1. In thee, O Lord, have I waited; let me not be forever put to shame.
2. Deliver me in thy righteousness and cause me to escape; incline thine ear unto me and save me.
3. Be thou my strong habitation unto which I may continually resort; thou hast given a commandment that I should be saved because thou art my rock and my fortress.
4. Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the perverse and violent man.
5. For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD; thou art my security from my youth.
6. By thee have I been sustained from the womb; thou art he that took me out of my mother’s bowels; my praise has been continually of thee.
7. I am as a wonder unto many, but thou art my strong refuge.
8. Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy glory all the day.
