Judge me, God of my sal-va-tion,
Plead my cause, for Thee I trust:
Hear my ear-nest sup-pli-ca-tion,
Save me from my foes un-just.
O my soul, why art thou grie-ving?
What dis-qui-ets and dis-mays?
Hope in God; His help re-ceiv-ing,
I shall yet my Sav-ior praise.
For my strength, my God, Thou art: ...
Why am I cast off by Thee
In the sor-row of my heart, ...
While the foe op-pres-ses me?
Light and truth, my way at-tend-ing,
Send Thou forth to be my guide,
Till, Thy ho-ly mount as-cend-ing,
I shall in Thy house a-bide.
At Thy sa-cred al-tar bend-ing,
God, my God, my bound-less joy,
Harp and voice, in wor-ship blend-ing,
For Thy praise will I em-ploy.
O my soul, why art thou grie-ving?
What dis-qui-ets and dis-mays?
Hope in God; His help re-ceiv-ing,
I shall yet my Sav-ior praise.
