Psalms 55:16-21 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

16. I'll call on God: God will me save.

17. I'll pray, and make a noiseAt ev'ning, morning, and at noon;and he shall hear my voice.

18. He hath my soul delivered,that it in peace might beFrom battle that against me was;for many were with me.

19. The Lord shall hear, and them afflict,of old who hath abode:Because they never changes have,therefore they fear not God.

20. 'Gainst those that were at peace with himhe hath put forth his hand:The covenant that he had made,by breaking he profan'd.

21. More smooth than butter were his words,while in his heart was war;His speeches were more soft than oil,and yet drawn swords they are.
