Prayer to God in Time of Trouble
1 Vindicate ame, O God,
And bplead my cause against an ungodly nation;
Oh, deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man!
And bplead my cause against an ungodly nation;
Oh, deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man!
2 For You are the God of my strength;
Why do You cast me off?
aWhy do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
Why do You cast me off?
aWhy do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
3 aOh, send out Your light and Your truth!
Let them lead me;
Let them bring me to bYour holy hill
And to Your1 tabernacle.
Let them lead me;
Let them bring me to bYour holy hill
And to Your1 tabernacle.
4 Then I will go to the altar of God,
To God my exceeding joy;
And on the harp I will praise You,
O God, my God.
To God my exceeding joy;
And on the harp I will praise You,
O God, my God.
5 aWhy are you cast down, O my soul?
And why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God;
For I shall yet praise Him,
The1 help of my countenance and my God.
And why are you disquieted within me?
Hope in God;
For I shall yet praise Him,
The1 help of my countenance and my God.
