1. I’ve taken refuge in you, Lord.Don’t let me ever be put to shame!
2. Deliver me and rescue me by your righteousness!Bend your ear toward me and save me!
3. Be my rock of refugewhere I can always escape.You commanded that my life be savedbecause you are my rock and my fortress.
4. My God, rescue me from the power of the wicked;rescue me from the grip of the wrongdoer and the oppressor
5. because you are my hope, Lord.You, Lord, are the one I’ve trusted since childhood.
6. I’ve depended on you from birth—you cut the cord when I came from my mother’s womb.My praise is always about you.
7. I’ve become an example to many peoplebecause you are my strong refuge.
8. My mouth is filled with your praise,glorifying you all day long.
9. Don’t cast me off in old age.Don’t abandon me when my strength is used up!
