1. I waited for the Lord my God,and patiently did bear;At length to me he did inclinemy voice and cry to hear.
2. He took me from a fearful pit,and from the miry clay,And on a rock he set my feet,establishing my way.
3. He put a new song in my mouth,our God to magnify:Many shall see it, and shall fear,and on the Lord rely.
4. O blessed is the man whose trustupon the Lord relies;Respecting not the proud, nor suchas turn aside to lies.
