thy paths

5

Lead me in truth, teach me;

For of my safety thou art God,
all day I wait on thee.

6

Thy mercies, that most tender are,

do thou, O Lord, remember,
And loving kindnesses; for they
have been of old for ever.

7

Let not the errours of my youth,

nor sins remembred be;
In mercy, for thy goodnesse sake,
O Lord, remember me.

8

The Lord is good and gracious,

He upright is also:
He therefore sinners wil instruct
in wayes that they should go.


9

The meek and lowly he wil guide

in judgement just alway:
To meek and poor afflicted ones
hee'l clearly teach his way.

10

The whole paths of the Lord our God

are truth and mercy sure,
To such as keep his covenant,
and testimonies pure.

11

Now for thine own Names sake, O Lord,

I humbly thee intreat
To pardon mine iniquitie:
for it is very great.

12

What man fears God? him shal he teach

the way that he shal choose.

13

His soul shal dwel at ease, his seed

the earth, as heirs, shal use.

14

The secret of the Lord is with

such as do fear his Name,
And he his holy covenant
wil manifest to them.

15

Towards the Lord my waiting eys

continually are set:
For he it is that shal bring forth
my feet out of the net.

16

O turn thee unto me, O God,

have mercy me upon:
Because I solitary am,
and in affliction.

17

Enlargd the griefs are of my heart:

me from distresse relieve.

18

See mine affliction, & my pain,

and all my sins forgive.

19

Consider thou mine enemies,

because they many are,
And it a cruel hatred is,
which they against me beare.

20

O do thou keep my soul, O God,

do thou deliver me;
Let me not be asham'd, for I
do put my trust in thee.

21

O let integrity and truth

keep me, who thee attend.

22

Redemption, Lord, to Israel

from all his troubles send.
