1. I cry out to the Lord. I beg the Lord to help me.
2. I tell him my problems; I tell him about my troubles.
3. I am ready to give up. But you, Lord, know the path I am on, and you know that my enemies have set a trap for me.
4. I look around, and I don’t see anyone I know. I have no place to run. There is no one to save me.
5. Lord, I cry out to you for help: “You are my place of safety. You are all I need in life.”
6. Listen to my prayer. I am so weak. Save me from those who are chasing me. They are stronger than I am.
